Here’s how you can remove those shortcut arrows from your desktop icons in Windows XP.

1. Start regedit.
2. Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTlnkfile
3. Delete the IsShortcut registry value.

You may need to restart Windows XP.

Here’s how to prevent this remote search for Scheduled Tasks:

Open up the Registry and go to :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/RemoteComputer/NameSpace

Under that branch, select the key :

{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}

and delete it.

If you like you may want to export the exact branch so that you can restore the key if necessary. This fix is so effective that it doesn’t require a reboot and you can almost immediately determine yourself how much it speeds up your browsing processes.

XP uses the C:\Program Files directory as the default base directory into which new programs are installed. However, you can change the default installation drive and/ or directory by using a Registry hack.

Go to :

- Start > Run

- Type “regedit” (without “”)

- Go to this directory…
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

- Look for the value named ProgramFilesDir. by default,this value will be C:\Program Files. Edit the value to any valid drive or folder and now XP will use that new location as the default installation directory for new programs.

- Careful on Editing the Registry

• Task Manager can also be executed by running the taskmgr.exe file from the C:\Winnt\System32 directory or by clicking Start, Run and typing taskmgr.
• If a program is no longer responding users can also choose to “End Task” from the Task Manager to close the program without restarting the computer.
• Earlier versions of Microsoft Windows (Microsoft Windows 3.x, Windows 95, Windows 98) had a program known as tasks to display the current programs currently running. This file was executed by running the taskman.exe file from the C:\Windows directory.

If you’re encountering issues opening the Task Manager it’s possible that the computer could be infected with a virus and/or spyware or disabld by the administrator. Try this simple ITSoftMedia Solution for fixing this problem:
