Great advice! I'm glad I Stumbled onto this.

If anyone has the message:

** The above autotuninglevel setting is the result of Windows Scaling heuristics
overriding any local/policy configuration on at least one profile.

It's a very simple fix.

Simply type in:

netsh int tcp set heuristics disabled

Happy browsing, everyone!

When I did this, and re-checked the status of the Auto tuning, it remained unchanged, and below the diagnostics, it read "The above autotuninglevel setting is the result of Windows scaling heuristics overriding any local policy/configuration."

What would cause this?

Woohoo!! I feel all 'techy'....a definite 1st.
For those of you who are as computer illiterate as myself, give it a go. Mine seemed to work after using the 2nd option. I didn't see any improvement with the 'restricted' option but I can see the results now...I'm impressed.
And to the lovely author-I send many thanks for sharing your knowledge, it is appreciated.

Greetings!!! I like this!! it worked!! I would like to have more of this as I would like to have more control over the Command line commands in Vista or any OS. I'm not only looking for stuff like this but i'm also looking for faster boot up speeds., so if you all can give me that? and accelerator speeds? then please Keep these tips comming. I would also like to change the Command line lettering to green. Can you tell me how to do that? Thanks.

To the people having trouble with "Set global command failed on IPv4 The requested operation requires elevation", elevation = Administrator (i.e. the UAC dialog prompt for elevation). In other words, you didn't follow the directions. Left-click the Start menu, locate the Command Prompt (typically in the Accessories menu) and, while hovering over the Command Prompt, right-click. There should be an option to run that application as Administrator. You will be prompted to elevate the program prior to running it. Then try the 'netsh' commands again.

It worked for me, but the other way 'round:
Autotuning was set to "highlyrestricted" by default and turning it restricted or disabling it, didn't show any effect - but setting it to normal really increased my browsing speed.

Anyway - Thanks for the great hint!!!

Ok, I may be the only person who had this problem after this hack but I figure I should write about it anyway.

I am running a Vista 64Bit Vista Premium and shortly after I applied this hack, the computer simply froze. I did a virus scan and all the things we're supposed to do but I came up with no results.

Vista went through its restore process and the everything seemed fine except for the last line that read 'Auto Tuning Error In System Area'.

My system works fine now, but it gave me a headache beyond belief. I am not certain that this hack is the reason why it went crazy, but I didn't make any changes other than this one.

With that said, I blame myself for doing something I didn't need. I have 8 gigs of ram on this machine but for some idiotic reason, I thought I could totally have my browser speed be better.

Lesson learned.

PS. I am not trying to diss this hack in any way, but from what I gathered, Vista is still fragile and new to be tampered with.

My Acer PC was already set to disable autotuning, stock.
