Classic start menu |
|
|
Hello everybody,
i want to use the windows classic start menu with my XPe build and did not
find
a property to realize this. I know, that modifing the registry value
ShellState under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
would do the job.
So, does anybody know the component which contains this key? Or is there a
better way to change the start menu setting?
Thank you in advance for your help. |

Daniel,
There is no component in XPE database that holds the ShellState reg.value. You will have to set the value manually in your component
or in TD Extra Registry Data.
In future, you may want to use DependencyExplorer component filtering feature (XPeTools package on www.xpefiles.com, Development
Utilities, Main folder). It will allow you to search through XPe database for components containing reg.values, reg.keys, files,
etc.
You probably know this already but ... You have to tweak the 32th byte from 2 to 0 of the ShellState value or something like that.
The easier may be to grab the value from XP Pro machine. But you have to change the ShellSate value under
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]. Please note the HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but not the Local Machine
key you mentioned below.
Although, there is definitely much easier way to switch to Classic Menu style. Just set the following value:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSimpleStartMenu"=dword:00000001
