Hello Query King..

When you already blocked the USB from registry, now please try below steps…

 Type %windir%\infin RUN dialog box and press Enter. It'll open "inf" folder.

  1. Now look for following 2 files:
  • usbstor.inf
  • usbstor.pnf
  1. Now you have to change their user permissions setting. Do as following for each file:

Right-click on the file and select "Properties". Go to "Security" tab and select the desired user or group in "Group or user names" list which you want to restrict from using USB drives. Now in "Permissions for Users" list, click on "Deny" checkbox next to "Full control" option and then click on OK.

 

Now users will not be able to install any USB device in system.

 

You may use some third party tools as well to block the USB ports.
