ikevin Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I want to use the Windows XP style start menu as you all may have read before. haha. But see, if I do that and do not use the classic style, then I have to add a registry tweak for showing certain icons on the desktop, here is what I use to do that:;Display Desktop icons[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]"{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000"{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}"=dword:00000000"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000"{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000But I also want them to be displayed in that order which is:My ComputerMy DocumentsRecycle BinInternet ExplorerObviously if I just leave the tweak like that the order it puts the icons in is first My Computer (I added the 00000054 binary tweak to do that) then My Documents and then Internet Explorer. Yep, the Recycle Bin still shows up way in the bottom right-hand corner.So I found a tweak to move it over by the rest of the icons and it is:;Move Recycle Bin by the rest of the icons[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}]"SortOrderIndex"=dword:00000000But that makes it just show up under the Internet Explorer icon and I want it ABOVE it.Now everything I try to get the Recycle Bin to appear above the Internet Explorer icon doesn't work. I have searched everywhere and I cannot find anythingBy the way, th code I used to get the My Computer before my documents is this:;Order icons for the Desktop[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}]"SortOrderIndex"=dword:00000054Thanks for your help.

ikevin Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 Is there an easier way to do this rather than manually after unattended install is finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
