Re: BagMRU or Bag MRU ? (TweakUI or Kelly's corner?)

Thanks Doug & Kelly

I have used both your programs in the past I would trust
these. When I stated I would not trust an exe on the web
I was refering to the hacked TweakUI that was being
distributed in the tweakXP thread on this subject. I
wouldn't trust a hacked version of TweakUI, only one from
Microsoft.

I hope Kelly can post a reply from Microsoft soon, I have
used the reg file from Kelly's corner ( I took out the
group policy objects lines as I asumme these are for XP
Pro and I am using XP Home ed.)

Although this deleted the existing bags which is OK by me
as they were in a mess from trying to sort this out I
still had some folder settings preserved which has me
puzzled where this info is located in the registry. But
after applying Kelly's reg file the folder settings I
have adjusted since are remembered OK.

I am not sure where the settings for some of the existing
folders were presevered, e.g I have a "my sounds" folder
that retained the music file settings even after deleting
the bags as per Kelly's reg file.

Hi David,

It should read:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
ShellNoRoam
"BagMRU Size"=dword:00001f40

I have written Raymond Chen (creator of TweakUI). Will post his comments
here.

I am keen to increase the number of folders that XP saves
the folder config for.

I have found TweakUI 2.10 has the option to do this and I
have found several refs to the BagMRU settingon the web
e.g. Kelly's corner has a reg file to do this.

Alas I am confused, TweakUI creates a key called Bag MRU
(with a space) and the refs on the web including the reg
file at Kelly's Corner create the key called BagMRU
without a space.

Which is the correct name for this key? Anybody have the
definitive answer please?

Thanks
