Registry Tweaks Pt 3

**ZileXa** · October 8, 2005

So I just reinstalled an old laptop with my uA disc, didn't had any RecycleBin tweaks.

Just used the tweak you gave:

;Add Empty Recycle Bin To My Computer Right Click Context Menu

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Empty Recycle Bin]

@="{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"

Unfortunately, this adds "Empty recyclebin" to all folders and drives.

Just to test I also applied the deletekeys, but that didn't had any effect (ofcourse this was a 'clean' install so there was nothing to delete).

I will try to find a fix for this.

Same goes for the Unlocker thing:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\Shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\UnlockerShellExtension]

@="{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"

This is not neccesary, Unlocker installer already installs UnlockerShellExtension to "ContextMenuHandlers". This does not place Unlocker to my computer... at least not with me.. Does install it to all other contextmenus (also Menu Starts context menu!)

but it should be in My pc context menu as well! the tweak above for Recycle Bin is excactly te same.. just a different shellcode... why does recyclebin appear in my pc context menu and Unlocker doesn't??

Very strange...

EDIT:

To add something to My Computer Contextmenu ONLY I thing this is perhaps the only way:

;add Control Panel to right-click My Computer
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Control Panel]
@="Start Control Panel"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Control Panel\command]
@="rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL"

Will try to create same thing but then for Unlocker and Empty Recycle Bin.

F*ck I can't get things with a CODE to work...

Unlocker has the code: {DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}

Empty Recycle Bin: {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

Thanks for the input for setting defaults for all users, I have done that before. I want to have it setup with the UA installation. I want to be able to apply the tweaks for any users that log on.

Express, I understand. It works fine to put your tweaks in through cmdlines.txt. If you had a problem w/that then you probably need to check the tweaks you're using and where you're putting them.

I use INF files for my UA. Here's the line I use in cmdlines.txt:

"RUNDLL32.EXE SETUPAPI.DLL,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 C:\Windows\Inf\<name-of-tweak-file.inf>"

Here's some of the stuff I set for all users through my <name-of-tweak-file.inf>:

Almost for the [strings] section:

[Strings]				;;;  should be the same on all INFs
IEMain = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main"
MSWin = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft"
MSWMPPref = "Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences"
MSWMPPlayExt = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Extensions"
MSWinCV = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion"
MSWinCVExp = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer"
MSWinCVExpCS = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CabinetState"
MSWinCVExpAdv = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced"
MSWinCVExpAdvFolder = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder"
MSWinCVExpStrms = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams"
MSWinCVExpVE = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects"

CCSControl001 = "SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control"
CCSServices = "SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services"
CCSServices001 = "SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services"
Classes = "SOFTWARE\Classes"

All the above works fine for me. Either change the values you want or delete the lines you don't like. Should work. I didn't include all the comments explaining what each tweak is, I'm assuming you know most of them.

Some of the settings have to be applied to HKLM as well as HKCU.

Hope this helps you.

Um ZileXa, me and you seem to be getting different results.

**war59312** · October 11, 2005

Reg tweaks updated on first page.

Very nice!

Though for future reference I highly recommand Registry_Tweaks_October_10th_2005 instead of Registry_Tweaks_10_10_05 since not every Country uses the same date format. That is to say someone might think the current files is October 5th 2010 .

And I think font:@Arial Unicode MS;size:10 looks best.

Just picking.

I'm not sure how we can get different results if we do the same thing...

You put the exact same entries in as I listed, via cmdlines.txt and it did something different? I'd really like to see the file you used and how you applied it.

Getting different results for the same thing doesn't make sense.

When working w/the registry, entries have to be very specific and very often 2 or more keys have to be set together to get the desired result. As an example the following keys look similar appear to do the same thing but if any one is left out or changed, the results will be totally different.

HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects","ShowSuperHidden",0x00010001,0x00000001
HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced","SuperHidden",0x00010001,0x00000001
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\SuperHidden","CheckedValue",0x00010001,0x00000000
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\SuperHidden","UncheckedValue",0x00010001,0x00000001
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\SuperHidden","DefaultValue",0x00010001,0x00000001

NemoNada,

Thanks so much for the information you have provided, and taking the time to do so. I will try it and let you know.

Thanks,

That's just it, did not test it. Just is what I applied manually on my live computer. Must be some other settings in the registry that I had since applied.

Well hope you figure it out.

So I just reinstalled an old laptop with my uA disc, didn't had any RecycleBin tweaks.
Just used the tweak you gave:
;Add Empty Recycle Bin To My Computer Right Click Context Menu
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Empty Recycle Bin]
@="{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"
Unfortunately, this adds "Empty recyclebin" to all folders and drives.
Just to test I also applied the deletekeys, but that didn't had any effect (ofcourse this was a 'clean' install so there was nothing to delete).
I will try to find a fix for this.

Ok so something like this:

;Add Empty Recycle Bin To My Computer Right Click Context Menu
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Test]
@="Test"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Test\command]
@="{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"

Not working for some reason though and do not get why. But that how you add to just my computer context menu.

i've a problem,

i'm importing a REG_NONE type with a REG

command.

The .reg entry says the value is "hex(0):"

but if i execute this line:

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.nfo\OpenWithProgids" /V "MSInfo.Document" /T REG_NONE /D hex(0): /F

the value in the registry is not the same (no binary value).

Why?

**gilesw** · October 14, 2005

I've split the tweaks into 2 files. might be of use to someone, i've corrected a few things too added all to the changelog.

tested both files. safever and powerver.

just rename the files to .reg and run

i've found some more duplicates!

moved 8.3 dos filename to power.

sorted cmd enhancements

changed recommended notepad replacement to scite, same core really

have you the solution to my problem on the previous post?

**Synapse** · October 15, 2005

gilesw, as a precaution to other members, could you take those down rename them from .reg to .txt so no one on accident downloads and runs it and screws up their registry.

**didadocom** · October 17, 2005

Anybody:

This doesn't work in regtweaks, it is always 12% !!!

---- Set System Restore Space Allotment at 5% (not default 12%) ----

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore]

"DiskPercent"=dword:00000005
