Because you have to edit ifw.ini file and add the line PHYLockUseReg=0 under [Options]
This way IFW bypasses the registry's settings.
That's already there.
By the way, does that PHYLock setting control more than just PHYLock?
Then add Priority=x, x being 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.

It controls the items on the phylock/vss tab (or what is shown in the manual for the [phylock_options] section (phylock/vss settings). vss didn't exist when phylock did.

Yes, Bob. I mentioned Priority=x early in this thread.
I just thought that it may have been possible to add it to the GUI like some other backup applications that I've used.
I can live without it.

I understand that.
I was just curious and confused as to why a PHYLock setting was mentioned as a possible solution to setting CPU process priority.
