Tour pops up

[bottled leaf]

When i first boot up XP, the take the tour thing pops up in the tray. I know I uninstalled. When I click it doesnt do anything. So like what file do i delete?

Another quick question: In the task manager processes tab, my user name is not shown under the user name tab, how do i get that back?

There's a reg tweak that was added in nLite 1.0. It's still in 1.0.1. If you remove the tour and choose to enable that tweak, it won't come up.

And remember, even though you have removed the tweak it will come up because Windows itself doesn't know about nLite's capability to remove components

ah ok.

So what reg tweak to I have to do?

Also any ideas on the task manager? I think it is because I deleted secondardy logon. ugh i keep deleting stuff that I need lol

Open TaskMan, go to View>Select Columns>Tick box username and click OK

Windows registry editor 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour]
"RunCount"=DWORD:0

I can't remember how to put DWORD values in the registry cos I usally just export the important key and post it but I think it's that.

The task manager thing is maybe caused by the removal of secondary logon.

However I think it is because you probably removed Terminal Service, as I do.

And then, the box in task manager can not be unticked because it is not there anymore.

There's a reg tweak for this. However, the key is a binary/hex one and does not set a single setting but many.

Enabled will look like : XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 01 XX XX XX XX XX

And disabled, like : XX XX XX XX XX XX XX XX 00 XX XX XX XX XX

It's pretty hard to find the proper byte to change. Moreover if you use somebody's else reg tweak it will probably change some of your settings for task manager.

The easier thing to do is to change the column width : drag and drop so it has 0px width.

As far as I'm concerned, this is an annoyance. I'll probably make an app to change this or something.
