Unsolved regtweaks

[eirogge]

This is what i found:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"msnmsgr"="\"C:\\Program Files\\MSN Messenger\\msnmsgr.exe\" /background"

I'm going to try in a minute or so what happens when i remove it.

Don't know where the double "\\" comes from, just exported the key from regedit..

dont know if you knew already but to delete this key via reg-file use the following:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"msnmsgr"=-

[BAM]

When you see a regshot saying "HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-2...." then you can replace it with "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\..."

So:

HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-746137067-606747145-725345543-500\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\AppSettings

Will become

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\AppSettings

big_gie / eirogge, i am pleased that you read this and gave me these very usefull tips!! (saw the "msnmsgr"=- allready in big-gie's .xml sheet tho)

thank you again, didn't know these.

i'm going to have lots of fun with it and help someone else with it when he/she has the same prob's.
