Ken,
Totally disagree & how are they fixes?
Remember that some keys change when they are on SP3 from SP2. That means
if that particular key was sone in SP3 it may not work with SP3. Then look
to see that you may only need 1 registry value in her exported reg files
but there maybe another 9 which are specifically for her machine. So, now
you are importing junk/clutter into another registry. If Kelly was any
good she'd go through the entries & remove that junk but the thing is, she
isn't good enough to know so leaves all the rubbish in them. Just
right-click | edit some of the keys to see what I mean. Have been registry
hacking/registry programming 5 or more days of the week since 1997 so I
have some knowledge of what I am talking about
Maybe some work, but the clutter doesn't? What if there is a write-only
registry key permission, how is Kelly's junk keys going to help? All you
MVP's will do is say look at line ... on Key's site because you've done a
Google search on her static website
Let's have a look at that Taskbar program she wrote: It does a few
registry key changes. The application isn't signed so why would you trust
it? If you see the junk you enter into your registry running her tweaks
then then why would you want to import the same rubbish using that poor
application she wrote?
You are better off seeing if you can find the tweat on the PCTOOLS
registry site. At least it have trusted content because they have gone
through policy settings etc for the correct entries. There is also the
resource kit on Microsoft that has every key explained with most
entries...
