27 System Time Format Location: HKEY_CURRENT_USERCONTROLPANELINERNATIONAL key value Name: StimeFormat Value: h: mm: SS, HHMM Note: In normal case, Windows uses "23:12" in the taskbar to display time, but You can change this time format by modifying the registry editor. 28 Change Login Background Position: HKEY_USERS.DEFAULTCONTROL Panelsktop Key Value Name: Wallpaper Take Value: Target Background Division File Path
29 Modify Registration Code: HKEY_LOCALMACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSCURRENTVERSION key value name: ProductID Take value: Arbitrary characters
30 Prohibit Automatic running In general, most applications that are automatically run when Windows startup have the following two settings: Add shortcuts in the "Start" program group If you are using this method. Then we only need to remove their shortcuts from the "Start" program group to achieve the purpose of prohibiting them from running automatically. Modifying Windows Registry Database If you have known users such as CD player, you know that when you use these software, an icon will appear on the right side of the taskbar, which sometimes brings inconvenience. In fact, the registration items of these software from the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARMICROSoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun branch. As long as you find the corresponding self-starting program in this branch, in addition, there may be a "SYSEXPLR" subkey under the "Run" primary key. If there is a subkey, you can empty the content, and you can also cancel the procedure starting from starting when Windows starts. So, how do we add a self-starting program in the registry? First find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSCURRENTVERSIONRUN primary key, then establish a key value name "SySExplorer" on the right side of its window, and set it to "Explorer.exe", exit the registry editor, log out of the user to restart the computer, the system will Automatically run the resource manager. In addition, Windows also provides a one-time self-start function. Keep up with a "run" and "runonceeex" subkey behind the "run" primary key, you can set the new key value in these two sub-keys, allow the system to run a program, that is, only starting Windows next time Talented 31 software display garbled solution is to find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCURRENTCONTROLSETCAL_MACHINSYSTEMCASSOCIATED CHARSET location in the registry, and "Symbol (02)" key value (which is the system's machine "code) is changed to" NO ".
32 Delete Software Wreckwrecks The user of each Windows operating system may have such experiences. Since the cause is directly removed in the hard disk, or in the "Add / Remove Programs" installation. However, some procedures have registration information to stay in the registration table, when you renew the program again, always prompted "Attempt to delete XXXXXX error, abandon the uninstallation", resulting in uninstaller errors . When a large amount of software is installed in the machine, the garbage is formed in the system's registry, which affects the running speed of the machine. The following describes how to thoroughly remove these garbage. Use the Registry Editor to clear the registry related key value data HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWINDOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSoftWindowsCurrentVersionUnInStall location, the general software has "DisplayName", "uninstallstring" in the reverse mounting sub-key in the registry, One display is the name of the software, the second display is some information about the reverse installation. After double-click the second key value, you will understand what is going on. The anti-installation is actually the software you have installed with a counter-installer. When installing the software, it will record some installation information storage. In the install.log file, use this anti-installer to bring the parameters of the .log file when uninstalling .log file. In addition, some software is used in reverse installations that the system provides the anti-installation procedure provided. For example, many applications will still leave some useless information within the registry file after uninstall. The more concentrated place in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE, HKEY_CURRENT_USERSERSOFTWARE and HKEY_USERS.DEFAULT SOFTWARE. The contents of these items are basically consistent, and they are found in one of them. The more common method is to enter the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE branch, then focus on the residual information of the software that has been confident that is securely uninstalled, and deletes after confirming. 33 Recovery CD Key If you accidentally lose Windows's CDKEY, worry what hassle will be encountered when you need to install the system in the future. How can I find it back? You can find this cdkey from the NT registry. Open the registry, then find the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSNTCURRENTVERSION" location, in the line of the ProductID key value, contains the cdkey information, and if the NT you are using is an OEM version, it is possible that the string value of the entire ProductID is CDKey. !
34 Join the login information This feature needs to modify the NT registry, so please be careful and backed up. First find the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSNTCURRENTVERSIONWINLOGON sub-key in the registry, then find "LegalNoticeCaption" and "LegalNoticeText" two key values on the right side of the window. If not, add these two key values. Then enter "This is my server" in these two key values, "Welcome!". Turn off the registry, restart the machine, this time you see a new window before you log in, you will include the two information you entered above.
35 Prevent illegal intrusion introduces how to prevent local users from invading the Windows NT system, but how to prevent remote users? Of course, the general approach is to limit its access to files when the user dialing into the system (or through a local area network), to achieve the purpose of the file to achieve the purpose of the protection file. But after all, this level of security is not high enough, how can these users lock outside the system to achieve an absolute security? NT Create a default share for the drive and system catalog, to enable system administrators, backup programs, and other authorized users and service work to smooth access to other personal users. These shared objects do not appear when other users access your system. However, any remote user only knows the exact name of these shared objects and has access to the right, he can establish a connection with these shared objects. Unfortunately, the security mechanism of the NT system is very fragile. Although the introduction of SecurityPack5 has provided some filling measures for old users to the administrator level, and there are some NT safety inspection methods, but there will still be other vulnerabilities. So if your computer is on the LAN or through the MODEM connection, you can protect the data by canceling the sharing of these components. In order to achieve this, open the NT registry editor. In the Registry Editor, locate the current directory in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCURRENTCONTROLSetServicesLanManagerServerParameters, if there is no autosharewks key value name, then you will create a new one; then double-click it and enter "3D0", the last order "OK" button, close the registry editor ,Then restart the computer. 36 ICQ has a "vulnerability" ICQ is a network software produced by a company called Mirabilis, Israel, which provides real-time information transfer services for users on the Internet. With it, you can exchange information with friends outside the thousands of miles, but also in the case of the other party "call" he (she) on the line, it is no wonder that the majority of netizens are kind to "network pager". However, do you know that there is a "vulnerability" in the ICQ for Windows version. ICQ has a key value in the Windows Registry is called "Auto Update". If the key value is set to "YES", then when logging in to the server, some important information in your computer will be sent to the logged in server. This information includes: the operating system type, version, serial number, user registration name, company name, browser version used by the company. The transmission of these important information may be used by hackers or some other people, bringing you unnecessary trouble. To avoid this problem, you can use the modified registry to turn off the "Auto Update" feature of the ICQ. First, find the HKEY_CURRENT_USERSERSOFTWAREMIRABILISICQDEFAULTPREFS position in the registry and find the "Auto Update" key value on the right side; "Auto Update" key value is modified to "NO" by "Yes". For your system's stability, please note that you want to modify the ICQ application when you modify it. After the modification is complete, restart your computer.
37 Increasing Executive File Path If the program you need to run is not in the specified directory, the DOS system generally uses the way to set the path in the auto-batch file to automatically find the purpose of this program; in Windows, you can add programs more secretly. The path, not by setting the automatic batch, this needs to achieve the above objects by modifying the registry. For example, add the path to the "C: ProgramFilespdocpdoc.exe" file. First open the registry, and then find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppPaths location in the right window, create a file called "pdoc.exe" primary key, select the primary key, its default value is set to "C: ProgramFilespdocpdoc.exe"; then create a new named "Path "The primary key, set it to" C: ProgramFileSpdoc ". This can run the program by typing "PDoc.exe" or "PDOC" in the "Run" command line. In addition, you can set new primary keys for existing programs, such as the primary key that can add name "Word.exe" for MicrosoftWord 97. Suppose Word 97 is installed in the "C: ProgramFilesmicrosoftOfficeOffice" directory: Open the registry, select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSCURRENTVERSIONAPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPMOFTOFTOWTED" Word.exe "primary key to select the primary key. To set its default value to "C: ProgramFileSmicrosoftOfficeOfficeWINWORD.EXE", the method of establishing a directory is the same as the above example. 38 Changing System Installation Directory If you use a disc installed Windows, when you add new hardware, you will remind you to insert the Win 98 disc in the CD-ROM drive when you add new hardware, and you have to do so every time it is too much. You can copy all the "* .cab" files in the WIN 98 installation dish to a directory of the hard disk, such as "D: BackupWin98", then run the Registry Editor, in the "My Computer" folder Select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE", "Software", "Microsoft", "Windows", "CurrentVersion", "SETUP", change the value of the "SourcePath" primary key to "D: Backupwin98", restart the computer. If there is a file server on the network, assume the WIN98 installation disk backup in the "D: BackupWin98" directory, the file server's machine name is "MMX233", and the D disk is shared "Diskd", then "SourcePath" primary key value For "MMX233DiskDBackupWin98", logout users or restart Windows.
39 Returning the hierarchical review password in IE first finds the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWS CURRENTVERSIONPOLICRICROSOFTWINDOWS CURRENTVERSIONPOLICRICROFTWINGS CURRENTVERSIONPOLICRICROSOFTWINDOWSOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWSOFTWAREMICROSOFTWINDOWS CURRENTVERSIONPOLICROSOFTWINDOWS CURRENTVERSIONPOLICRATISRATISRATINGS, where the password in the "Level Review" in the "Content" option page of the IE, this password is passed Encrypted, in the figure below, you can see that there are two key values of the password, and the binary "Key" key value is the secret, the way to remove the password is the two keys under the subkey Value Delete, if there is no password, this subkey is keys. Enter IE next time, you can safely enter the hierarchical review, and you can directly skip the input "old password" and join the password directly.
40 Settings Chinese WINDOWS If you have an English game, Chinese, such as Quake. The Chinese characters in Chinese Windows can be handled in English. For example, each Chinese is used as two characters to handle it, deleting a Chinese word also need to press two down to remove keys, and every time, there will be half of the Chinese characters to throw half of the strange phenomenon. If you encounter such a situation, don't worry about reinstall Windwos, you can also try the way below. First, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetcontrolNlsLocale registered location, the original "00000804" to the default "00000409" (the default language used by the system) .41 change the IE title bar text first found in the registry below position HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftInternet ExplorerMain, Then create a string value, named Window Title (note that there is a space in the middle of the two words).
42 How to delete an extra DLL file There are a lot of DLL files in the Win98 System subdirectory, which may be shared by the system or application. However, due to frequent installation and uninstall software, some DLL junk files will be left in the System directory. They not only occupy the hard disk space, but also reduce the running speed of the system. The steps to delete them are as follows: 1. Run "regedit" to open the Registry Editor. 2. Open the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMICROFTWINDOWSCURRENTVERSIONSHAREDDLLS branch. The SharedDlls subkey is recorded by the DLL information shared by the program, and the key value of each DLL file means that it has been shared by several applications. If the binary key is "00 00 00 00", it indicates that it is not shared by any program. (Also "0x00000001 (1)" is a hexadecimal representation) 3. The corresponding file is removed in the System directory.
43 Remove the desktop shortcut The small arrow will automatically create a shortcut to the program on the desktop during the installation process of some programs, which is convenient for our use. But that small arrow is not very good. We can use the modified registry to remove it. First of all, pay attention to this type of shortcut, generally tells more .Lnk, there are some .pif (pointing to the shortcut to the MS-DOS program). The specific steps are as follows: 1. Run the Registry Editor, open the HKEY_CLASSES_ROTLNKFILE branch. 2. In the LNKFile subkey, find a key value named "Isshortcut", which means a small arrow will appear on the desktop .lnk shortcut icon. Right-click "Isshortcut", then select "Delete" from the pop-up menu, remove the key value. 3. Close the Registry Editor, restart Win98, you can find that there is no small arrow on the shortcut icon. Similarly, a small arrow on the shortcut (ie .pif) icon to the MS-DOS program, except that the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTPIFFILE branch is opened, the rest is the same.
