I've been looking for some time for a way to remove IE functionality ...

If I can get this working I'll be extremely happy ...

I'm trying to run the reg file with regedit in Windows 98 but I get the following error:

"Cannot import C:\HIDEME~1.REG: The specified file is not a registry script. You can

import only registry files."

I'm a reg noob so any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I have a feeling this is just for XP.

Open it up in Win98 with an editor that can read Unicode format.

Copy and paste into Win98 notepad and save as ANSI format.

Change 'Windows Registry Editor 5.00' or whatever it says on the first line to 'REGEDIT4'

The error returned was:

Sorry, some required files are missing, if you intended to view a topic, it's possible that it's been moved or deleted. Please go back and try again.

:no:

'hide menu_hide addressbar' worked for me last time. link empty now. 'hide menubar' keeps address bar open even if unchecked. hmmmm. reformatted and lost so if someone has former regfix a repost would be greatly appreciated. tia :)

I couldn't edit my previous post, I guess there is a time cut-off.

I managed to do it, by testing around with values and comparing it with other versions. I made two simple .reg patches - one to install, one to uninstall and turn everything back to windows defaults. If you have changed it in any way prior to installing this patch, back up the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\ShellBrowser

If you want address bar only in explorer, download the compressed file below. :)

addressbar_only.zip

right click the toolbar > uncheck "standard buttons."

If I do that, the menu just comes back. I believe it is possible to get it done with resource hacker and file replacement, but if it would feel so much safer to do it with a registry entry instead.

    • Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
    • Thanks for the tip. I am giving it a try. Initial quick impression: I like it.
    • Welcome to Neowin. Enjoy your time here!
