How do you switch off the 'save settings on exit'?

if i wish to make changes and then switch off, the 'save settings' saves all
the changes i made, and if there the wrongs settings then its to late to
reverse them back.

I hope you understand this, you could switch it off on windows 98, so it
should be able to do the same with XP.

help is always appreciated
 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explore

1 = Do not save settings

If XP Pro...
Start | Run | Type: gpedit.msc | OK |
Navigate to...
Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Desktop\
Don't save settings at exit
