Discalimer: Always create a Restore Point before editing the Windows Registry.
1. Aero Tweak:
Are you really frustrated because your Windows 7 Aero Visual keeps crashing now and then while playing certain games like CoD: MW or running certain applications like Picasa or while the power is down? Worry no more because I am going to make it right just for you!
Open regedit
In the Registry Editor, navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM
In the right details pane, create following Three DWORD (32-bit value) entry
UseMachineCheck, and set its value to 0.
Blur, and set its value to 0.
Animations, and set its value to 0.
Close the Regedit
Open CMD with Administrative Privileges and type the following commands:
Net Stop uxsms
Net Start uxsms
Your Aero problem is now solved forever!
2. Search the Internet from Start Menu:
Open Group Policy (gpedit.msc).
Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar.
Double-click "Add Search Internet link to Start Menu," and from the screen that appears, select Enabled. Then click OK and close the Group Policy Editor.
3. Protect the privacy of your Explorer searches:
Open Group Policy (gpedit.msc).
Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Explorer.
Double-click "Turn off display of recent search entries in the Windows Explorer search box" and select Enabled from the screen that appears. Then click OK. The recent searches feature will now be turned off.
4. WMP 12 Library Problems:
So you have been having trouble with Windows Media Player like:
1. You cannot view, add, or delete items in the library.
2. The Apply Media Information Changes option does not apply your settings and the progress indicator does not appear.
3. Error message that says the Library Database is corrupted.
4. Folders and files that are added to the Library are not saved.
This occurs because as with any database, information that is stored in the database or the database itself can become corrupted. The Windows Media Player library database can usually recover automatically from database corruption. However, the database may become corrupted in such a way that Windows Media Player cannot recover the database.
To resolve this problem, follow these steps.
1. Close Windows Media Player
1. Close Windows Media Player
2. Open Run and type
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player
then click OK
3. Delete all the files in the folder.
Problem Solved!
Problem Solved!
Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds this database.
