Can Not Find Setting Vista Registry

Jul 29, 2009

My company has a fax shared on one of the 2003 servers. When I print to this fax server in Windows XP the Fax Wizard walks me thru all the necesarry screens and remembers my Delivery Notification settings, i.e. whether I want a notification, the email address I want the notification sent to and the attach a copy of the fax to the notification.

All of these settings I can find in the XP Registry at HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftFaxUserInfoReceiptEMail(dword), ReceiptAttachFax(dword) and ReceiptAddress(string). However, I cannot find these same settings in Vista Registry. I can set these each time I send a fax in Vista under ToolsOptions, but it is a pain to have to set these everytime I send a fax in Vista. Where can I find the equivalent Vista Registry values?

Registry: Cannot Find One For Vista, Activate The Backup

May 8, 2008

There is a link for activities on the Registry for XP and previous Windows, but I cannot find one for Vista. Will someone (with more knowhow than I) please advise me either what is the link, or tell me how to make a backup of the Registry. If I make a backup and then whilst removing unwanted files make a mistake, how do I activate the Backup? Will the activation of backup also restore the removed files?

Chaning Setting Control Pannel, Power Setting : Registry Resets Not

Jun 22, 2008

It has happened occasionally, but with no predictability that I can see. I change settings in control pannel / power settings / balanced to 10 min for monitor and never for computer. I check the "advanced settings" to assure that they are the same. I use balanced because that seems to be the default in the registry. I do not see the actual settings in the registry. Every so often Vista resets the settings back to 20 min for the monitor. I have looked at but it speaks of "System Settings page" - I don't know what that is. In any case, my settings have no effect and I can't get the monitor to dependably go to standby after 10 minutes.

ReReading Windows Registry Setting

Sep 1, 2009

I am trying to write a script to add a few items like: "Connect to" to the Start Menu. This seems pretty easy by changing values in the registry and setting [HKEY_CURRENT_USER SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanced]"Start_ShowNetConn"=dword:00000001 works to turn "Connect To" on after the next reboot. Is there a command to force Windows to re-look at the registry after setting this value, so that the change becomes effective without having to reboot the computer.

Easily Find Registry Locations In Windows

May 27, 2008

Just wanted to pass along a nice little tweaked program for making the registry a lot easier to use. Even with Windows Vista, the basic registry editor has not changed - and one *sorely* missing feature is an 'address bar' of sorts, allowing you easy navigation through the registry. Ever read a tutorial, like Copy as Path - Add or Remove from Context Menu and wished you could easily open that registry key without having to navigate through the tree on the left and find each individual hive / key?

Well, with RegEditX - Tweaks for the Windows Registry Editor (REGEDIT) you can - quickly, easily, and painlessly. See, RegEditX has that missing address bar - so, if you want to go to the key mentioned in the tutorial I linked above, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellxContextMenuHandlersCopyAsPathMenu, you simply copy the entire thing, paste it in the address bar in RegEditX, and presto! If you have need to use the registry a lot, or are like me, like to add system tweaks by hand, then this is a must have program for you. *WARNING* - Editing the registry can result in your computer being rendered unusable. You assume all risks if you decide to edit anything in the registry. I assume no liability in providing you with this link. As always, be sure to make backups prior to changing anything.

Find Text File, But Vista Won't Find It

Mar 23, 2008

I have a simple text file with a certain word in it. I try to find this text file, but vista won't find it. Windows 2000, linked by network, finds it within a second.
I have tried all available options.

"include non-indexed"
"always search file names and contents"
"find partial matches"
"include subfolders"
etc
etc

It just doesn't work. Why is there not a simple search function that actually works like in windows2000? I am using Vista Ultimate 64 bit. But not having a working search function doesn't look that "ultimate" to me.

Will XP's Registry Entries Work With Vista?

Mar 26, 2008

I am getting ready to install Vista Home Premium with an SP1 disc included. I have XP Pro now. I know I would have to reformat since it won't do the over install with the versions I'm working with. I'm fine with that. I have a dual HD laptop. I will take out my C drive with XP and put another identical one in to install Vista on. I have reformatted many times. There are certain registry entries I keep to help get my programs back the way I like them. Will XP's registry entries work with Vista?

Vista Registry Editor Was Blocked

May 3, 2009

I have a simple problem: access to registry editor was blocked by some malware. Now I removed the malware (an old worm which somehow passed through Windows Defender while I was browsing a DVD). But access to Registry Editor is still blocked and I have to restore it manually. However, I have Vista Home Premium x64, which doesn't include Group Policy Editor. How else can I restore access to regedit?

Registry Cleaners Messing Things Up On Vista

May 19, 2009

I read quite often about the possibility of "registry cleaners" messing things up on Vista. Is it recommended not to use a registry cleaner at all? Are there good/bad ones? My computer is almost brand new so I don't believe I have any problems. I used a registry cleaner on my old XP computer.....it found lots of problems.....fixed them and the machine ran better than ever!

Quicksys Registry Cleaner: Not Recommended To Defragment Registry Across Drives

Feb 27, 2009

WARNING: only for advanced users who like to clean the registry. Quicksys regcleaner normally $25 free - only 4hrs left from here: http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/

Win 7 compatible - have used this and deleted all 1200 entries it found. It makes a backup - been running for several hours and reboots with no probs. Also working fine so far on my Vista x64 and Win 7 x86 installs. After cleaning you need to shut the app. and reopen it for it to find it's backups. (Easy to find them by hand - it can compress them to.7z files, too ). Have used their regdefrag a lot - identical scans and results to the Auslogics and Glary versions- so use whichever defragger you already have. WARNING: not recommended to defrag registry across drives.

Monitor Speakers Not Vouleme Setting On Vista

Oct 29, 2008

I recently started to use the monitor speakers - previously had the monitor volume turned right down. There is an annoying medium-high pitched hum thru. the speakers. The volume of the hum varies with the volume on the monitor, not the volume settings on Vista. Detaching the 3.5mm sound lead ( DVI lead attached )reduces the hum considerably. Detaching the DVI lead (sound lead attached ) removes the hum. Using VGA lead makes no difference. Have tried different sound drivers, different video drivers, reinstalled the o/s - makes no difference.

As the hum seems to be travelling down the DVI/VGA lead, tried a different graphics card ( with passive heatsink - no fan ) - makes no difference. Took the side off the pc and can just discern the same hum if I get my ear in the right place - from inside the pc. Detached the rear fan - no difference. Detached the mobo fan - no difference. The only thing left is the psu - could the fan noise/vibration be traveling via the graphics card to the monitor ?

Resetting C-drive Allocations To Default Setting In Vista

Jan 15, 2010

To prepare for a dual boot installation (Vista / Ubuntu) I had to allocate space on my C-drive using Vista's 'Disk Management' and 'Shrink Volume' features. Unfortunately, in the process of making the allocation, I mistakenly allocated 40 MB instead of 40 GB. Went back into 'Shrink Volume' to correct the allocation but it apparently cannot increase space. Also tried 'Extend Volume', no luck there either (or maybe I just don't understand how it works). For what it's worth, here's my current C-drive allocations.

144.81 GB NTFS
40.00 MB Unallocated (reserved for Ubuntu) (this is what should have been 40GB)
75.29 GB Primary Partition
3.24 GB Primary Partition
9.49 GB NTFS

I should also mention that I already have Ubuntu installed, so this is actually a re-installation to solve a connection problem I'm having with Ubuntu.

Vital Setting Restore Full Vista Backup

Sep 14, 2009

I'm using a combination of the Vista backup to do a complete backup of my OS and applications (for emergency restore) and another backup tool to handle my data. My OS is on C: and my data on D: (and other drives). query is that C: will contain application settings/data - for example if I write actions in Photoshop they will be stored under the user application data subdirectory or if I create a DOT template for Word it will be stored under the hidden data directories for Word.

I want to be sure that I am backing up all of the vital application data/settings so that I can either restore just those or in an emergency can restore my full Vista backup (done weekly) and then restore the application data (which I want to backup daily). I've searched this set of forums and elsewhere to find something that lists which subdirectory tree(s) I need to ensure that I have backed up (and I guess I'll need to do a registry backup too each day just in case settings are stored there). I can't find such a list. Does anyone know of a document that details what the vital stuff to backup is?

Uniblue Registry Booster And Registry Scans.

Nov 13, 2009

I am using this program to clean up my registry and it seems to work fine except the errors keep coming back. I can do a scan, clean up all the errors and then shut down and start up and I have a new 20 registry error list and most or all of the errors relate to "bad path for the value" and its windows files that seem to be at fault. I don't understand why Microsoft operating system would create registry errors on a startup, before anything has been installed etc. is RegistryBooster misleading me or what. I am running win7 but it did the same thing on vista home premium so I think the question is valid for this group.
