show hidden folders show file extensions thru registry

in Windows 7

I am working on a standard Windows 7 image and am trying to setup a default user or machine setup for how Windows 7 handles folder view options. I want show hidden folders to be set to on for all users and the hide extensions for know file types to be unchecked or turned off ffor all users (so extensions show)

I have located them in the registry but they do not seem to be applied to all users.

Below is the registry settings I have set

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]

"Hidden"=dword:00000001

"HideFileExt"=dword:00000000

When I create a new account to test the folder options are still hiding hidden files and not showing extensions.

Any suggestions

thx

Edit the settings into your Default Users profile if you want it to apply to all users.
