I have been trying to change the Visual Effects setting(my computer -> properties -> advanced -> visual effects) to "Best Performance"(this might not sound right since I am trying to translate korean to english) using the following registry tweak. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects] "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000002 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects] "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000002 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects] "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000002 I have put the above tweak to run through command specified in "cmdline.txt" after reading Nuhi's sticky post. I have gotten the above code from Shoshoni's post on http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/index.php/t24570.html. Well after having that tweak, i was able to see that the visual effects setting was set to "Best Performance" with all the effects settings checkboxes turned off. But the problem is that, even after rebooting, the setting was not actually applied. So I wanted to try out the following code to fix the problem "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000002 <-2 = All Settings Off "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000003 <- Manual Settings "VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000001 <- Let's Windows choose But the problem is that, there was no mention on where to put the code in. Now i ran into this post by "Erven" on http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=86615 Erven has the following code(snipped a bit for readability) HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\ClassicViewState","DefaultValue",0x00010001,1 HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\ControlPanelInMyComputer","DefaultValue",0x00010001,0 ... ... HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\DesktopProcess","DefaultVHKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\WebViewBarricade","DefaultValue",0x00010001,1 Erven metions a file named "NLHIVE.INF" which I could not find anywhere. I used nLite only to apply "Hot Fixes", "Drivers", and to create an "Unattended" file("Winnt.Sif"). I am wondering if I would have to use all the features of NLite to be able to see "NLHive.INF". to be able to have this kind of tweaks(HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\ClassicViewState","DefaultValue",0x00010001,1) to take effect. Any comments, links or search tips would be appreciated. Thank you in advance...
