NOTE : You should not edit your registry unless it is absolutely necessary. If there is an error in your registry, your computer may not function properly. Incorrectly editing the registry may severely damage your system. Before making changes to the registry, you should back up any valued data on your computer. Back up the Registry First!!!

Locate and then click the key that contains the value that you want to edit. On the File menu, click Export. In the Save in box, select a location where you want to save the .reg file, in the File name box, type a file name, and then click Save. To Back up the whole registry: Click Start, then click Run. The Run dialog box appears. Type regedit and click OK. The Registry Editor opens. Click the Registry menu and click Export Registry File. Verify the following items in the Export Registry File dialog box: Save in: Desktop File name: Registry Backup Save as type: Registration Files Export range: All Click Save. Exit the Registry Editor. Verify that an icon labeled Registry Backup.reg is on the desktop. CAUTION : Do not double-click the Registry Backup.reg file on the desktop unless you intend to undo the changes you are making to the registry. NOTE : This method for Windows 95/98/Me will not work for Windows NT/2000. Windows NT/2000 has additional security protection that prevents this backup from being restored.

The fix is quick and simple, right click on the menu and select sort by name. Ah isn \'t that better? Brand your copy of Windows XP in the Start Menu Have you used someone \'s new Hewlett Packard with their OEM version of Windows XP? You \'ve seen that HP has their own icon in the Start Menu, underneath Run, that goes to their Help Site. Now, you can have your icon that does anything you want (website, program, etc) and says anything you want. Basically, you are branding Windows XP (Home or Pro), great for if you are a computer builder and sell them, or you just want to make Windows XP your own. It involves Regedit. NOTE : You should NOT install this over a FACTORY BRAND. (UNLESS YOU EXPORT THE FILE FIRST) 1. Start up Notepad and create a new registry file (*.reg) and copy and paste the following into it: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0}] @= YOUR TITLE HERE [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\DefaultIcon] @= YOUR ICON HERE 00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,68,00,70,00,6c,00,69,00, \\ 6e,00,6b,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,00,00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\InProcServer32] @=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,00,6f,00,6f,00,74,00,25, \\ 00,5c,00,73,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,73,00,68,00, \\ 64,00,6f,00,63,00,76,00,77,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00 ThreadingModel=Apartment [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\Instance] CLSID={3f454f0e-42ae-4d7c-8ea3-328250d6e272} [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\Instance \\InitPropertyBag] CLSID={13709620-C279-11CE-A49E-444553540000} method=ShellExecute Command= YOUR TITLE HERE Param1= YOUR FUNCTION HERE [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\shellex] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\shellex \\ContextMenuHandlers] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\shellex \\ContextMenuHandlers \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0}] @= [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\shellex \\MayChangeDefaultMenu] @= [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\CLSID \\{2559a1f6-21d7-11d4-bdaf-00c04f60b9f0} \\ShellFolder] Attributes=dword:00000000 2. Edit where it says YOUR ICON HERE to a path to an icon (ex. c: \\ \\icon.ico), it must be 24x24 pixels and in .ico format. 3. Edit both places where it says YOUR TITLE HERE to what you want it to say in the Start Menu (ex. Elranzer Homepage). 4. Edit where it says YOUR FUNCTION here to what you want it to do when you click it, it can be anything... your website, a local HTML document, a program, a Windows function, whatever your imagination can provide (ex. http://www.elranzer.com ). 5. Save this file as brand.reg, double-click it to enter in your information, and refresh Explorer (log off/on)to see it in the Start Menu!! This works in both Home and Professional. Disabling New Programs Alert To get rid of this alert is really easy: Right click the start bar and click properties. Go to the start menu tab and click customize. Click on the advanced tab. De-select Highlight newly installed programs This is only applicable if you have the new XP start menu not if you are using classic. Copyright © 2004 ~ 2010 Marvs Windows Tips & Tricks.

So the registry tweak is a much better way to disable WPFV. If PhotoEd is installed, it will open picture files after WPFV is disabled. Open unknown files with Notepad Go to [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \\* \\shell] (create it, if it doesn \'t exist) Under shell, create a new key called open, and edit the string (Default) to read Open With Notepad.

Thumbnails (XP) Turn off filenames in thumbnail view Open the folder, or switch to thumbnail view, while holding down the Shift key.

Current user: HKEY_CURRENT_USER \\Software \\Microsoft \\Windows \\CurrentVersion \\Explorer All users: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \\Software \\Microsoft \\Windows \\CurrentVersion \\Explorer Go to either key, select Explorer, then create a DWORD value called ThumbnailSize. Double-click it, select Decimal in the Base section, and enter a value between 32 and 256. Restart Windows Explorer. Disable thumbnail caching (thumbs.db) When you switch to thumbnail view, Windows creates hidden thumbs.db files (thumbnail cache) to speed up access to the thumbnails. This is nice but these files also contain the thumbnails of deleted pictures. You can delete the files, but Windows will recreate them as soon as you go back into the folders. You can, however, tell Windows not to cache thumbnails. Control Panel > Folder Options On the View tab, check Do not cache thumbnails. You will have to delete the thumbs.db files that already exist (Use the Search feature). Restore .exe association Symptoms: Computer will not run any program.

Missing or Corrupt Ntfs.sys Error Message When You Restart Windows XP After You Convert Your Hard Disk to the NTFS File System RESOLUTION: To resolve this problem, you must replace the missing or corrupted Ntfs.sys file. To do so, follow these steps: Start your computer with the Windows XP CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive. You are prompted with the following option: To repair a Windows XP installation using Recovery Console, press R When you are prompted with this option, press R to select it. At the command prompt, type the following commands (press ENTER after each command): cd  \\windows \\system32 \\drivers ren ntfs.sys ntfs.old Note: This step renames the corrupted Ntfs.sys file to Ntfs.old. If the Ntfs.sys file is not found, then the file was missing. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: copy cd: \\i386 \\ntfs.sys drive: \\windows \\system32 \\drivers Where cd is the drive letter for the CD-ROM drive that contains the Windows XP CD, and drive is the drive that you installed Windows XP to. Remove the Windows XP CD from your CD-ROM drive, type quit, and then press ENTER to quit the Recovery Console. Restart Windows XP Reinstall Windows XP without re-activating When you activate Windows XP, Microsoft stores the data in the Windows Product Activation database files wpa.dbl and Wpa.bak in the folder %systemroot% \\system32. If you change the motherboard or make significant hardware changes, XP will require you to reactive. But if you plan to reinstall XP on the same hardware, you can back up the activation status and then restore it after you reinstall and avoid the activation process. You can backup the Windows Product Activation database files to diskette. They are very small. After you reinstall XP, to restore the Windows Product Activation database files: Start XP to Minimal Safe mode Change directory to the  \\%systemroot% \\system32 folder Rename the newly created wpa.dbl to wpa.nonactivated and wpa.bak, if it exists, to wpabak.nonactivated. Copy your backed up wpa.dbl and wpb.bak files to the system32 folder Reboot This should work if you want to avoid activating XP after a reinstall or restore on the same or very similar hardware. It will not work if the hardware is significantly different from that in place when the Windows Product Activation database files were created. This is not a hack to avoid activating installations. Windows XP - Error: The Windows Installer Service Could not be Accessed This document provides a solution to the error message: Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. When attempting to install software on Windows XP the end-user receives a message that reads: The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in a safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance. To resolve the problem: Click on Start. Select Run. In the Open: field, type: command. Click OK. An MS-DOS Prompt window will come up on the screen with a blinking cursor at the command line. In this window you will need to do the following: Type msiexec /unregister and press Enter. Type msiexec /regserver and press Enter. Reinstall System Restore System Restore enables administrators to restore their computers to a previous state without losing personal data file (e.g. Word documents, graphic files, e-mail). System Restore actively monitors system file changes and some application file changes to record or store previous versions before the changes occurred. Users never have to think about taking system snapshots as System Restore automatically creates easily identifiable restore points, which the users can use to revert to a previous time. Restore points are created at the time of significant system events (such as application or driver install) and periodically (each day). Additionally, users can create and name their own restore points at any time. Caution: The following procedure will remove all the existing System Restore points, and resets the System Restore drive monitoring options to defaults (monitors all drives by default.) Click Start, Run and type %Windir% \\INF. Locate the SR.INF file. The file may be shown as SR, if you have configured Windows Explorer to hide known file extensions. To see the file extensions for all file types, then try this: On the Tools menu in My Computer, click Folder Options. Click the View tab. Clear the Hide extensions for known file types check box. Right-click the SR.INF file, and then click Install. Windows will now attempt to reinstall System Restore, and may prompt you for the Windows installation source path. Point to %Windir% \\ServicePackFiles folder, or insert your slipstreamed Windows XP (matching the Service Pack level of your system.) System Restore core files will be reinstalled.

Fix IE 6 Slowdowns and Hangs If Internet Explorer (IE) 6 is slowing to a crawl and/or hanging and starts to use 100 percent of CPU time it may well be a corruption of the Temporary Internet Files folder. In particular, trying to delete Temporary Internet files via Tools, Internet Options or other privacy software seems to trigger this behavior. Also, attempts to view files in the Temporary Internet Files folder may show the folder as already empty when it is not. This behavior occurs because the Temporary Internet files database is corrupt. The Temporary Internet files aren \'t really files but entries in %systemdrive% \\Documents and Settings \\ username% \\Local Settings \\Temporary Internet Files \\Content.IE5 \\index.dat. Deleting that file solves the problem. This same problem has occurred for NT users and the fix works for XP. Open a command prompt window on the desktop (Start/Run/command). Exit IE and Windows Explorer (iexplore.exe and explorer.exe, respectively, in Task Manager, i.e. - Ctrl-Alt Del/Task Manager/Processes/End Process for each). Use the following command exactly from your command prompt window to delete the corrupt file: C: \\>del %systemdrive% \\Documents and Settings \\%username% \\Local Settings \\Temporary Internet Files \\Content.IE5 \\index.dat Restart Windows Explorer with Task Manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del/Task Manager/Applications/New Task/Browse/C: \\Windows \\explorer.exe[or your path]) or Shutdown/Restart the computer from Task Manager. IE should now work properly. Sharing bookmarks and favorites Favorites, known as bookmarks in Netscape Navigator, are a convenient way to organize and link to Web pages that you visit frequently. Internet Explorer automatically imports all your Netscape bookmarks. On the Favorites menu, click the Imported Bookmarks folder to view them. If you use Internet Explorer on several computers, you can easily share favorite items among computers by importing them. Also, if you use both Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator, you can keep your favorites and bookmarks updated with each other by importing them between programs. To import bookmarks or favorites, on the File menu, click Import and Export. To export favorites to bookmarks or favorites on the same or another computer, on the File menu, click Import and Export. Notes: Exported favorites are saved as regular HTML files, so either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator can import them. You can export a selected folder in your Favorites list, or all of your favorites. The exported favorites file is fairly small, so if you want to share the favorite items with other people, you can copy it to a floppy disk or folder on a network, or attach it to an e-mail message. How to Clear the ARP Cache The Microsoft Windows ARP cache will occasionally become corrupt and need to be cleared. The first symptom you are likely to notice is that connections to web pages will time out and fail. If you troubleshoot further, you will notice that you can `ping` your IP address and also 127.0.0.1, but not other IP addresses. If you try to use Microsoft Windows to repair the network connection, you will receive an error message that says: Windows could not finish repairing the problem because the following operation could not be completed: Clearing the ARP cache For assistance, contact the person who manages your network. To fix this error, you will need to clear the ARP cache. This is done with the `netsh` command: C: \\>netsh interface ip delete arpcache Ok.

Turn off Indexing to speed up XP Windows XP keeps a record of all files on the hard disk so when you do a search on the hard drive it is faster. There is a downside to this and because the computer has to index all files, it will slow down normal file commands like open, close, etc. If you do not do a whole lot of searches on your hard drive then I suggest turning this feature off: Control Panel Administrative Tools Services Disable Indexing Services Delete Prefetch files in XP Automatically Here \'s an easy way to delete your Prefetch: Go into My Computer and go into your hard drive. Right-click anywhere that a file is not and select the  \'New \' submenu and click  \'Text Document \' Name it deleteprefetch Double-click on the text file you just created. Type del C: \\Windows \\Prefetch \\*.* /Q (without the quotes). Go to File > Save As... and choose All Files from the Save as Type box and save it as deleteprefetch.bat You just created a batch file that will automatically delete all the files in your Prefetch folder by double clicking on it.

Tips on cleaning up your computer: Remove Adware & Spyware Spyware is software that sends information from the user \'s computer without their knowledge whenever the computer connects to the Internet. Usually the information sent is benign in nature, mostly concerned with general marketing information (ie., spending habits) rather than specific information like credit card numbers, although some programs are capable of retrieving specific information as well. The problem with Spyware lies in the fact that this information is transmitted without informed consent. Additionally, Spyware programs are sometimes poorly written, containing bugs and causing the computer to malfunction. Spyware does not respect your privacy. If you are bothered with this, then removing adware from your computer might be a consideration. Click HERE to be taken to the Link.

How to Repartition and Format a Slave Hard Disk How to Repartition a Slave Hard Disk If you want to add a second hard disk (slave drive) to your computer, you need to make sure that the jumpers on both the master (original) and slave (new drive) are set according to the manufacturer \'s instructions first so that your computer can detect the hard disks. Verify that your hardware is installed correctly, and then follow these steps: Click Start, point to Run, and then type command (Note that the cmd command only works on Windows 2000-based computers). At a command prompt, type fdisk, and then press ENTER. The following menu is displayed: 1. Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive 2. Set active partition 3.

Press 1 to select the Create DOS partition or Logical DOS Drive menu option, press ENTER, press 2 to select the Create Extended DOS Partition menu option, and then press ENTER. When you make your slave drive an extended MS-DOS partition, your drive letters does not change. For example, if the first drive contains partition C and partition D, your slave drive becomes D unless you set the slave drive as an extended partition. If you skip this step and just create another primary MS-DOS partition for the slave drive, the new drive becomes drive D and what used to be drive D, changes to drive E.You can partition the slave drive to make other logical drives just as you did with the original master drive. If your computer cannot detect the new drive, you may need to add the following line to your Config.sys file, where drive is a letter that is greater than the last drive letter on the computer (including the CD-ROM drive): lastdrive=drive. After you finish using the Fdisk tool, format the new partitions so that you can use them. After you press ESC to quit the Fdisk tool, restart your computer to start Windows.

When the conversion procedure is finished, click Finish. NOTE: Do not use the /s switch that you used when you set up drive C. All you need to do is to format the drive or drives so that you can use them (for example, if you created two new drive letters, you need to format both drives). How to Partition and Format Your Hard Disk by Using Windows XP Setup IMPORTANT: If you follow these steps on a hard disk that is not empty, all of the data on that hard disk is permanently deleted. Insert the Windows XP CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive, or insert the first Windows XP Setup boot disk into the floppy disk drive if you are starting from Setup boot disks, and then restart the computer. NOTE: To start your computer from the Windows XP CD-ROM (or from the Setup boot disk), your computer must be configured to start from the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive (or the floppy disk drive). In some cases, you may have to modify your computer \'s BIOS settings to do this. For information about how to configure your computer to start from the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive (or the floppy disk drive), see the documentation that is included with your computer, or contact the computer manufacturer. If you are starting the computer from the Windows XP CD-ROM, select any options that are required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are prompted to do so. Note: If your hard disk controller requires a third-party original equipment manufacturer (OEM) driver, press F6 to specify the driver.

If you press D to delete an existing partition, you must then press L (or press ENTER, and then press L if it is the System partition) to confirm that you want to delete the partition. Repeat this process for each of the existing partitions that you want to use for the new partition. When all the partitions are deleted, you can then select the resulting unpartitioned space and then press C to create the new partition. Note: If you want to create a partition where one or more partitions already exist, you must first delete the existing partition or partitions and then create the new partition. Type the size (in megabytes, or MB) that you want to use for the new partition, and then press ENTER, or just press ENTER to create the partition using the maximum size. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 to create additional partitions if you want to. If you want to install Windows XP, use the arrow keys to select the partition you want to install Windows XP on, and then press ENTER. If you do not want to format the partition and install Windows XP, press F3 two times to quit Setup, and then do not continue with the following steps. In this case, you must use another utility to format the partition. Select the format option that you want to use for the partition, and then press ENTER. The options are: Format the partition by using the NTFS file system (Quick) Format the partition by using the FAT file system (Quick) Format the partition by using the NTFS file system Format the partition by using the FAT file system Leave the current file system intact (no changes) The option to leave the current file system intact is not available if the selected partition is a new partition. The FAT file system options is not available if the selected partition is more than 32 gigabytes(GB). If the partition is larger than 2 GB, Setup uses the FAT32 file system (you must press ENTER to confirm). If the partition is smaller than 2 GB, Setup uses the FAT16 file system. NOTE: If you deleted and created a new System partition but you are installing Windows XP on another partition, you will be prompted to select a file system for both the System and Boot partitions at this point. After Setup formats the partition, follow the on-screen instructions to continue Setup. After Setup is complete, you can use the Disk Management tools in Windows XP to create or format additional partitions. Copyright © 2004 ~ 2010 Marvs Windows Tips & Tricks. All rights reserved.
