Nugzo Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 After Doing an Unattended Install. I get 2 Desktop config files Opening with notepad at startup. They are easy to get rid of after install. They bother me though and I want em gone before i have to see em! i did some research but was not real lucky. microsoft says just delete them from startup folder. Any way to do this through a registry tweak before Desktop? maybe something i can add along with my other registry tweaks. Any Help i Thank you in advance! heres Microsofts Solution Notepad Starts With "[.ShellClassInfo]desktop.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzöwl Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 A few ideas,The desktop.ini is related to using Active Desktop, therefore you could either:1. Disable Active Desktop.[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]"NoActiveDesktop"=dword:00000001Add this to one of your reg files.2. Keep Active Desktop and refresh the screen, thus overwriting the desktop.ini file.rundll32 user,repaintscreenAdd this to a batch at logonJust change the ini file attributes:3. The hidden /system attributes can be directly reapplied to the desktop.ini file.@echo offcd /D %HOMEDRIVE%\attrib +S +H Desktop.ini /SexitAdd this batch at logon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
