140 tips for using Windows (2)

71. Windows 98/2000 window style

Some people may not like Windows XP's window style and want to restore the original windows 98/2000 interface. What should I do? Right-click the blank area on the desktop, select "properties" from the shortcut menu, and select the "topic" tab in the pop-up window, select "Windows classic" from the "theme" drop-down menu, and then click "OK.

72. Add the "show desktop" item

Under the default installation, we cannot find the familiar "display desktop" button in the taskbar. Is this a good function available in Windows XP? Actually not. Click Start/set/control panel/taskbar and start menu in sequence. In the "Taskbar and Start Menu properties" window, check the "show Quick Start" option and the "show desktop" option will appear in the taskbar.

73. Hide the desktop icon

In Windows XP, the desktop icon hiding function is added. You only need to click the blank area of the desktop and select the "arrange icon" command in the pop-up context menu, then, in the next cascading menu, deselect the "show desktop icon" command, and the system will automatically hide all desktop icons.

74. Cancel the arrow on the shortcut icon

After you install some software, some shortcut icons are usually placed on the Windows XP desktop, allowing you to easily start the application. Only the black arrows on the shortcut icons of these applications affect the desktop appearance. To remove the Black Arrow, perform the following operations:
Open the Registry Editor and go to the hkey_classes_root/lnkfile sub-key branch. In this sub-key branch, find the key value isshortcut, whose type is REG_SZ. Delete this value, you can remove the arrow on the shortcut icon. After logging out of the current user and restarting the computer, the setting takes effect.

75. Quickly open the control panel

Move the mouse over the start button, right-click, and select Properties/custom/advanced/start menu item ", under the "control area panel" project, select "show as menu" (figure 10) and click "OK, in the future, you can open a control panel project in the "Start" menu just like opening a program, which saves a lot of time.

76. Place your favorite program near the top of the Start Menu

Do you like a program very much and often use it? Then, you should increase its priority in the Start Menu by placing it at the top of the list. This method ensures that the program remains in the Start menu and is not disturbed by other programs, even if other programs have a higher usage frequency.
On the Start menu, right-click the link to your favorite program, and select "attach to 'start' menu" in the shortcut menu that appears later. Your program will be permanently moved to the top of the list, just under the browser and email program.

77. Remove the text shadow of the desktop icon

In earlier versions of Windows, when using a custom desktop, the text of the icon has a shadow (that is, your Desktop color), which affects the desktop visual effect. It was originally only solved with other software, but the performance was unstable and occupied system resources. Windows XP helps you solve this problem! As long as you open your computer properties, right-click "my computer", select "properties" in the pop-up menu, and click "set" in the "performance" box on the "advanced" tab, on the visual effects page, hook the box in front of "use shadow for icon labels on the desktop. Click OK to return to system properties, and then click OK to return to the desktop. Look at the icon on your desktop, which has achieved your dream! In this way, both visual effects and system resources can be achieved.

In the pop-up power options property settings window, click "Advanced Power Management" to tick "enable advanced power management support.

79. Back up the hardware configuration file

The hardware configuration file can instruct Windows XP to load the correct driver when the hardware is changed. If we install or modify some hardware, the system may fail to start or run normally, then we can use the hardware configuration file to restore the previous hardware configuration. We recommend that you back up the hardware configuration file every time you install or modify the hardware, which can easily solve many system problems caused by hardware configuration. The backup procedure is as follows: Right-click "my computer", select the "properties" command from the shortcut menu, open the "System Properties" dialog box, and click the "hardware" tab, in the displayed window, click the hardware configuration file button to open the hardware configuration file dialog box, the "available hardware configuration files" List displays a list of available hardware configuration files on the local computer. In the "hardware configuration file selection" area, you can select which hardware configuration file to call when Windows XP is enabled (if there are multiple hardware configuration files. To back up the hardware configuration file, click "copy", enter a new file name in the "to" text box in the "copy configuration file" dialog box, and then click "OK.
