I'm trying to create a new .adm file that will allow me to set the Windows XP search back to the Windows 2000 interface as well as hide that language bar that always pops up by default. There are a few others but these two will get me started on the path to learning the rest.

I know that there are.reg hacks for them but I'd rather control it domainwide with an .adm file.

Thanks in advance...

Download NUTS from this page:

In that archive is a file called RegToADM.exe...guess what it does

I've only played with it, but never actually tried to impliment it or test it...

I've written a few VBS scripts to accomplish this. KillSearchAssistantXP.vbs and RemoveLangBar.vbs which are a part of a package of scripts I've written. You can use them standalone or as User Logon Scripts via Active Directory Policy.
