Turn off CtrlZ (Undo) in Windows File Explorer: If you accidentally switch from an app to File Explorer without realizing it, then press Ctrl Z to undo on the app, Windows will undo your last action on File Explorer without any warning! This way, you might accidentally delete some important files without even realizing it! Ctrl Z for File Explorer is a very risky action, especially if you plan to cancel on another application! I've accidentally undone operations in File Explorer several times! So now is the time to completely disable this dangerous Windows feature! Watch this video to learn how.

If you accidentally switch from software/app to File Explorer and press CtrlZ, you could accidentally delete your files!

IMPORTANT: It's much easier to miss that you accidentally pressed CtrlZ if you have 2 screens!

NOTE: If you accidentally undo, you can easily undo by right-clicking an empty space in File Browser and selecting Undo or Ctrl Y!

IMPORTANT: the DWORD name must be exactly like /"MaxUndoItems/"!

MaxUndoItems 0 by default

The MaxUndoItems value is the maximum number of undoes you want to allow File Explorer to perform! So setting it to 0 completely disables undo. For example, if you set MaxUndoItems to 2, you can undo 2 actions.

Now Ctrl Z no longer works. Even after right-clicking on an empty space in File Explorer, you won't get Undo or Redo options!

Another useless Windows feature to disable!
