Marztabator Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 look in the registry guide post. (the one that has 15 pages it tells you in there how to disable it using a reghack.)Are you talking about Windows Tour here? Man, if there was a sure way to not only disallow its install, but to prevent XP from even mentioning it at the first startup at all, I'd be chuffed.

GreenMachine Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 There must be a tweak somewhere: I have not been offered a "Windows Tour" in a long time. I forgot all about it.[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour]"RunCount"=dword:00000000... could be this ...

baliktad Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 The Windows Tour is something I find SO highly annoying I broke down and edited hivesft.inf in my install source. Simply adding this line in the [AddReg] section will turn it off permanently for all users.HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour","RunCount",0x00010003,0 ;Added 21 May 2003Generally I will try to keep my changes to more detached methods such as [GuiRunOnce] in unattend.txt and the like (to protect against future service packs) but I wanted to make sure that there would be NO way I would ever see that tour again, no matter what my install method.

DarkBringer Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 There are four spaces between the last "0" and ";Added 21 May 2003"Is this a typo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsteve Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 No, you can leave the files un compressed. I just made a CD with ALL the files uncompressed, this way XP does not have to unzip on the fly, so the install goes faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
