I have come across tons and tons of web pages having many tips, tweaks and so on. I also tried to compare registry BEFORE and AFTER to find out what chaged. But there is absolutely no way how to programatically, automatically, with REG file, with BAT file or in any other way chage the look of Windows Explorer. You know, when you make Tools - Folder Options - "Use Windows Classic Folders" and you make it million times at all computers, it is something very annoying, absurd, hard to understand. No REG tweaks deleting [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU] [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags] work neither those crazy [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer] "ShellState"=hex:24,00,00,00,23,88,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ 01,00,00,00,0a,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00 do not work neither [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams] "Settings"=hex:09,00,0 ...... and so on [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Defaults] "{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8... and so on do not work please help ! Is there some Win API function to switch, command line utility, is it maybe possible with WMI - I am not experienced user of API/WMI, but any hint would help me to find another sources on internet maybe I have found some related stuff here http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0...2kui2/print.asp but still have no clue It seems to me that when someone created this "enhancement", he did not use brain. Win XP is full of enforced functions that nobody needs. Thank you for every tip also when you write me "Task pane is very important to us ..because..." but I did not find it any useful at all it slows down and complicates my browsing Filip
