Saving Windows settings across reboots 

 

OS : Windows 95

User Level : Intermed.

 

If you have different settings for your explorer shortcuts (e.g. you might 

want a certain directory shortcut to always appear down the left-hand 

side of the screen) you might find that these settings won't be saved 

across reboots. To fix this problem, obtain tweakui  (32-bit shareware 

section), go to the explorer tab in tweakui and check 'Save windows 

settings'. Arrange the window appearance for your icon and be sure to 

use Close on the File menu. Then go back into tweakui and uncheck 

'Save windows settings'. This is  useful if say, you have heaps of 

directories, or use other directories across networks, and find yourself 

always copying files  between the two. Set explorer to take up 2/3rds 

of your screen, and your shortcut to the other 3rd, (Maybe it could be a 

shortcut to  open C: as opposed to exploring it)
