chevin Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 You might try monitoring the registry while you change the GUI options to add My Documents to the start menu.That should get you the right registry key to start from, then I imagine its a matter of adding the CLSID or whatever it is that points to My Computer/My Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzöwl Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Take a look at the following registry key;HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AdvancedThe two keys you refer to are "Start_ShowMyComputer""Start_ShowNetPlaces"But there are many others there you can add, remove or cascade.REG_DWORD = 0x00000000 => Don't showREG_DWORD = 0x00000001 => ShowREG_DWORD = 0x00000002 => Show cascadedHope this helps!

jfmartel Posted February 10, 2005 Author Share Posted February 10, 2005 According to Winguides this tweaks works only on the Xp Start Menu.Just to make sure it wasn't working, i tried it..... Doesn't work... Seems like a couple tweaks doesnt work with "classic" start menu. I'm having some problem to get the "small icons" in start menu too.That was a nice try, thank you for helping me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
