ophiel Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\UserPreferencesMaskanyone have a *complete* guide to that registry key? i haven't had any luck finding detailed information
r3incarnat0r Posted September 16, 2006 Posted September 16, 2006 (edited) Here are my current UserPreferencesMask findings (but I don't say the list is complete B) ):Unofficial UserPreferencesMask reference.If anyone find out more info, please share. ________________________________________Edit: Just a note - I believe the list is presently almost complete, maybe there could be new bits used in the Windows Vista, but I haven't tested it yet...Edit2: I removed the codebox and the old txt file, to download new one, just check out the post below.

r3incarnat0r Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 To those who are interested I updated my unofficial UserPreferencesMask reference. B) Changes:- added 0x00004000 (show pointer location)- added 0x00008000 (ClickLock)- added 0x00010000 (hide pointer while typing)- fixed 0x00000020 (keyboard cues) wrong value info- more detailed descriptionsDownload (attached txt file):UserPreferencesMask_061029.txt
frizz Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 (edited) Here is the official info from Microsoft for Windows 2000, XP shouldn't be too far off. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechn...8.mspx?mfr=trueJust use Calc to convert between hex and binary and back again.

eye_see Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Hi there,Can anyone tell me if it is possible to change the menu like this:(grey on the left, and white background, blue highlighting)
r3incarnat0r Posted December 9, 2006 Posted December 9, 2006 (edited) Regarding UserPreferencesMask, in the picture there are Flat menus and Shadow under menus tweaks enabled. The rest (i.e. graphics) would depend on an applied Visual style. (I suppose that the screenshot is taken from an application like OfficeXP.); a file with INF extension:[Version]Signature="$Windows NT$"[DefaultInstall]BitReg=Tweak[Tweak]HKCU,"Control Panel\Desktop","UserPreferencesMask",1,0x02,2HKCU,"Control Panel\Desktop","UserPreferencesMask",1,0x04,2 Edited December 9, 2006 by r3incarnat0r
eye_see Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Thanks for the answer.Does anybody know a Windows Classic Theme with menus in Office XP style?
XibaD Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 (edited) I'm very interested too. Anyone knows? Edited December 12, 2006 by XibaD
jazzdelightsme Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 BTW, you should use the API to set this instead of hacking the registry directly. See http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/.../09/390706.aspx (The API is SystemParametersInfo). That way, you can get the changes you want without needing to logoff/logon.
zookeeper Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 1) Save the text to VisualTweaks.INF (Please note that it has the .INF extension and not the .REG extension). I use a .INF file because it allows for bit-wise operations and a .REG does not allow bit-wise operations.2) Edit the VisualTweaks.ING and at the end of the file you will find lines that contain stringname=value. You only need to modify each value to the desired setting.3) Run the following command to apply the VisualTweaks.INF:[Version]Signature=$CHICAGO$; [DefaultInstall] section; AddReg directive indicates the names of sections that contain settings you want to add to the registry.; DelReg directive indicates the names of sections that contain settings to delete.; BitReg directive indicates the names of sections that contain bits you want to set and clear.; CopyFiles;; [add-registry-sections] must be uniquely named and can contain multiple entries; rootkey, [subkey], [value], [flags], [data]; rootkey = Rootkey containing the key or value. HKCR (Classes Root), HKCU (Current User), HKLM (Local Machine), HKU (All Users); subkey = Subkey to create or the subkey in which to add or change a value. This is optional.; value = Name of the value to create or modify if it exists. This value is optional.

Combine this flag with others by ORing.; data = The data to write to value. Use quotes around a string.;; [del-registry-sections] must be uniquely named and can contain multiple entries.; rootkey, [subkey], [value], [flags], [data]; rootkey = Rootkey containing the key or value.

The left-most byte is 0. The next is 1, 2, 3...; NOTE: Windows XP stores REG_DWORD values in reverse byte order when specifying which byte on which to apply mask.

dbeorn Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Is it supposed to say "2) Edit the VisualTweaks.ING " with an .ING or is that a typo, I assume?
GrofLuigi Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Is it supposed to say "2) Edit the VisualTweaks.ING " with an .ING or is that a typo, I assume?It's a typo. It should be INF.GL
deathcon1 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 It's with inf extension, I opened the registry editor and I looked for keys, but nothing I found. No add any key.
