Microsoft Windows XP Registry Guide (Bpg-Other)
|
|
This chapter just scratches the surface. If I had the space, I could fill another 50 pages with great Windows XP hacks. But you do find good hacks in other chapters:
-
Chapter 5, "Mapping Tweak UI," shows you where all the settings in Tweak UI are in the registry. Tweak UI makes the most popular hacks available in one sleek user interface, and this chapter documents the corresponding hacks.
-
Chapter 8, "Finding Registry Settings," helps you discover your own hacks.
-
Chapter 15, "Working Around IT Problems," contains hacks that apply to IT scenarios, such as deploying software or fixing IT-unfriendly behavior.
-
Appendix A, "File Associations," describes HKCR in detail, including hacking it.
And don't forget the chapters in Part IV, "Appendices." These chapters are the ultimate source for registry hacks because they document the most interesting settings found in the registry.
| Note | Quite possibly the single largest and most usable source of registry hacks is published by WinGuides at http://www.winguides.com/registry. Download the Registry Guide, which is an HTML help file that's well organized and formatted. This guide contains hundreds if not thousands of useful settings that enable you to customize all versions of Windows. Another useful and popular Web site is Jerold Schulman's at http://www.jsiinc.com. He has put significant energy into the thousands of IT tips and tricks on his Web site. |
