mhh, maybe try replacing "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" with "HKEY_CURRENT_USER". I'm correct, HKEY_CURRENT_USER has a higher priority than HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. So if the key exists in HKCU, the HKLM doesn't matter... greets, strowi

hi, 1) i believe this is the one you are looking for: ; Change the Default Wallpaper to the one you want [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Desktop\General] "BackupWallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\custom.bmp" "Wallpaper"="c:\\windows\\web\\wallpaper\\custom.bmp" 2) huh? what theme? what silver? 3) ;Classic start menu [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] "ClassicViewState"=dword:00000001

just a little addon to the previous post: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AlwaysUnloadDLL] @="1" Because of that little suc*er i almost threw my computer out of the window ~2 years ago when i switched from nvidia to ati. I can't remember if it is already documented, but with that tweak on XP and an ati-card it will totally fsck every file on the disk.

hi, sorry for the delay, i had to study between testing;) Looks like everything was fine, except that single "ListviewAlphaSelect" wouldn't get imported. All the other registry tweaks get imported, except this one: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "ListviewAlphaSelect"=dword:00000001 That bugger doesn't seem to work at cmdlines.txt. But as i found out, it should work adding that key to HKLM, while removing it from HKCU. thx for your help! greets, strowi

thx, this is very helpful. You have a small error in "internet.explorer.reg": the first line is commented out. greets, strowi

thx for the tips. I added "regedit settings.reg" to the cmdlines.txt. On a new test it asked me if i want to import those settings, so i did. But they do not work on the standard user... As far as i know, the HKCU doesn't exist at that stage, but i read, that at T-12 the settings get applied to EVERY User... PS: I found the thread where i got the files: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=85466 (it was your pack gugutz )

hi, no i didn't. I just didn't want to post the whole reg-file (>40 lines), and forgot to readd the header, sorry. All of the reg-files import fine when i run them. Only the HKCU-Settings do not work for the standard-user...

hi, i have a mostly working unattended winxp-cd. But there is still a problem i can't seem to resolve... I downloaded the registry_tweaks-pack from the forums, modded it, and run it from cmdlines.txt: [Commands] "cmdlines_tweaks.cmd" "rundll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection nLite.inf,nLiteReg" "RunWPI.cmd" here is part of the cmdlines_tweaks.cmd: regedit.exe /s "settings.reg" .. And settings.reg: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "EnableBalloonTips"=dword:00000000 "FolderContentsInfoTip"=dword:00000000 "ShowInfoTip"=dword:00000000 "StartButtonBalloonTip"=dword:00000000 "NoSMBalloonTip"=dword:00000000 "ListviewAlphaSelect"=dword:00000001 But it doesn't work, and i don't know why... I read, applying this at cmdlines.txt should make it default for ALL users? Any ideas?
