lol, it's not that there's nothing. It's just that it hasn't been figured out yet. :] And I'm looking for the tweak for Windows 8 if I wasn't specific. For XP though, it should be a bit easier. I don't know about making list view default but this registry setting makes details view default (in XP). List view should be somewhere in that vicinity: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams] "Settings"=hex:09,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,77,7e,13,73,35,cf,11,ae,\ 69,08,00,2b,2e,12,62,04,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,43,00,00,00

I'm looking for a tweak to set the default view for folders. Right now the default view for all folders is Name->Date Modified->Type->Size I'm looking for a tweak to change all folders to Name->Size->Type->Date Modified Is such a registry tweak possible?

This works for me in Windows XP but it should be the same for 7. Just put the name of the .exe file you don't want showing up in the Start Menu. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;I don't want these in my Start Menu! [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\Notepad.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\WinRAR.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\cmd.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\Wupdmgr.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\migwiz.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\regedit.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\msmsgs.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\wmplayer.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\calc.exe] "NoStartPage"=""

Thanks for the response, guys. Something like this is what I was looking for, but there are certain applications that I run which are not in the Program Files directory, and this hack doesn't seem to work for those. And I think the value is NoStartPage = " ". But a little more research led me to exactly what I wanted. Here it is...... Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;I don't want these showing in my Start Menu! [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\Notepad.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\WinRAR.exe] "NoStartPage"="" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\cmd.exe] "NoStartPage"="" All I have to do is add the .exe file I don't want showing up and it doesn't. By the way, nice script, gunsmokingman.

Say you wanted to prevent certain programs (like Winrar, Notepad, Command Prompt) from showing up in your Start Menu, is there a registry hack to do this?

Or you can try the one in Windows XP.

The tweak is: (The filename should be in 8.3 format.)

Thanks, RaveRod. I'll wait for the official release of Service Pack 2 to try it out.

The masters.mst file has the spyware definitions. Much like Adaware's reflist.ref.

@ jp2002: I hope I'm assuming incorrectly here, but if that command is actually a line in cmdlines.txt then there's your problem. Putting that command in a batch file and have cmdlines.txt call the batch file should work.

@ thread: Hm? Why is pskill better than taskill? Please explain.

What I do is install the program, set it up the way I want and then make an SFX file with WinRAR. And also export this key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Webroot\SpySweeper]If you don't have WinRAR you can just copy over the installation directory.

Not sure about this "AutoAdminLogon"="1000" Should be "AutoAdminLogon"="1"

As long as cmdlines.txt is in the right place it will run. It's the commands you specify (or do not specify) that could be the problem. I don't see the users.cmd in your cmdlines.txt so that won't execute. As for the setup.inf, [Version] is missing and a [string] value needs to be set for %RunOnce%. Not sure what "DefaultInstall 0" does but maybe you'll want to try "DefaultInstall 128".

I saw this in a magazine the other day about a guy recalling the first conversation he had with his father about "manhood". His father said to him ........ "Mike, there comes a time in every man's life when he begins to have urges directed toward the fairer sex. Sometimes a man will have to say things he doesn't mean and do things he doesn't like to help satisfy these urges. But trust me, son, it's worth it."

Did a search for avg6 and found: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=10705

Or maybe try .......

Not your .sif file. Cmdlines.txt.

Exactly. Virtual machines use virtual devices. Do the installation on an actual PC to see if the drivers work.

Jazz, my friend, these wallpaper questions have been answered many different ways and many different times. See for yourself by doing a search for wallpaper and set "Search posts from....." to Any date and you'll see what I mean. In a .theme file the "\" doesn't matter after the variable. It works with or without it. Here is one of many threads: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...wallpaper+& And as long as this line is in your .theme file, Bliss.bmp will always be used no matter what wallpaper you specify. Wallpaper.MUI=@themeui.dll,-2036So remove it or comment it out with a semi-colon (";").

Give it a go. I don't see why it shouldn't work. Or maybe try this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DefaultUserName"="" "DefaultPassword"="" "AutoAdminLogon"="0" Have your cleanup command file call it.

@ kal: If you insist on doing it via svcpack use reg add or net user and put the .cmd file in svcpack.inf.

What Alanoll is saying is export this key after setting Internet Explorer and Explorer the way you like: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar]Should be about 19kb. And if it's small icons in explorer you want, the tweak is in the Registry Tweaks thread. It's a doozy of a thread, I know, so this is it: set icon=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorerreg add %icon%\SmallIcons /v SmallIcons /d yes /fSave as .cmd or .bat

AaronXP...... When can we use the /integrate switch for the type two hotfixes? I was thinking of using it and pointing to the I386 directory, but that's how it's used is it?
