How to Manage NoDBE in E3-2017
For my Engineers i need to hide the library editor mode to avoid doing themselves in database.For that i need to block the database editor mode permanently for them.How can i achieve this using registry entries?

I don't think you can permanently disable it through the registry. I suppose you could force a workspace configuration on your users which removes the option to start the DBE.
Can't you just manage the write permissions on your library? That's what I do.

Hi Mohamed,
You can add /nodbe to the E3 shortcut target and this will hide the Tools>Start Database Editor.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Zuken\E3.series_201X\E3.series.exe" /cable /nodbe
Likewise, as Paul Bloom mentioned, you should set read-only permissions to the library for your users.

@Paul-my intention is to block the user to start DBE mode only(from the tools me nu as wellas from the right click on the db)
@Khang Nguyen- nodbe on short cut is one of the option,but in our case we need to deploy this setting to more than 100 users at a time and infuture it is 450+, and for me it is easy that if an registry entry or any script do the task then for me it is easy to manage.Was this Helpful?

For mass deployment, you can consider writing a batch script to push the shortcut to:
Start Menu:
"C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Zuken\E3.series 201X\"
Desktop:
C:\Users\Public\Desktop

A "smart" user can always modify a shortcut. If you do it with permissions, it doesn't even matter if they can start DBE; they couldn't do anything if they did.

I would agree with the suggestion from Paul - the best method is to make the database read only
