How to reapply my XP tweaks to new system?

[George]

This should be a common problem.

When I use a new computer, I apply a bunch of tweaks and modifications
(via TweakUI and the GUI). But I have to change computers often and
this gets tiresome.

I know there are a bunch of tweak utilities out there, but I'm looking
for something that will help me to manage a set of my tweaks (these are
fairly constant) and then quickly and easily apply them to any new
computer I use.

Any suggestions?

Find out the entries in the registry for all your tweaks, create a registry
file, apply that to the machine.

Find out the entries in the registry for all your tweaks, create a registry
file, apply that to the machine.

The last part of that - "create a registry file, apply that to the
machine" - is good, but the first part is a problem. How do I find the
entry for all the changes I'm talking about? I guess I need something
that rips through the system part of the reg and finds all non-standard
stuff.

Or, run a registry monitor, and make my changes again. Then I can use
the output from the registry monitor to create my reg file!

You could do that - or you could use Google..

Sites like:
http://winguides.com/registry/

have tons of registry entries - some you may not have even known about.

Sites like:
http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/page/list/registry/SESSID=d92f763bf2369ebcc1e414fae8c82a21/

Allow you to create registry tweak files straight off the site.
