Windows XP - Secrets
Deleting System Softwares:
XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger,
but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything. Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text
file /windows/inf/ sysoc.inf, search for the word 'hide' and remove it. You can then go to
the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows
Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable.
==================================================
=================
Creating Shutdown Icon or One cl!ck Shutdown:
Navigate to your desktop. On the desktop, right-cl!ck and go to New, then to Shortcut (in
other words, create a new shortcut). You should now see a pop-up window instructing you
to enter a command line path.
Use this path in "Type Location of the Item"
SHUTDOWN -s -t 01
If the C: drive is not your local hard drive, then replace "C" with the correct letter of the
hard drive. cl!ck the "Next" button. Name the shortcut and cl!ck the "Finish" button. Now
whenever you want to shut down, just cl!ck on this shortcut and you're done.
==================================================
=================
Increasing Band-Width By 20%:
Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows
Updates and interrogating your PC etc
To get it back:
cl!ck Start then Run and type " gpedit.msc" without quotes.This opens the group policy
editor. Then go to:
Local Computer Policy then Computer Configuration then Administrative Templates then
Network then QOS Packet Scheduler and then to Limit Reservable Bandwidth.
Double cl!ck on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is
under the 'Explain' tab i.e."By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20
percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the
default."
So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the
system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.It works on Win 2000 as well.
==================================================
=================
Renaming The Recycle Bin icon:
To change the name of the Recycle Bin desktop icon, cl!ck Start then goto Run, writeRegedit and press Enter. It opens Registry Editor. Now in Registry Editor go to:
HKEY_CLASSES_ ROOT/CLSID/ {645FF040- 5081-101B- 9F08-00AA002F954 E}
and change the name "Recycle Bin" to whatever you want (don't type any quotes).
Managing Tasks:
You can at last get rid of tasks on the computer from the command line by using 'taskkill
/pid' and the task number, or just 'tskill' and the process number. Find that out by typing
'tasklist', which will also tell you a lot about what's going on in your system.
==================================================
=================

Improving the Slow Boot up time:

Start then Run and enter MSCONFIG and go to the Startup tab. Deselect/UnCheck
application( s) that you do not want to startup at boot time.
