Timorad Posted October 17, 2004 Posted October 17, 2004 I've got a slight problem with the start menu, and specificly the list of recently ran programs. Somehow, after applying the tweaks, this list just stays empty. Has anyone encountered this before or knows the solution to this?No-one? Am I the only one, or is everybody using the classic start menu?
snelephant Posted October 17, 2004 Posted October 17, 2004 Is there a way to display the recycle bin on My Computer but not on the desktop? The regtweak that removes the recycle bin from the desktop also seems to remove it from My Computer.;[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NonEnum]"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001Value 1 removes the icon from both the desktop and from My Computer. Value 0 displays the icon in both locations.

Perhaps you have the regtweak applied (like me) to disable this list... check your regtweak files!

I can understand that people find this feature annoying, however I'm kinda used to it I've got NoStartMenuMFUprogramsList commented out, so that can't be the problem. Any ideas?
ZileXa Posted October 17, 2004 Posted October 17, 2004 (I'm sorry for 3 posts instead of one... )@Timorad: have no ideasHI, I found a nice regtweak... but don't know how to apply it in my regtweak.reg file for unattended install...:Power Management - Change Power Management ConfigurationThis parameter allows you to specify the primary role of the computer so that predefined power management configurations can be used. For example a laptop will have different power saving features than a home desktop PC. Go to Start/Run/Regedit and find the key below.[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\PowerCfg]System Key: [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg]Value Name: CurrentPowerPolicyData Type: REG_SZ (String Value)Modify the existing value, or create a new string value, called "CurrentPowerPolicy" and set it to a value (0 to 5) from the table below. * 0 - Home/Office desktop * 1 - Portable/Laptop computer * 2 - Monitor on for presentations * 3 - Network computer (no Wake-on-LAN) * 4 - Optimized for high performance * 5 - Optimized for power savingRestart Windows for the change to take effect.Now, I'd like to modify 0, 1 and 2 the name and the values. I know how to modify the names. Also want to remove 3, 4 and 5. But in Regedit these items are like folders... I don't know what I should put in the regfile to delete these! Who can help?Below I have a preview about the regtweak so far:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00;Change Power Management Configuration[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg\0]"Description"="This is the standardschedule, for all computers""Name"="Enerysave""Policies"=hex:[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg\1]"Description"="This is a schedule balbalbla""Name"="monitoroff""Policies"=hex:[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\PowerCfg\2]"Description"="Disabled, good for presentations or if u don't want pc to go in stby""Name"="All OFF""Policies"=hex:As you can see, I have no values yet for "Policies". That's my second problem!First, I just set my own scheme in the Control Panel and save it.Then I start Regedit, and go to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\PowerCfg]here I can find the scheme just made, and the values for "Policies". As you can see in the image, its a big list! How to I put these in the regfile?Here a screenshot of Regedit. This is the "Policies" for the scheme I made, it is set to poweroff monitor after 10min, HDD after 10min, standby after 20 min.2nd prob: How do I add all these values in my regtweak file correctly?1st prob: How to delete the 'folders' (perhaps the correct term is string value) 3,4 and 5?
