Because you may install a plugin from a third-party author that you don't trust, you can activate X-Setup Pro's "Safe Mode". If this mode is activated, X-Setup Pro will ask you before the plugin will change anything on your system. These security measures apply to X-Setup Pro Wizards as well, since wizards are based on plugin technology.
If a plugin tries to change anything on your computer (for example, write a registry value, change an INI value, delete a file etc.), a message appears displaying what the plugin tries to do and if the plugin should be allowed to perform this action. If you select "No" in this dialog, the plugin is not allowed to perform the action and will be shut down. No changes are made to your system in this case.
You can either click on the 
Safe Mode icon on the 
Toolbar (symbolized by
a padlock), or click on the File
Menu and choose 'Safe Mode'. You can always check to see if Safe Mode
is activated, since the padlock icon on the toolbar and on the File menu
is 'depressed'. To disable Safe Mode, just click on the padlock again.
Click on the 'Config...' button at any time while using the Wizard. Then, on the 'Security' tab, put a tick besides the 'Activate Safe Mode' option. Then click 'OK'.
Even if Safe Mode is not activated, X-Setup Pro performs several security checks:
Changes will only be allowed when the "Apply Changes" button is pressed - if any plugin tries to make changes somewhere else it will be shut down automatically.
If a command a plugin performs fails (for example it tries to copy the file LOGO.SYS and this file does not exist) it will also be shut down
The plugin is only allowed to execute within 30 seconds. If any action takes longer than this, the plugin will be shut down
Other security checks will perform when a command inside the plugin is invoked. For example, if the plugin tries to remove a path from the registry and this path contains sub-values, the plugin will also be shut down. Plugins, which try to change X-Setup Pro's settings will be shut down as well.
