thx, it contains a few new ones for me.

Thanxz

Yea I gotta say thnx also

I am using some of the tweaks and thanks for that. But I have one question.

The tweak

;Right-click any drive to close the tray of the optical drive (Requires CDR.exe in system32)

	[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\draw]
	@="Close CD-&tray"
	[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\draw\command]
	@="cdr.exe close ALL"

Speaks of putting cdr.exe into system32 does anybody know where I can find the cdr.exe that I must use?

Search Google for this KlmSOftware's CDR.EXE 1.2 and you'll get a softpedia link to download it. This works with all Windows versions.

There is one regtweak I am looking for. That is to have have the desktop icons switched from medium icons to classic icons. Any clues? Thanks in advance.

I Feel Weird To Ask.....But How About Another Key To Restore Original Settings!

Thanks Phil, but I am aware of that. I just looking for a regtweak that will elliminate having to do that. I am also looking for a regtweak that will remove the volume icon form the taskbar upon install of vista. Ya know, to save having to right click taskbar and go to properties, then notification area and unchecking the volume box. Any ideas?

This registry tweak will remove the arrow from shortcuts...

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile]

@="Shortcut"

"EditFlags"=dword:00000001

"FriendlyTypeName"="@shell32.dll,-4153"

"IsShortcut"=-

"NeverShowExt"=""

"IsNotShortcut"=""
