Disable The Desktop Cleanup Wizard

Disable The Desktop Cleanup Wizard
By default the Desktop Cleanup Wizard runs every 60 days to clean up  unused  shortcuts  and  other  desktop  items.  Do  you  need  this over-friendly tool? At any rate, you don't want it to run automatically.

Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Explorer\Desktop\CleanupWiz

Modify the DWORD Value called NoRun to 0, or to 1 to bring back the poor Wizard if you begin to pity it.

Automatic Windows Refresh

Automatic Window Refresh
Normally,  there  is  a  small  delay  after  some  information  changes before  it  reflects  in  the  GUI.  If  you  need  to  see  the  information right away, you would need to press [F5]. The following will enable
the system to do faster updates.

Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update

For    faster    updates,    change    the    DWORD    value    called UpdateMode to 0. The default is 1.

A reboot will be required for the changes to take effect. Note that there is a likelihood of conflict if this setting is applied with system policies running: the UpdateMode value is used by system policies  to  Disable,  Automatically  or  Manually  check  for  a  connection to the NETLOGON share of a domain controller. Change it  back  to  the  default  if  you  are  running  system  policies  or  are connected to a domain controller.



Copy following code(in italic & red) & paste in notepad


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update]
"UpdateMode"=dword:00000000


save it as
filename->autorefresh.reg
filetype->all files

then double click on that!!!!!

DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Background & structure of Registry

SomeBackground


The Registry has to be one of the least understood aspects of the Windows  operating  system  family.  Even  seasoned  professionals approach it with a degree of caution, knowing that a wrong entry can  potentially  wreak  havoc  on  the  system.  To  understand  the Registry  is  to  get  to  the  heart  of  controlling  and modifying  your Windows  system.  With  a  detailed  understanding  of  what  you  are doing, you can turn your machine into a lean performance machine, customise   and   personalise   its   appearance,   and   get   fine-grained control over nearly every aspect of how Windows XP behaves.



The Structure And Working Of The Registry

HKEY_LCASSES_ROOT contains all the information related to the fundamental aspects of the windows user interface, file association mapping for drag & drop functionality, shortcuts, & OLE(Object Linking & Embedding) information.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER contains all the information related to the current user logged into the system includung such things as Desktop setting, logon names, & other user specific information.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE contains all the information regarding to the hardware, software, & other PC-specific preferences that are common to all the users who log into the machine

HKEY_USERS contains all the information related to specific preferences of individual users, who are each identified by a unique security identifier called SID. This SID is unique for life of system.

HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG contains all the information gatherd when the computer boots up, & is coppied & merged in from portions of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES relevand to the current hardware profile. This information is not stored: it is regenrated every time the computer starts up.


Value Types
there are 3 major types: DWORD, Binary, String.

REG_DWORD is ussually used for boolean values & is a 4-byte number.UpdateMode have a setting of either 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled).

REG_BINARYis used to store the information as raw binary data, & is usually used for hardware components.

REG_SZ is the standard string for to display human readable text.

REG_EXPAND_SZ is an expandable data string that permits storing of variables that can be replaced by actual values by the application called key.


Creating & Using .Reg files
The .reg file is actually a text file which will open in any editor like notepad. It uses specific syntax that the registry recognizes. Following the rules of syntax you can creat .reg files


RegistryEditorVersion
blank line
[RegistryPath1]
"DataItemName1"="DataType1:DataValue1"
"DataItemName2"="DataType2:DataValue2"

Free Alternatives to Microsoft office

Alternatives to Microsoft office

Over the years, Microsoft Office has become the most preferred and advanced office suite. However the high price tags attached to legal and licensed copies of Microsoft Office can become a burden in the long run.

Fear no more, we recently figured lots of alternative office suites. They not maybe as comprehensive as Microsoft Office, but they still manage to get the work done. Here are my 6 alternative office suite picks.

1. Google Docs - Google Docs is probably your best bet against the monopoly of Microsoft office. Assuming you a decent internet connection, Google Docs includes a web-based Word Processor, Spreadsheet application, and a Presentation app. Best of all its free.

2. Zoho- Zoho is another great online office productivity suite. It features a word processor, spreadsheet and presentation apps, but also includes online project management,CRM Solutions, web conferencing, online database with reports, online planner, group chat, wiki, and lots more. Every things online!Only thing you need is a decent connection.

3. OpenOffice - OpenOffice.org is a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database management. It is available for many different platforms, including   Microsoft Windows, Unix-like systems with the X Window System including GNU/Linux, BSD, Solaris and Mac OS X.

4. Thinkfree - ThinkFree Office is another application suite comprised of word processing, spreadsheet, and presentation graphics software-all usable online and off. Thinkfree also has advanced collaboration features such that users can share, edit, and contribute their ideas remotely.

5. StarOffice - StarOffice 8 is a full-featured office suite that contains a word processor, a spreadsheet tool, applications for presentations, databases, math formulas and drawing. It has support for most Microsoft Office formats (except for the formats introduced in Office 2007), but it can also export documents as PDF out of the box. The software normally costs $70, but it’s available for free in Google Pack.

6. Ajax Write : ajaxWrite is a web-based word processor that can read and write Microsoft Word and other standard document formats. Simply point your fav browser to ajaxwrite.com and in seconds a full-featured program will be available for you to open, edit, print and save. Best part its free.
