Hey all

Only me again! Nearly finished getting windows to look how i want it to but heres a list of things i can't seem to find out how to do. Hope someone can help me out here!

FOLDER OPTIONS

1 untick "remember each folders view settings"

SOUND OPTIONS

2 mute sound

3 no sounds theme set

WINDOWS COMPONENTS

4 Remove remote assistance. (Tho i just found a possibility for it, with an entry in pchealth section of winnt.sif right?)

5 get rid of "internet gateway device discovery and control client" (I'm testing on virtual pc, could this be why this is only network component installed in networking services?)

VIEW MENU

6 get rid of folder options

START MENU/TASKBAR OPTIONS

7 untick open submenus when i pause on them with my mouse

8 untick highlight newly installed programs

9 dont display control panel

10 dont display my computer

for no 10 i used this code

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NonEnum]
"{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001

but on the start menu/taskbar options it still says to display the my computer. i think its the same with control panel too. is this just a thing windows forgets to change in settings when i used above code or is there a better one to use?

I think thats about all i found wrong with my build so far. Have novell install at t-12 stage so happy managed to get that sorted too and unattended! I think i read somewhere that muting sound was near enough impossible to do as its done per soundcard in registry or something but surely number 3 can be done right?

So any help with these 10 annoyances for me would be really helpful!

Cheers

Nick

p.s sorry for the long message!

The following should help...

for # 10, set DWORD to 0000

set SVCKEY=HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
SET CUCVKEY=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

rem Disable Beep
reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Beep /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 04 /f

reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced /v IntelliMenus /t REG_DWORD /d 0000 /f

rem Disable Send Report on system crash
reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl /v SendAlert /t REG_DWORD /d 0000 /f
echo Disables Error Reporting, but notifies when errors occur
reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReporting /v DoReport /t REG_DWORD /d 0000 /f
