Nick2588 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Does anyone else have this problem? I'm getting a weird "ghost" item appearing in Control Panel after an unattended install. It cannot be deleted and it never goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 I haven't seen that before. Perhaps you're copying over a CPL file that's not really a control panel applet.....or a regtweak....Is all you do an Unattended install, or do you customize it as well?

Nick2588 Posted July 2, 2004 Author Share Posted July 2, 2004 Hmm, moving over it shows "Schedule computer tasks to run automatically".I have a registry tweak to remove network scheduled tasks... is this correct?;Speed up Network Browsing by removing Network Scheduled Tasks[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denney Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Are you using nLite? I have the same problem. I think it has to do with removing Task Scheduler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denney Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 @Nick2588: I found out from nuhi, you need to delete this registry key to get rid of that icon:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace]"{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}"=-Or just use the latest nLite and don't delete the nLite.cmd file.

Nick2588 Posted July 2, 2004 Author Share Posted July 2, 2004 I'm not using nLite, but this did solve my problem. However, the registry entry should be:;Remove ghost Control Panel icon[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}]Because it is a folder that we are removing, not just a single value.
