Have a wrong regtweak!

;----- Adds My Network Places to MY Computer
;-----  
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\
{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}]

(in 2 lines to maintain the structure of this website)

It does add "My Network Places" to My Computer, but when I go to My Computer, and double click the "My Network Places" icon, I dont get my network places!!

I get "Search for Computers" instead!

I have a workaround for this one.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{a0f54ce8-0096-412b-870e-e5ed0a2502a3}]

"SearchHelper"="ShellObjectEditor: Mijn netwerklocaties"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{a0f54ce8-0096-412b-870e-e5ed0a2502a3}\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\SHELL32.DLL,17"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{a0f54ce8-0096-412b-870e-e5ed0a2502a3}\InProcServer32]

"ThreadingModel"="Apartment"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{a0f54ce8-0096-412b-870e-e5ed0a2502a3}\Instance]
"CLSID"="{0afaced1-e828-11d1-9187-b532f1e9575d}"

"Attributes"=dword:f8000010
"WantsFORPARSING"=""

Just translate the tooltips and icon title to your own OS language.

This is because Network places and My computer are search results folders. for some reason find is opened, but not the search results folder.

The first two lines add the icon to My Computer

The rest creates a new Shell Object

Hi guys,

I like to ask..

1) How do I apply registry setting to all User when running unattended xp setup?

2) What the different between HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_USER? Something weird happening to me. The first time I made my unattended XP I succesful change My Documents, My Music, My Pictures and My Video default folder using registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER segment.

BUT...

The next Unattended XPI made I cannot apply those registry entry I succesfull use before. In this Xp I need to use Registry entries under the HKEY_USER.  For your information both XP have only one account.

WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN??

Hi there,

1)

a) In your winnt.sif you've got to have the following entries:

[unattended]

UnattendMode=FullUnattended

OemPreinstall=Yes

b) Put your regfile in your $OEM$ folder, e.g. regtweaks.reg, and then you must add to the cmdlines.txt the line(if not existing just create it and set [commands] as first line):

"REGEDIT /S regtweaks.reg"

c) Now your tweaks are integrated in the default user account, before any other account exists, so they are also integrated in every new created account.

2) HKEY_CURRENT_USER is the part of registry with information of the current logged on user, while HKEY_USERS is the part, where every user-specific registry-setting is stored, e.g. HKEY_USERS\.Default for the default user.

So HKEY_CURRENT_USER user is also contained in HKEY_USERS

great job. thx, this file is very helpfull. but i think there might be a missing blank @ line 1010 for the key to set windows registered:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion]
"RegDone"="1"

as i know there has to be like this:

... [COLOR=red]Windows NT[/COLOR]...

Glowy, can you tell us what you get once "Network Places is clicked?

With the workaround?

The same when you click the My network places on the desktop.

Without the workaround?

just find.

To make it easier, here is the tool I've used to make the workaround:

Shell Object Editor just make a new shell object pointing to

::{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}

including the ::

You can make your own shell objects with this tool.

Its because u have done the change recycle bin icons wrong.

Should be something like this:

Change Recycle Bin Icons
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\DefaultIcon]

 20,00,46,00,75,00,6c,00,6c,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,2c,00,30,00,00,00
"Empty"=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,44,00,72,00,69,00,76,\
 00,65,00,25,00,5c,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,6e,00,73,00,5c,00,42,00,69,00,6e,00,\
 20,00,45,00,6d,00,70,00,74,00,79,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,2c,00,30,00,00,\
 00

Easy way is import the above and then open with redit and change to your icons. ;)
