Recommended Posts

hallo...in the Tweaks post i've found a useful tweak that permit to customize the "Save As..." dialog...btw, for me isn't so clear...and after digging in it here my resoults:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

;=======================================================================
;  Windows General Settings
;=======================================================================
;-----  
;-----  Preset Folder Customizations for dialog box like "Save as..."
;-----  Sets default to Desktop
;-----  then lists Desktop, System Drive, C:, My Documents, and "MY WORKGROUP" Places on side
;-----  System Drive here is represented as %systemdrive% in the registry, so add the following:
;-----  "Place1"=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,00,00,00

mmm, interesting...so...there's a way to integrate it in an unattended installation?

maybe copying it in %windir%\system32 the place.dll, and registering the dll with "Regsvr32 %windir%\system32\Places.dll"?

Um... I use the following (converted from my INF file) and it works flawlessly:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Comdlg32\PlacesBar]
"Place1"=dword:00000000
"Place2"=dword:00000011
"Place3"=dword:00000005

Note: There is no "Place0".

@mrmr - Your link doesn't work.

@RavRod - You have a key called comdlg32, this is the COM added by the places install. So, did you install it or just use those keys, and will it create the subkeys needed? sorry if these questions are dumb.
