1. I tried the "Enable Quick Launch" tweak that someone posted (I forget where), and it worked for the local admin account, but if I run that on a new user account it does nothing. Is it supposed to work every time?

2. Same goes with the Taskbar Unlock -- it doesn't seem to work when I run it under my own account:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"TaskbarSizeMove"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"LockTaskbar"=dword:00000000

3. Is there a way to set the default screensaver to "None" by default for all users, instead of the "Windows XP" one?

I know there are more, but I can't think of them right now...

well u mean u log in and merge the .reg file

if that's what u're doing u need to logoff and on in order for it to work.

The taskbar reg edit runs once during the install (through the cmdlines.txt file), along with all the other reg tweaks. I then log on as the local administrator and the taskbar is unlocked.

But if I reboot and log on to the domain with my user account, the taskbar is now locked. Now a big deal, but it would be nice to have one less thing to tinker with.

Now another one has popped up -- sometimes when I run my install, the standard XP theme isn't applied, instead it's a "Modified Theme". Maybe that's a result of some other reg tweak I'm applying?

I'll post my entire tweak.reg file if it would help.

3. Is there a way to set the default <b>screensaver</b> to "None" by default for all users, instead of the "Windows XP" one?

This is an easy one. Import via cmdlines.txt.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"ScreenSaveActive"="0"
"ScreenSaverIsSecure"="0"
"SCRNSAVE.EXE"=""

ScreenSaverIsSecure:

0 unchecks "On resume, display Welcome screen".

1 checks it. (Default)
