tsk Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 (edited) I mean when I mouse over given icon. Which option in nLite (registry entry) is responsible for displaying them? Ask because I lost them (they don't display ATM ) and I'm pretty sure that I've had/seen them right after nLited OS install. Now they're suddenly gone - how to restore them?In the meantime I used MS TweakUI for XP (2.10) and changed a few options there (don't remember which ones now). I suspect this could be the culprit. So bonus Q is: which option in TweakUI is responsible for it as well? Edited November 9, 2006 by tsk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r3incarnat0r Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 nLite has this tweak to disable tooltips on icon under mouse pointer:Perfomance > Disable Info Tips on Files and FoldersYou can revert it with this REG file:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]"FolderContentsInfoTip"=dword:00000001"ShowInfoTip"=dword:00000001I think it can be also set somewhere in the Folder Options.

tsk Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 r3incarnat0r (and others): I have both set to 0 and still, sometimes tooltips over icons in tray and quick launch bar appear on mouse over, sometimes (more frequently) they do not (like now). Sometimes they appear but lower part of tooltips is covered by Windows taskbar. So it must be some other setting. I'll stress that I'm talking ONLY about tooltips in 2 areas: system tray and quick launch bar. I never see them in other places and don't want to see them elsewhere besides these 2 spots. But I do want to see them in tray/QLB - and it's very intermittent ATM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camarade_Tux Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I'm not sure what you're talking about (precisely).Would you mind taking a screenshot ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsk Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 (edited) > Would you mind taking a screenshot ?Camarade_Tux, here are 2 example screenshots of it "in action". Please note that most of the time I CAN'T see these tooltips (even partially occluded) AT ALL. I haven't worked out yet on what depends whether they appear or not. They might appeatr like in screens attached, and 1 minute later they don't appear at all (on mouse over of course).
