Remove navigation pane

[Nick_White]

Is there a registry entry that can be changed to remove the Vista navigation pane?

I did some research on this and apparently there is no way to do this through registry.

One way to do it, which isnt fool proof or perfect, is to use something like autoit and write a script that runs the options and uncheck the navigation pane window. So you basically write the script to do the same thing you would do yourself if you were turning it off.
