To disable the ToolTips that are displayed when you move the mouse pointer over the Minimize, Maximize or Close buttons, use Registry Editor to modify the "UserPreferencemask" value in the following key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\desktop

Make note of the value. (For example: ae 00 00 00)

Double-click the UserPreferencemask entry. Under Value Data, the cursor is in front of the first value (for example from above: ae). For the first number or letter, see below for the correct value to use in the next step (the second number/letter remain the same):

  If first is "8", use "0" (number 0)

  If first is "9", use "1"

  If first is "a", use "2"

  If first is "b", use "3"

  If first is "c", use "4"

  If first is "d", use "5"

  If first is "e", use "6"

Type in the correct first number, and then type the second number/letter. The original first value is moved to the right. Press delete to remove the original value.

NOTE: The original value must be deleted.

For example: "ae 00 00 00"  would now be  "2e 00 00 00"

Restart your computer.

NOTE: If Profiles are enabled, the "UserPreferencemask" value for the .Default user may also need to changed. The key containing this is:

HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\desktop

Have fun!

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then press ENTER.

2. Navigate to the following subkey:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

3. Right-click the right pane, create a new DWORD value, and then name it EnableBalloonTips.

4. Double-click this new entry, and then give it a hexadecimal value of 0.

5. Quit Registry Editor. Log off Windows, and then log back on.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
