Windows linux Software Super Tips

1. Click the right button on a blank area of the task bar
2. Select Properties
3. Select Autohide
4. Click OK

This will make the task bar slide off the screen when the cursor moves away from it,
and it will slide back on when the cursor is moved near it again.

The same can be done for the MS Office task bar. The "sliding" effect is nice, and can free up some desktop space

To add an option to the Right-Click of the Start button:

1. Go to Control Panel, View, Options
2. Click on the File Types Tab
3. Scroll down until you see File Folder
4. Click on Edit
5. Click on New
6. Type in the Name you want to in the Action box
7. Type in the Application you want to use

A good option to add is an MS-DOS Prompt:

Try this c:\command.com /k cd %1
It also puts the shortcut on a regular folder.
This command will open a DOS window with that folder as the current directory.

• I have recently found that if you want to send something from A: drive or from any where to any drive, you can just make a short cut of that drive in subdirectory SENDTO.
• For example I have two hard drives, a Floppy Drive, and a CDROM
• After I have make a copy of each of my drive I will be able to send a whole directory of E:\XXX from the CDROM drive to A: drive or any other drive that i have had made the short c t in the SENDTO subdir of WINDOWS.

1. Download Microangelo and install it.
2. Create a blank.ico file.
3. Put it in a directory (C:\Windows. Then double click on the Microangelo Engineer to run it.
4. When you get it up on the screen click on the "start" tab. You will see a list of all the icons in the start menu.
5. Highlight the first one (programs) and select "Change". It will bring up a dialog box - select "browse".
6. Go to the directory that contains the blank icon and select it. Hit OK until you get back to the main
7. Engineer window and do all the rest exactly the same way.
8. When you have finished changing them all to the blank icon, Hit "Apply".
9. Hit your start button and look to see if all the icons are invisible. (They should be.)
10. Close out Micro Engineer and you're finished.

1. Start Regedit
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ explorer \ Desktop \ NameSpace
3. Below that should be a few keys
4. Rename the key {00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}. I usually put another character before or after the curly braces.
5. Restart Windows and the InBox icon should be gone
6. You can do the same for any other items you don't to show such as the Recycle Bin or The Internet icons
