Hi.

I'm facing some problem with my unattended CD. Everything is fine except that the following 2 problems.

1. "Lock the taskbar" is not being highlighted or unavailable for selection. Its greyed out (the context menu for task bar)

2. "the command prompt window behaves a little strange. The backspace key doesnt works in the cmd window(s).

I've read through lines in the tweak, but since I adapted it from some one, I dont know how to fix these. Could you guys please help me identify what is causing the problem. I'm attaching my regtweak file here.

Thanks,

p.s: The reg tweak file is not adapted from one single person, Its the hard work of all the contributing members of this community. So I'm not able to give credit to one particular person for that.

can't help with the backspace key but changing

; Lock The TaskBar

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]

"LockTaskbar"=dword:00000001

to

; Lock The TaskBar

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]

"LockTaskbar"=dword:00000000

fixes your taskbar problem

thanks JBM

2. "the command prompt window behaves a little strange. The backspace key doesnt works in the cmd window(s).

Remove (or comment out) the following from your .reg file.

; cmd prompt enhancements:  tab key completes path+filenames, UNC checks off
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]
"CompletionChar"=dword:00000008
"PathCompletionChar"=dword:00000008
"DisableUNCCheck"=dword:00000001

"PathCompletionChar"=dword:00000008
"DisableUNCCheck"=dword:00000001

You don't have to remove it, just replace the 8:s with 9:s to use tab (=default) as the completion character.

More info here and here.

My bad, DL. is correct.

thanks BoardBabe & DL

You're welcome, glad to help!
