[Close a porgram window]

He already said he wanted to close a folder... The problem is that you can't use taskkill here, because explorer windows are part of explorer.exe (correct me if I'm wrong, I couldn't get it to work, but that could just be me ), so killing that would kill your whole shell.

[Icon on the desktop]

Really, where did you get that second tweak Astalavista InfoTip has nothing to do with the position of the icon, and I afaik there's no difference between HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes and HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, so this should be enough:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}]
"SortOrderIndex"=dword:00000054

Can't we have a limitation that people that have less than 50 posts can't use caps, big letters and colors?

seamanyin: please don't use big letters and colors unnecessarily. As for an example, you can find plenty of examples with the search function of this board. Or just read ref.chm.

[i can't seem to get his command to work.....]

Well, you would know if you just read that website...

In order to find the correct CD drive letter, we need to include some IF EXIST statements in the RunOnceEx.cmd file. Open RunOnceEx.cmd in Notepad, and include the following after @echo off:

IF EXIST D:\CD.txt set CDROM=D:

IF EXIST E:\CD.txt set CDROM=E:

IF EXIST F:\CD.txt set CDROM=F:

IF EXIST G:\CD.txt set CDROM=G:

IF EXIST H:\CD.txt set CDROM=H:

IF EXIST I:\CD.txt set CDROM=I:

IF EXIST J:\CD.txt set CDROM=J:

Create a blank txt file called CD.txt and place this in C:\XPCD. This allows the IF EXIST command to scan all the drive letters specified, then when it finds CD.txt it will set an environment variable of %CDROM% pointing to the correct drive letter.

[install *.inf problem]

You are using more then one set of quotation marks and it is comfusing the rundll command.  Try this

REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE /D "Install of Maxthon" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE 1 "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 /"%ProgramFiles%\Maxthon\maxthon.inf/"" /f

Try it the other way around :

REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE /D "Install of Maxthon" /F
REG ADD %KEY%\060 /VE 1 "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 \"%ProgramFiles%\Maxthon\maxthon.inf\"" /F

[New-File Menu, predefined file contents]

Well, I did read it, but I just wanted to know if there was another way to do it (without using binary). I guess there isn't

[New-File Menu, predefined file contents]

The Data-value can be a REG_SZ, so you don't have to work with hex values. I tried to make it a REG_MULTI_SZ (to have multiple lines), but it just put all the lines on one line I think you're better off with a predefined file if you want to have multiple lines.

Edit1: btw, you don't need the NullFile-value in there. It will show up in the New-list anyway if you just put in the Data- or FileName-value.

Edit2: I'd still go for the predefined file. If you use the Data-value, it will add a character (not sure what character, it shows up as a space in Notepad) to the end of your string.

[removing language settings.]

You can use nLite to remove languages.

I just tried it, but the values for Type and Size are the other way around here. So:

I'm not sure what language you wrote that example in, but if it's supposed to be a batch file, then it's wrong

IF "%UserName%" == "B" GOTO NameB
IF "%UserName%" == "C" GOTO NameC
IF "%UserName%" == "D" GOTO End

Yes, it's hardware dependant. I asked the same thing in this topic, and idle.newbie recommended me NirCmd. It works perfect

[what am i doing wrong]

Put the last \ back one character. Like this:

That should work.

[Add Recycle Bin shortcut to quick launch]

You can create a directory and call it "Recycle Bin.{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}" (you can call it whatever you like, just make sure it has the {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} extension). In will only show the description in your Quick Launch, not the name.
