irs-away Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 how is EVERYONE making their icons 128x128 on the desktop and toolbars. even when i set the icons to large on the taskbar or in display properties, the largest it will set to icon size is 72x72. when i set it large to say 128x129, it goes back to 72x72.

To get above 72 x 72, open regedit, go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USERControlPanelDesktopWindowMetrics Go to key: Shell Icons Size and change it to whatever size you want. To create a shortcut to lock your computer, make a new shortcut and put this in it: %windir%System32rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irs-away Posted February 4, 2002 Share Posted February 4, 2002 i have yet to try that regedit tweak, being very familiar with regedit in fact. i made my own tweak: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;prints a directory list to a text file [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryshellListCommand] @="command.com /c dir "%1"> c:Dirlist.txt" ;prints a directory list to your printer [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryshellPrintCommand] @="command.com /c dir "%1"> Prn" ;prints a directory tree to your printer [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryshellPrint TreeCommand] @="command.com /c dir /-v /a:d /s "%1"> Prn" ;right click, register .dll's with regsvr32 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTdllfileShellRegisterCommand] @="C:WINDOWSSYSTEMRegsvr32.exe "%1"" ;right click, unregister .dll's with regsvr32 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTdllfileShellUnregisterCommand] @="C:WINDOWSSYSTEMRegsvr32.exe /u "%1"" ;right click, register .ocx's with regsvr32 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTocxfileShellRegisterCommand] @="C:WINDOWSSYSTEMRegsvr32.exe "%1"" ;right click, unregister .ocx's with regsvr32 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTocxfileShellUnregisterCommand] @="C:WINDOWSSYSTEMRegsvr32.exe /u "%1"" ;display thumbnail images of bitmaps instead of the paint icon [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTPaint.PictureDefaultIcon] @="%1" ;automatically end tasks when not responding, cleartype on the login menu, smoothscroll menu's tweak [HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktop] "AutoEndTasks"="0" "FontSmoothing"="2" "FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000002 "SmoothScroll"=dword:00000001 ;add colored backgrounds to outlook express [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftInternet Mail and News] "ColorCycle"=dword:00000001 ;enable the dvd gui in windows media player [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftMediaPlayerPlayerSettings] "EnableDVDUI"="yes" ;seperate process for the desktop part of explorer [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorer] "DesktopProcess"=dword:00000001 ;seperate process's of explorer and systray and so on so if one crashes, it doesn't take the other down [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanced] "SeparateProcess"=dword:00000001 ;increase connections in internet explorer so if you could onyl get 2 files off a server at one time, now you can get a max of 20 [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet Settings] "MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000014 "MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:00000014 ;always unload dll's that an app used onced it's closed [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAlwaysUnloadDLL] @="1" ;enable hidden tabs and options in 23.xx and up nvidia drivers [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARENVIDIA CorporationGlobalNVTweak] "CoolBits"=dword:ffffffff "NvCplEnableRotatePage"=dword:00000001 ;set limit reservable bandwidth of the qos packet schedular to 0% [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsPsched] "NonBestEffortLimit"=dword:00000000 ;clear page file at shutdown for icnreased security, load page file into ram, increase system cache for faster performance in windows (for servers), increase second level data cache to 256k for a 256 l2 processor, increase io page lock limit for added performance.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlUpdate] "UpdateMode"=dword:00000000 ;i don't remember, makes network speed increase [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesDnscacheParameters] "CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001 "CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180 "MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000fa00 "MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012d ;enable hidden feature in win2k/xp to bsod on a certain keystroke which is nearly impossible to hit on accident. useful for troubleshooting, increase ps2 mouse port speed [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesi8042prtParameters] "CrashOnCtrlScroll"=dword:00000001 "SampleRate"=dword:000000c8 ;again, i don't remember, but it makes networking speed increase [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesLanmanWorkstationParameters] "MaxCmds"=dword:00000064 "MaxThreads"=dword:00000064 ;again, enable hidden nvidia tabs and options in nvidia drivers [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesnvDevice0] "NvCplEnableHardwarePage"=hex:01,00,00,00 "NvCplCpqConfiguration"=hex:01,00,00,00 "NvCplEnablenForcePage"=hex:01,00,00,00 ;blah, one last time, increase network speed. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesTcpipParameters] "EnableICMPRedirect"=dword:00000000 anyway, why would anyone want to use true launch bar. when the start menu is 1 click more? not even a click, but one mouse move more. seems pointless. you can already customize the start menu too. but hey, whatever floats your boat. and since this particular forum is about screenshots, check this one out: it's nto mine, but i think it's the most original piece of work i've seen in awhile.
