Ten common Windows Registry skills

1. prevent anonymous users from logging on

Although Windows allows each user to customize their own interface and specify a password, anyone can click "cancel" in the logon window or Press ESC to enter the system, which is called Anonymous logon. The following method prevents anonymous users from logging on. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Network \ logon, create a DWORD type "mustbevalidated" with a value of 1. (Appendix: if none of them can be entered, you can enter in security mode and change the value to 0 .) Note: This method does not work in a peer-to-peer network.

2. Rearranging input methods

You can re-Sort all input methods according to your own needs, such as placing the most commonly used five-stroke input methods at the beginning. Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ keyboard layout \ preload in sequence. You can see the names of multiple subkeys whose names increase progressively from number 1, the number of sub-keys corresponds to the number of input methods installed in the system. Assume that the input method corresponding to the sub-key name "2" is exchanged with the input method corresponding to the sub-key name "5, move the input method corresponding to the sub-key "5" to the second place. The method is as follows. right-click the sub-key "2" and choose "RENAME" to rename the sub-key "2" to "22" or other non-existent names, rename the sub-key "5" to "2", and then change the sub-key "22" to "5 ".

3. Quick open file editing

Maybe you often useProgramAnd the extension of these files is random. For convenience, we can add this program to the right-click menu. Take the WordPad as an example. Create a "shell" subkey under hkey_classes_root \ * and create a "WordPad" subkey under it, double-click "default" in the right window of the key and enter "WordPad" in the "key value" column. Then, create the next level sub-key "command" under the "WordPad" sub-key ", enter "C: \ Program Files \ accessories \ wordpad.exe % 1" in the "key value" column of "default ". You do not need to restart the system. Now, right-click any file in "My Computer" or "Resource Manager" (of course, it can be loaded on the tablet, regardless of whether it is associated or not ), select "WordPad" to quickly open the file and edit it.

4. Improve the refresh speed of the Resource Manager

After you add or delete a folder in "Windows Resource Manager", you can press F5 to view the latest refresh results. However, it is very troublesome to do this each time. In fact, by modifying the registry, this refresh can be fully automated. The specific method is to open the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ update branch, and include an updatemode key value name in the update subkey. The key value is 01, and double-click updatemode, change 01 to 00.

5. Disable the disk icon in "My computer"

In a multi-user operating environment, you can set different disk drive icons for different users to restrict the operation permissions of various users. Open the HKEY-CURRENT-USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer branch, where the nodrives key value name facilitates setting different disk drive icons for different users, the default key value is 0x00000000. The nodrives key value is four bytes, and each bit of each byte corresponds to a drive letter (.~ Z.), that is, the first byte represents the eight disks from A. to H., that is, 01 is A., 02 is B., 04 is C ...., 80 is H .. The second byte represents I. to P., the third byte represents Q. to X. The fourth byte represents Y. and Z .. Therefore, when the corresponding bit is 1, you can open "my computer" and no longer see the corresponding disk. For example, we want to disable C. disk, you only need to right-click the nodrives key value name, and then select "modify" from the shortcut menu to change its key value to 04000000; To disable D. disk, the key value is changed to 08000000; To disable C. and D ., change the key value to 0c000000.

6. Rename the recycle bin

We can easily change the names of most icons on the desktop, but cannot rename the recycle bin directly. If you want to change the "recycle bin" name, you must change the "default" value of the right window key of hky_classes_root \ CLSID \ {645ff040-5081-101b-9f08-00aa002f954e} to another name (for example "garbage bins "), close Registry Editor and restart Win98.

7. Change the icon of my computer and recycle bin

In Windows 98, the icons of "My Computer" and "recycle bin" cannot be changed like the icon of a normal file. You can only modify the registry of the system to enable the Registry Editor, in the registry, select the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Classes \ CLSID" option, select Edit \ search, type "recycle bin", and confirm. After the item is found, select the defaulticon option for the item and double-click "full" (or "deafult" or "empty") in the name column "), in the displayed dialog box, the icon file corresponding to the "recycle bin" is displayed. Change this value to your favorite icon file (note that you must write the full file path ). You can modify the "my computer" icon in the same way, as long as you type "my computer" during search and confirm.

8. Delete the system-level icon on the desktop

When you want to delete the recycle bin, inbox, and neighborhood icons on the desktop, you will find that they cannot be deleted in the normal way. You can only modify the registry. open the Registry Editor, first set the branch keyword and the string value of the right window under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ mcrosoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ Desktop \ namespace (in paper) write down (for recovery), delete unnecessary branches, Close Registry Editor, restart Win98, and check the desktop.

9. set two IP addresses for one machine

Generally, only one IP address can be configured for one network adapter. However, by modifying the system registry, you can configure multiple IP addresses for one network adapter: run the Registry Editor, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ class \ nettrans. In this directory, You can see multiple names: 0000, 0001, 0002... Directory, which is used to record the installation of the Protocol. Find the directory where driverdesc is "TCP/IP" and modify the IPaddress and ipmask keys. IPaddress is multiple IP addresses separated by commas, and ipmask is the corresponding mask. For example, if you set IPaddress to "202.10.1.10, 202.10.1.25" and ipmask to "255.255.255.0, 255.255.255.0", two IP addresses 202.10.1.10 and 202.10.1.25 are set for the system.

10. zooming the control window

If you want to fix the windows application window, that is, the Windows application window cannot be reduced, open the registry and go to hkey-current-user \ control pannel \ Desktop \ Windows metries; double-click the key name minanimate, if you change the value to "0", the window cannot be reduced. If you change to "1", the window can be reduced.
