Disable Low Disk space notifications in Windows XP

Low disk space notifications may become really annoying once your diskspace becomes low. It irritates you all while working. This is how to disable it. As usual it involves registry trick. Make sure you backup copy of registry before try editing it. Also make sure that you do nothing wrong while editing.
Start>Run
Type regedit
This opens registry editor. Browse to the following key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Put 00000001 to the dword entry "NoLowDiskSpaceChecks". Create the entry if it is not there.
You may have to restart your computer to changes to make effect.
Put value to 00000000 to restore old setting.
