wow.... i am GOOD!
i managed to do so many things to my computer and settings through
registry editor.

i can rename,cut,paste,copy, and even DELETE my recycle bin
i can change the title of my internet explorer in the title bar (blue bar at the top of the screen)
i can change the text of the 'start' menu, so instead of it saying start. it can say something else.
i can change the color of an active folder or icon
(like on desktop when you click once on the icon, it goes blue...i can change that color)
and i can also change the size of the icons or folders.

wow, i caould not beleive myself lol i was like :-|.....am i good or WHAT?!

hahahaha

I was about to say I can do all that without changing anything then I realized I can't change the internet explorer name.
Because I don't use it. Firefox. pwns.

And most of these registry hacks can be looked up on the net for the uninitiated.

But guess psp man, you are good so you don've to do that :D

It's not that different, it's that if all you can do on a computer is check your email and microsoft word, theres no point to getting something else, unless you're dirt poor and can't afford windows.

yeah, it took me forever to figure this stuff out scryptor,
dud i just sat down after school and was screwing around
with my computer, and then i changed something, and i was like
holy crap!

lol and then after that i just kept figuring stuff out lol

Samineru, i am certain that you can change the stuff i did
yourself, but you dont use the regedit command. it is pretty
hard to do all my stuff with regedit, but once u figure
it out, you get the hang of it.

The only reason I don't use regedit is because I don't have it.

you OBIVIOUSLY dont know what regedit is lol
every single computer has it, it is like command prompt, you
open up run and you type it in, and a window pops up
if your computer didnt have regedit, it would not be functioning right now.

Yep, typing regedit in the terminal did jack s***. I think you might be assuming too much.
