Webview *Argh*


Recommended Posts

Windows Explorer - Tools - Folder Options.

There's two options :

Show common tasks in folders (Default)

Use Windows classic folders

I'm trying to make the default Classic folders but for the love of God it won't stick.

Here's the code I use in cmdlines.txt : (Everything else in my .reg file is working properly)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"WebView"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\WebView]
"DefaultApplied"=dword:00000000

When I check the Explorer\Advanced registry key after install Webview = 1.

Any ideas why it wont stick?

I know. The code I posted is part of a reg file that is called from cmdlines. I know the call is successful because other keys in the same files get added correctly.

One thing I haven't mentionned is I'm using a French version of windows.

Looks good, but wouldn't you need to place this in HKEY_DEFAULT_USER? At t-12, when cmdlines.txt is processed, there are no accounts to apply this to except the administrator account...

correct me if I'm wrong guys...

I found the solution to my problem. To the above 2 lines of code you have to add a 3rd one :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects\WebView]
"DefaultValue"=dword:00000000

Now it's working!
