Is that Create Playlist with Winamp? Haven't tried that myself yet but think I will mess with it. Anyone else come up with something post. I had a little difficulty with 1 thing and finally figured it out. I think it will do anything just getting it right. Like using the Append directory or File.

No reply to this. Several have asked for similar thing's. Thought there would be some interest. oh well

Ok bad news first, you aren't able to do that by reg except on same domain it was connected to. MS Quote These policy settings are location-aware. They apply only when a computer is connected to the same DNS domain network it was connected to when the policy setting was refreshed on that computer. If a computer is connected to a DNS domain network other than the one it was connected to when the policy setting was refreshed, the policy setting does not apply. Only other method is to use above to enable or disable then set rerstriction on reg key by subinacl.exe to ADMIN only, that way it cannot be changed. I do see that with SP2 there will more options like your looking for but thats untested as of yet.

Ooops just re-read it and I see you want to disable getting there. K I have it and will look it up.

REGEDIT4 ;Disables the are you sure [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\HomeNetworking\PersonalFirewall] "ShowDisableFirewallWarning"=dword:00000001 ;Turns off Internet Connection Firewall [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess] "Start"=dword:00000003 Thats a service and may need reboot to get effect. Or simply at a command prompt, NET STOP SharedAccess which returns this if off; The Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) / Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service is not started. I didn't PM ya cause I been gone offline a few days and seen this here first. NOTE: Its a little different with SP2, still experimenting on that myself.

Darn thought we'd get a brownie button BTW Aaron Is there a list shows these?

This will remove Help and Support in Classic and New Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;Applies to User [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] "NoSMHelp"=dword:00000001 For System Wide Use [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]

I have a reg Tweak will add what you want below the Run in new. Couldn't you just click the Customize and use the Add and add a shortcut to your vb script? Then check reg and see where its writing and maybe customize it further. Then problem being removing the Help and Support, I think theres a way but haven't messed with Old Start in a while. This is Reg key to kill it in New Start Menu [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "Start_ShowHelp"=dword:00000000 I found out its a Restriction will remove it, I'm looking for it. I have it here.

Check this out As mentioned some of it is wrong but it give's some examples for all. Most the stuff I have learned is try a command and if its not right, GOOGLE Advanced Search to the rescue. I have that old MS_Dos 6.2 book still laying around and it was a little help back in 3.1 day's. They (MS) killed Dos nearly in ME and I was totally surprised when XP brought it back with a slew of new command's. Try NET at the prompt but be careful. I hear its going to be extended further in Longhorn or next major Window's. Wish I had time to get the hang of C++ myself or even that new .NET, I have the free ICsharp and been messing with it. Have Fun and if you have ? just ask them. The only stupid question is one not asked cause there is no answer. Some don't think that way but I do. By all mean's do try the Search on the forum's first though, even though for me it rarely return's anything except error's mostly. Don't know what's up with that.

I think this is what you're asking. http://www.ronshardwebapps.com/tips/septtu...loperators2.asp First Hit in Google But it crashes on me here If str1stnumber strOperator str2ndnumber Then Expected 'Then' I think you need somethying in there or I just don't see what you're trying to do.

I just open the registry and look at the key myself. Copy and paste to my reg file with the ;

MCT Look in http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=21742 I think if I read it right that thing will do it. You just might add the Append file option and add %1 at end of command line. I just got this thing a week ago and have been experimenting.

Right click your Start, choose properties, make sure its on Start Menu then click Customize. Choose Advanced up top in Tab's. Its in there or do you want the registry tweak? Might be listed in Windows Tips and Tweaks Forum. Think I seen it there.

CMenuExtender << Its FREE!!! CMenuExtender is a shell extension that lets the user add items to the Explorer right click contextmenu with Icons. Using any registry-editor or the supplied GUI, the user can add submenus and items such as shortcuts to programs, documents, folders, webpages and scripts. CMExt also has some predefined commands for copying, moving and retrieving information on files and directories. This thing even does the Copy To, Move To, Dos Prompt, URL, Open Doc's, Displays Path and allows Copy and quite a few other things. Works on nearly all files or Folders. HOSTS has no extension so that didn't work is all I found. You can customize it completely and add what you want. Pick an icon from any dll or exe. I've done deleted all mine from registry as this is much nicer. The icons aren't real nice but they ok. Most ico are 16 and this uses 13 so minor thing. BTW did i say source code included CPP or Pascal I've done added it to my Unattened CD so if you need help with that let me know. Its not a silent installer. Some Examples>>> Only 1 problem I have found with it is on uninstall even though it is in Add/Remove it don't delete the reg keys. So I whipped this up. In a cmd file <as you can see I'm using %SystemDrive%\cMenuExtender for folder start /wait %SystemDrive%\cMenuExtender\cmexted.exe -u regsvr32 /u %SystemDrive%\cMenuExtender\cmext.dll regedit /s %SystemDrive%\cMenuExtender\Uninstall.reg EXIT Uninstall.reg REGEDIT4 [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ABC70703-32AF-11d4-90C4-D483A70F4825}] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ABC70703-32AF-11d4-90C4-D483A70F4825}] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved] "{ABC70703-32AF-11d4-90C4-D483A70F4825}"=- [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Revenger inc.] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\CMenuExtender] [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\CMenuExtender] I did a search and didn't see this anywhere so sorry if someone done it.

WwTIPPYwW Those are 2 completely different RegHive's. Pop open Regedit and look The HKEY_CURRENT_USER is you as you are logged on and the HKEY_USERS\YOUR PID is you also. Normally you don't need to save the HKEY_USERS entries. I have seen only a couple that apply to you and with a little pratice its easy to pick out. If it repeats whats in the HKCU then it is not needed to save. EDIT: BTW If it writes to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT its applying to default User and you may need that.

paste the vbs file and i'll look at it. lol i done all that above to my sys, but first restore point and exported the reg as second.

Its in Shell32.dll SEARCH_FILES_FOLDER = "For &Files or Folders..." SEARCH_FILES_FOLDER_HELP = "Search for files or folders" FIND_COMPUTER = "For &Computers" FIND_COMPUTER_HELP = "Search for computers on the network" also this reg key contains some of it HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FindExtensions I was able to get it to have only the For Files and Folders... by deleting several other key's under that, but it was still a sub menu. Haven't hacked shell32. I'd rather have the subs but in new Start myself

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root right click on it and you'll see Permissions... click it and you will see System has Full Everyone has Read Administrator's have Full after the subinacl thing. It won't really matter to change it back because your setting it for Admin's also to Full, it doesn't remove System and everything is fine.

Since I'm constantly messing with files in Sp's this comes in handy Expands or Makecab in current directory.

Found this When registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet \Enum\Root\ were created, permissions were set so that only System, an account used by the operating system, could delete or change them. So the solution may be to get and use the Subinacl.exe to change permissions on that key then add the reg. Add the subinacl.exe to $OEM$\$$\System32 folder so its copied to System32 during setup then it can be used at any time. Subinacl.msi - Extract and save the subinacl.exe file Call this .cmd file and it grants Administrators permissions to Root subin.cmd subinacl.exe /keyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root /grant=Administrators EXIT Thats 2 lines the cmd then the EXIT on a separate line Then call your reg file Works for me that way.

When you use memtest just run the thing it creates a floppy, reboot with floppy inserted, Bios must be set to boot floppy.
