Using this .adm file I can successfully disable USB Storage devices. But is there a way to prevent write access to them without disabling the read functionality. We have a number of kiosk machines that allow users to display powerpoint presentations etc. We'd like to still allow this but prevent people from taking files off the machines. Thanks
