(Windows Registry) Add TheGun editor to your registry - johngh

Tue, 13 Sep 2011 03:10:03 GMT

TheGun is a great Windows Notepad replacement, but it's a bit painful in how it registers itself when you choose it to open a file. If you save it in "C:\Program Files\TheGun\THEGUN.EXE" and add something this to your registry, it should work nicely.

(Windows Registry) Disable Windows Share Drag and Drop Confirmation caused by IE 7 on XP SP3 - karlhorky

Thu, 22 Jul 2010 04:27:02 GMT

Internet Explorer 7 under Windows XP Service Pack 3 has the Windows Registry "Reserved Value" 180D set that was not set before, which can cause a "Do you want to move or copy files from this zone?" prompt on moves or copies between Windows shares if they are incorrectly detected as being part of the Internet Zone. The registry solution in this snippet will disable this confirmation message. References: "Reserved value" 180D (Microsoft.com: Internet Explorer security zones registry entries for advanced users): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182569 Discussion of Windows Registry solution: http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windowsxp.general&tid=6f434a2d-cb47-47c4-b73a-f85459d27c51&cat=en_US_91a15a1e-b269-4291-b6b4-dc2d504ce9ef&lang=en&cr=US&sloc=en-us&m=1&p=1 "Do you want to move or copy files from this zone?"

(Windows Registry) Windows Registry: Set open folder default icons for all A-Z drive letters and Desktop Shell Folder in Windows 7 - karlhorky

Sat, 10 Apr 2010 18:16:09 GMT

Based upon the Drive Icon Change Windows Vista tweak and the shell icons registry settings found at the respective links below, this Windows 7 / Vista tweak will set the default icon of all A-Z drive letters (like C: for instance) and the Desktop to the open folder icon that Windows uses. This tweak is one step towards the final goal of having a standard default taskbar icon for Windows Explorer, irrespective of the current location of the Explorer instance. Of course, a better solution would be an application to modify Windows Explorer so that its taskbar icon is configurable, but I have yet to find (or make) a solution that would be this flexible.

(Windows Registry) How To Make Administrator Appear in XP - TALlama

Fri, 15 Aug 2008 17:36:46 GMT

By default, the 'Administrator' user in XP won't show if any other users are defined. This is moronic. This one registry value will make that user show up regardless.
