If you use the 'My Computer opens Explorer' Tweak you may have noticed that it opens 'c:' instead of 'my documents'.

To change this remove the '/e'

EG:

ORIGINAL

;My Computer opens Explorer

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Explorer\command]

@="explorer /e"

ALTERED VERSION

;My Computer opens Explorer

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Explorer\command]

@="explorer"

Just thought you may want to add it to your collection, as an option.

It really did take me ages to figure this out!

April 11, 2005

I'll test your theory right now... have the missing files and directories issue. back in 5 minutes.

edit: Im back.... worked! Now I can see all files where before I couldnt. Thanks.

I am making an XPDVD with the WPI Menu and wanted to ad Americas Army to the colletion.

While I am sure that the game wont have a silent switch has anyone made an autoIT script for it? thought I'd ask before I make one.

November 20, 2004

Is there a list of 'categories' Or is it just add whatever you want?

November 19, 2004

dam.... oh well. goo work on the prog atm. Im having fun learning it.

November 19, 2004

yep you misunderstood. The program uses 'check boxes' that let you select all options. What im talking about is the selection buttons that only let you select one (of a group) of buttons. Like when in reply you see two buttons to the left of the screen 'Guided Mode' or 'Normal Mode' This would stop you from selecting two office suites or anti viruses or firewalls...

November 19, 2004

Is there a setting to use selection buttons in oder to select between alternate software?

Or maybe drop down menus even? Select Office Suite, Select Graphics Prog, Select AntiVirus....

I mean, you can select between: Office2003 and OpenOffice, that kind of thing.

I also wish to have the utilities grouped in sections.... Office, Graphics, Backup...etc

November 18, 2004

Im trying to find the Registry tweak to remove a-squared from the context menu as it cant be stopped during silent install. I have been going throught the registry with no luck.

thanks.

November 18, 2004

nope. does not work, setup still gets stuck at the same point

Thats funny... since it worked for me.

November 18, 2004

how about this?

REG ADD %KEY%\007 /VE /D "Mozilla Thunderbird 0.9" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\007 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\Install\thunderbird\thunderbirdsetup.exe -ms -ispf" /f

November 18, 2004

thankyou very much!! Now I can spend ages making another Disc...

November 18, 2004

I was wondering if there is a program or script that can run as a program selection menu so when it comes time to install the software it lets you select what you want or dont want... I understand that it sort of defeats the purpose of an "unattended" Disc but It is an interesting idea for a larger Disc (DVD) with multiple programs.

I was wondering if when a driver is intergrated is it installed on pc's that dont need it? or is it like other drivers packed within XP that only install when needed.

I just don't want to make two discs.... one for the laptop and one for the main pc.

November 16, 2004

yes as a serial number... I dont know how to find it in the REG.

edit: would this be it?
