In doing this only constraint that you should make sure exists is that HungAppTimeout is greater than WaitToKillAppTimeout.

CLICK Start>Run, type REGEDIT and click OK to open up the registry editor and make your way to this key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT->*->shellex->ContextMenuHandlers Right click the ContextMenuHandlers key and choose New>Key. Name the new key “Copy To” (without the quotes). Repeat the above and create another new key named Move To. You should now have two new subkeys under the ContextMenuHandlers key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT->*->shellex->ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT->*->shellex->ContextMenuHandlers\Move To Select the Copy To key and in the right hand pane, double click “Default” Enter this clsid value as the value data: {C2FBB630-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13} Next , select the Move To key and in the right hand pane set the default value to: {C2FBB631-2971-11d1-A18C-00C04FD75D13} This now takes care of the Copy and Move options for the right click context menu of all your files.

Now when you right click on a file or folder, you should see two new options: Copy to Folder and Move to Folder xp registry 2 &Easy Text Size Change in Help & IE Tip: I mentioned a way that you can change the size of the text that is display in the Help file and in Internet Explorer. As it turns out if you have a "wheel mouse," there is an even easier way to change the text size. In Internet Explorer or when viewing a Help file, simply hold the ctrl key while you spin the mouse wheel up to increase text size, or down to decrease text size. Java VM: Java applets run in Internet Explorer 6 (a component of Windows XP) just as they run in older versions of Internet

  • Scheduling, Thread Context, and IRQL
    Scheduling, Thread Context, and IRQL December 31, 2020 Abstract This paper presents information about how thread scheduling, thread context, and a processor’s current interrupt request level (IRQL) affect the operation of kernel- mode drivers for the Microsoft® Windows® family of operating systems. It is intended to provide driver writers with a greater understanding of the environment in which their code runs. A companion paper, “Locks, Deadlocks, and Synchronization” at http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hwdev/driver/LOCKS.mspx, builds on these fundamental concepts to address synchronization issues in drivers.

Windows® Registry Data Set It is possible to compile a historical list of applications based on RDS metadata and residue files. Many methods can be used to remove application files, but these may not purge the Registry. Examining the Registry for residue can augment a historical list of applications or provide additional context about system use.
