Other edits to the recycle bin icon:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\ {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}\ ShellFolder
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,01,20 ... standard shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,02,20 ... a different shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,04,20 ... and still another shortcut arrow
"Attributes"=hex:40,01,08,20 ... make it look disabled (like it's been cut) 
For Windows XP and 2000 also edit HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\ Microsoft\ Windows\ CurrentVersion\ Explorer\ CLSID\ {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

If you have a problem locating the desired program open each key and view the DisplayName value
The File Types tab in Explorer's View / Options menu lets you edit most of your file types, but certain settings cannot be changed. The default action for a batch file, for instance, runs the batch file instead of opening it via Notepad or Wordpad. Thus, when you double-click on AUTOEXEC.BAT, a DOS window opens, and the file executes. If you want to change this default action and edit a batch file when you double-click on it, however, the File Types tab does not let you do so; the Set Default button for the file type called MS-DOS Batch File is always grayed out.
The button is grayed out because HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT's batfile key contains an EditFlag value entry. Such entries are used throughout the Registry to prevent novice users from altering certain system settings. The binary data in batfile's EditFlag reads d0 04 00 00. If you change this value to 00 00 00 00, you can then change any of the batch file settings. Do not, however, indiscriminately zero out EditFlag; if you do so in a system ProgID such as Drive or AudioCD, it completely disappears from the File Types list. For ProgIDs that are linked to extensions, set all EditFlags to 00 00 00 00. For system ProgIDs, replace EditFlag data with 02 00 00 00.
If you wish to have access to some buttons while leaving others grayed out, you must know the function of each EditFlag bit. The last two bytes of data are always zero, but most bits within the first two bytes have a specific effect:
  • Byte 1, bit 1: Removes the file type from the master list in the File Types tab (select View / Options under Explorer) if it has an associated extension.
  • Byte 1, bit 2: Adds the file type to the File Types tab if it does not have an associated extension.
  • Byte 1, bit 3: Identifies a type with no associated extension.
  • Byte 1, bit 4: Grays out the Edit button in the File Types tab.
  • Byte 1, bit 5: Grays out the Remove button in the File Types tab.
  • Byte 1, bit 6: Grays out the New button in the Edit File Type dialog (select the Edit button in the File Types tab).
  • Byte 1, bit 7: Grays out the Edit button in the Edit File Type dialog.
  • Byte 1, bit 8: Grays out the Remove button in the Edit File Type dialog.
  • Byte 2, bit 1: Prevents you from editing a file type's description in the Edit File Type dialog.
  • Byte 2, bit 2: Grays out the Change Icon button in the Edit File Type dialog.
  • Byte 2, bit 3: Grays out the SetDefault button in the Edit File Type dialog.
  • Byte 2, bit 4: Prevents you from editing an action's description in the Edit Action dialog (select the Edit button in the Edit File Type dialog).
  • Byte 2, bit 5: Prevents you from editing the command line in the Edit Action dialog.
  • Byte 2, bit 6: Prevents you from setting DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) fields in the Edit Action dialog.
The EditFlags value for Drive, for instance, is d2 01 00 00 in Hex (1101 0010 0000 0001 in binary). Bits 2, 5, 7, and 8 are on in byte 1, and bit 1 is on in byte 2. The EditFlag for batfile is d0 04 00 00 in Hex or 1101 0000 0000 0100 in binary. In this case, bits 5, 7, and 8 are on in byte 1, and bit 3 is on in byte 2.
Bits 4, 5, and 6 of byte 2 apply only to actions that are protected. EditFlags with action keys (such as HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\batfile\shell\open) determine protection. If byte 1, bit 1 of such an EditFlag is 0 (or if there is no EditFlag), then the action is protected. If byte 1, bit 1 is 1, then the action is unprotected.
To enable protection on system files such as the KnownDLLs list, add the  following value;
1. Open RegEdit
2. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\ Control\ SessionManager
3. Create the a Dword value and name it "ProtectionMode "
4. Set the Value to1

By using the Windows Instrumentation command-line interface (WMIC), you can easily uninstall an application without having to use the GUI. Once you become familiar with the steps, it will be much faster than having to access the Add/Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel. This Tech-Recipe applies to Windows XP Professional, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008.


1. Open a command prompt.
2. Input WMIC and press Return. You will see a prompt that looks like this:
 
wmic:root\cli>

3. At the new prompt, execute the following command:
 
product get name

This will generate a list of installed applications.

4. At the prompt, execute the following command:
 
product where name="" call uninstall

where application name is the name of the program you wish to uninstall (use the exact name provided by the previously generated list).

For example, if I were wanting to uninstall Adobe Reader 9, my command would look like this:
product where name="Adobe Reader 9" call uninstall

5. When prompted, input y to confirm that you wish to uninstall the application and press Return.
The application will be uninstalled.

This modification will allow Explorer to show thumbnails of bitmap files (*.bmp) as icons.
1. HKey_Classes_Root \ Paint.Picture \ DefaultIcon
2. Edit the string named 'Default' to value data of "%1" (without the quotes)
Fixing a Corrupt Registry
If your registry has become corrupted, and re-installing Windows over your existing installation
does not fix the problem,
there is a hidden, read-only, system file on the root of your boot drive called SYSTEM.1ST.
This is the initial system registry created when you first installed Windows. To use this file:
1. In DOS, go to your Windows directory.
2. Strip the attributes of your current SYSTEM.DAT with the following syntax: ATTRIB -r -s -h
SYSTEM.DAT
3. Copy C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.DAT to SYSTEM.BAD as a backup
4. Switch down to the root directory of the drive Windows is installed on.
5. Strip the attributes of SYSTEM.1ST with the following syntax: ATTRIB -r -s -h SYSTEM.1ST
6. Copy SYSTEM.1ST to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.DAT
This is a last minute fix for the Registry. It will not restore any information about your 32-bit apps
thus you will need to reinstall them or any other programs that modified your system registry. 16-bit
apps do not modify the registry so, those should be able to remain in place. To avoid this problem,
you need to backup your registry on a regular basis!
Get Your Folders to Open the Way You Want Every Time
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
2. Modify the string 'NoSaveSettings' to a value of 1


Getting Rid of Schemes
1. Open up Display Control Panel.
2. Switch to the Appearance tab.
3. Determine which schemes you wish to delete.
4. If you wish to delete them all, you should create one as a backup.
5. HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Control Panel \ Appearance \ Schemes
6. Right-click each sheme you wish to delete and click delete. DO NOT DELETE "Default"


Getting Rid of or Editing Startup Tips
1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \
explorer \ Tips
2. You can edit or delete the tips of your choice
Increasing the Modem Timeout
1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / System / CurrentControlSet / Services / Class / Modem /
XXXX / Settings (XXXX = number of your modem)
2. Modify the string 'Inactivity Timeout' to the number of minutes you wish for the modem to wait
on file transfers before timing out.


Internet Explorer's Bitmap Toolbar Background; How to Change it
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Internet Explorer / Toolbar
2. Modify the string 'BackBitmap' to contain the path and filename of the bitmap you wish to use
(must be a bmp)
3. If this string does not exsist, create one.


Modifying Default Desktop Icons
This can be done to many if not all of your default desktop icons
My Computer Icon
1. Search the registry for "My Computer" or "20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D"
(without the quotes)
2. Modify the string 'Default Icon' to contain the path, filename containing the icon you want to use
followed by the icon number (starts at 0)
The above steps should also work for:
Network Neighborhood - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\
CLSID\{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}
InBox - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ CLSID\{00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
Recycle Bin - HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\
CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
Additional icons can be found in:
WINDOWS\MORICONS.DLL
WINDOWS\SYSTEM\PIFMGR.DLL
WINDOWS\SYSTEM\SHELL32.DLL


Modifying Icon Cache Size
The default cache size for icons is set at 512, so when the number of icons exceeds this number, it
uses the page file for storage.
1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Explorer
2. Create a new string named "MaxCacheIcons"
3. Modify this string to contain a value that suits your needs. I've heard of 4000 being used, I don't
think my computer encounters that many icons in one session!

Not Displaying the Network Neighborhood
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft /Windows / Current Version / Policies /
Explorer
2. Create a new DWORD named "NoNetHood" (without the quotes)
3. Modify this new DWORD to a value of 1

Not Saving Settings on Exit
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Windows / Current Version / Policies /
Explorer
2. Create a new DWORD named "NoSaveSettings" (without the quotes)
3. Modify this new DWORD to a value of 1

Opening Explorer from My Computer
By default, double-clicking 'My Computer' gives you a window containing your drives, control
panel, etc. If you would rather have Explorer open when you double-click 'My Computer' do the
following:
1. Search for "My Computer" or "20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D" (without the
quotes)
2. This should bring you to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT / CLSID
3. Expand the key {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
4. Create a new key under the 'Shell' key and name it "Open"
5. Create a new key under 'Open' named "Command"
6. Modify the 'Default' string under command and give it a value of "Explorer.exe" (without the
quotes)
7. If you wish to undo this change, delete the 'Open' key and all of it's contents


Recycle Bin Edits
Modify the context menu of the Recycle Bin
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ CLSID \ {645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} \
ShellFolder
Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:50,01,00,20 ... adds 'Rename' to the menu
Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:60,01,00,20 ... adds 'Delete' to the menu
Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:70,01,00,20 ... adds 'Rename' and 'Delete' to the menu

Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:45,01,00,20 ... copy paste
Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:46,01,00,20 ... cut paste
Bin Value: "Attributes"=hex:47,01,00,20 ... copy cut paste


Removing Items from NEW on the Desktop Context Meun
1. Search for the string 'ShellNew'
2. This should bring you to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
3. For the items you want to remove, simply rename the 'ShellNew' command as renaming it is
safer than deleting
4. Continue searching for the items you want to remove
5. Be sure they all fall under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT


Removing Open, Explore & Find from Start Button
1. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ Directory \ Shell
2. Delete the key 'Find'
3. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ Folder \ Shell
4. Delete the keys 'Explore' and 'Open'

Programs' Control Panel. In order to remove such programs from the list, do the following:
1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion /
Uninstall
2. Delete the keys or strings for programs you do not want to appear in the list
3. This will only delete them from the list, it will not delete the actual programs.

Specifying programs to run every time Windows
We all know that you can place shortcuts to programs in the Startup folder of your Start Menu in
order to have that program start on Windows load. Or place a run=path/filename or
load=path/filename line in your win.ini. However, you may wish for users to not be able to change
whether these programs run or not. Unless they are advanced users you can hide these programs
from them by placing command in the Registry to run the programs on Windows load.
1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Run
OR HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ RunOnce
OR HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \
RunServices
