@#$Node 0 Startup
@#$Node 1 Disable Using Registry Run keys
@#$Key 2 DisableLocalMachineRunOnce
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Directs the system to ignore customized run-once lists.
This entry stores the setting of the Disable the run once list Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the
registry with a value of 1 when you configure the Disable the run once list policy. If you disable the policy or set
it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the
value is 0.
Value Meaning
0 The policy is disabled or not configured. The system runs the programs in the run-once list.
1 The policy is enabled. The system ignores the run-once list.
A run-once list is customized list of additional programs and documents that are started automatically the next
time the system starts (but not thereafter). These programs are added to the standard list of programs and
services that the system starts.
Change method
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Disable the run once list
policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System).
@#$Key 2 DisableLocalMachineRun
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Directs the system to ignore the customized run list for Windows NT 4.0 and earlier.
This entry stores the setting of the Disable legacy run list Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the
registry with a value of 1 when you configure the Disable legacy run list policy. If you disable the policy or set it
to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the
value is 0.
Value Meaning
0 The policy is disabled or not configured. Windows 2000 adds any customized run list configured for
Windows NT 4.0 and earlier to its run list.
1 The policy is enabled. The system ignores the run list for Windows NT 4.0 and earlier.
A run list is customized list of additional programs and documents that the system starts automatically when it
starts. These programs are added to the standard run list of programs and services that the system starts.
Change method
To change the value of this entry, use Group Policy. This entry corresponds to the Disable legacy run list
policy (Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System).
Note
This entry can appear in both HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER. If this entry appears
in both subtrees, the value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE takes precedence over the value in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
Tip
The customized run lists for Windows NT 4.0 and earlier are stored in the registry in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\Run. They can be
configured by using the Run policy in System Policy Editor for Windows NT 4.0 and earlier.
@#$Key 2 Disable RunOnce for current User
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Directs the system to ignore customized run-once lists.
This entry stores the setting of the Disable the run once list Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the
registry with a value of 1 when you configure the Disable the run once list policy. If you disable the policy or set
it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes the entry from the registry and the system behaves as though the
value is 0.
Value Meaning
0 The policy is disabled or not configured. The system runs the programs in the run-once list.
1 The policy is enabled. The system ignores the run-once list.
A run-once list is customized list of additional programs and documents that are started automatically the next
time the system starts (but not thereafter). These programs are added to the standard list of programs and
services that the system starts.
@#$Key 1 Enable or disable boot defrag
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfrg\BootOptimizeFunction
A great new feature in Microsoft Windows XP is the ability to do a boot defragment. This places all boot files
next to each other on the disk to allow for faster booting. By default this option in enables but on some builds it
is not so below is how to turn it on.
1. Go to the key.
2. Select Enable value from the list on the right.
3. Right click on it and select Modify.
4. Change the value to Y to enable and N to disable.
5.Reboot your computer.

@#$Key 1 XP memory tweaks
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
1) DisablePagingExecutive - When enabled, this setting will prevent the paging of the Win2k Executive files to
the hard drive, causing the OS and most programs to be more responsive. However, it is advised that people
should only perform this tweak if they have a significant amount of RAM on their system (more than 128 MB),
because this setting does use a substantial portion of your system resources. By default, the value of this key
is 0. To enable it, set it to 1.
2) LargeSystemCache - When enabled (the default on Server versions of Windows 2000), this setting tells the
OS to devote all but 4 MB of system memory (which is left for disk caching) to the file system cache. The main
effect of this is allowing the computer to cache the OS Kernel to memory, making the OS more responsive.
The setting is dynamic and if more than 4 MB is needed from the disk cache for some reason, the space will
be released to it. By default, 8MB is earmarked for this purpose. This tweak usually makes the OS more
responsive. It is a dynamic setting, and the kernel will give up any space deemed necessary for another
application (at a performance hit when such changes are needed). As with the previous key, set the value
from 0 to 1 to enable. Note that in doing this, you are consuming more of your system RAM than normal. While
LargeSystemCache will cut back usage when other apps need more RAM, this process can
impede performance in certain intensive situations. According to Microsoft, the "[0] setting is recommended for
servers running applications that do their own memory caching, such as Microsoft SQL Server, and for
applications that perform best with ample memory, such as Internet Information Services."
3) IOPageLockLimit - This tweak is of questionable value to people that aren't running some kind of server off
of their computer, but we will include it anyway. This tweak boosts the Input/Output performance of your
computer when it is doing a large amount of file transfers and other similar operations. This tweak won't do
much of anything for a system without a significant amount of RAM (if you don't have more than 128 MB, don't
even bother), but systems with more than 128 MB of RAM will generally find a performance boost by setting
this to between 8 and 16 MB. The default is 0.5 MB, or 512 KB. This setting requires a value in bytes, so
multiply the desired number of megabytes * 1024 * 1024. That's X * 1048576 (where X is the number, in
megabytes). Test out several settings and keep the one which seems to work best for your system.

@#$Key 1 Modify auto-reboot setting
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl
Since Microsoft has worked so hard to make this version "the most stable ever," then this tweak is not
needed. However, I am fairly sure that they have not perfected millions of lines of code in less than a year.
Below you will discover how to turn the auto reboot feature on and off. This allows your computer to instantly
reboot upon a system fault. (The blue screen)
1.Navigate to the key.
2.Select AutoReboot value.
3.Right click on it and select Modify.
4.Change the value to 0 to disable and 1 to enable.
5.Reboot your computer.

@#$Key 1 Modify application timeout
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
The operating system has a set amount of time that a program must be frozen for before it is timed out. Often
this number is set too high. But in some circumstances it is set too low. Depending on if the program is doing
a lot of calculations in the background the computer may think that it is timed out. To prevent this increase the
value of the timeout in the registry.
1.Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
2.Select HungAppTimeout value from the list on the right.
3.Right click on it and select Modify.
4.Change the value to the new timeout value.
5.Reboot your computer.

@#$Key 1 Removal of Shared Documents from My Computer
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\DelegateFolders
Look for a sub-key titled {59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}. Delete this one and all of the
Shared Documents folders (normally grouped as "Other Files Stored on This Computer") will be gone.
Reboot after the changes to make them active.
