WindowsXP Super Nirvana

  
        Everyone has been using Windows XP for a long time, and is very familiar with the Windows XP operating system! Have you summed up some experience to share with you? Below, I will share some of the experience accumulated in the process of using Windows XP operating system, and also let you quickly get started in the process of using Windows XP operating system. Mastering the skills of XP can better enjoy the powerful features that XP system brings to you.

1, restore damaged system files Win XP

if Windows XP system file is corrupted with a virus or other reasons, we can restore those destroyed from the Windows XP installation disk file.

specific methods: In Windows XP installation disk file search is damaged, it is necessary to note that the last character of the file name with the bottom line "_" instead of, for example: if you want to search for "Notepad.exe" You need to use "Notepad.ex_" for

search.

After searching, open the command line mode (enter "cmd" in "Run") and enter: "Full path of the EXPAND source file The full path to the target file". For example: EXPAND D:\\SETUP\\NOTEPAD.EX_ C:\\Windows\\NOTEPAD.EXE. One thing to note is that if there are spaces in the path, you need to include the path in double quotes (quotation marks).

Finding is of course the best, but sometimes we can't find the files we need when searching on Windows XP. One reason for this is that the file you are looking for is in the "CAB" file. Since Windows XP treats "CAB" as a folder, for Windows XP, just drag and drop the "CAB" file to the appropriate directory.

If you are using other Windows platforms, search for a "CAB" file containing the target file name. Then open the command line mode and type: "EXTRACT /L target location full path of the CAB file", for example: EXTRACT /L C: \\ Windows D: \\ I386 \\ Driver .cab Notepad.exe. As before, as if there are spaces in the path, you need to enclose the path in double quotes.

2, refused to "Group similar taskbar"

Although Windows XP "Group similar taskbar buttons" setting although you can make your taskbar to open a small window, keep it clean, but some need It is very inconvenient to open multiple windows of the same type. If you use QQ communication software to chat with people online, if there are more than two friends talking to you at the same time, you will immediately feel the inconvenience caused by the default settings of XP DD every time you want to switch the conversation object. You must first click on the group, then select the friends you want to talk in the pop-up menu, and each friend displays the same icon in the group. When there are many conversation objects, you may have to click one by one to see exactly Who replied, waiting for your reaction, and choosing the wrong one, has to choose from the group, it is very troublesome. Obviously, this is not as good as opening a few windows, and clicking on each small window in the taskbar can start chatting. Change method: Click “Start → Control Panel → Appearance and Theme → Taskbar and ‘Start Menu”. In the pop-up window, remove the hook in front of the “Group similar taskbar button” option.



3, through the registry uninstall unwanted dynamic link

Explorer often left unused in the memory dynamically linked, in order to eliminate this phenomenon, you can open the registry Editor, set the key value: HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion

\\EXPlorer\\AlwaysUnloadDLL=DWord: 1 Set it to

to 0, this function will be turned off. Note: In order for the settings to take effect, you will need to restart your computer.

4, clear the prefetch files

prefetch folder Win XP after a period of time, the prefetch folder in the file can become very large, which will have dead links file This will slow down the system time. Recommendation: Delete these files on a regular basis. (Windows \\ prefetch)

5, Windows XP diet

the following method is my current winXP weight loss method, through use, I feel relatively safe, the effect is obvious, at least it can reduce 300m space. Note: It is not recommended for beginners to use

to delete the driver backup: Driver.cab file (73MB) in the Windows\\Driver cache\\i386 directory. However, we must insert the Windows installation CD each time we install new hardware. >
Delete system file backup (usually not used): Run the command line sfc /purgecache

Delete the alternate dll file: As long as you copy the installation file or have the installation CD, you can do this . Files under Windows\\system32\\dllcache (minus 200-300mb).

7, Win XP startup time when understanding

Although Windows XP startup speed has make us feel satisfied, but Microsoft still provides a tool for understanding the Windows XP start for us The gadgets that consume the startup time, as well as the CPU usage, Disk I/O, etc., are displayed at a glance because the tool is graphically displayed. Tools can be downloaded here.

8, resuming association EXE file association

EXE file error is very troublesome, because this happens mostly caused by a virus, and anti-virus software master file are EXE file, Since the EXE file is faulty, how can I run anti-virus software? Fortunately, XP provides a command line tool in safe mode for us to use, you can use the command line tool to solve this problem.

In safe mode, type: assoc<space >.exe=exefile<Enter>, the screen will display ".exe=exefile". Now close the command prompt window, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up the “Windows Security” window, press the “Shutdown” button and select the “Restart” option. After starting Windows in normal mode, all EXE files will be normal. Run it!

9, so that Win XP can automatically update

When Windows has been updated, automatically updates the system will prompt you to upgrade Windows, of course, will have this feature after Internet The real effect. One thing to be sure is that in order to achieve automatic updates, the system must collect the user's computer information, and then send it to the Microsoft site, through feedback to decide whether to upgrade. This setting is also in the "System Properties" window. Switch to the "Automatic Updates" tab. You can see that there are three choices here. The last one is "Close Auto Update", so the system will not prompt you to automatically update. If you are not using the genuine Windows XP operating system, I suggest you turn off this feature, because he may let you upgrade the system to Windows XP SP2 without knowing it, which will cause system instability.



10, install IIS

in Home Edition As you know, Windows XP Home Edition can not install IIS or PWS. As a general rule, you can only upgrade to XP Professional or use Windows 2000, but with a little help, you can install IIS on Windows XP Home.

First enter "c:\\Windows\\inf\\sysoc.inf" in "Run" of the "Start" menu, the system will automatically open the sysoc.inf file using Notepad. Find the "[Components]" section in sysoc.inf and continue to find a line like "iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,hide,7" and replace this line with "iis=iis2.dll" , OcEntry, IIS2.inf,, 7". Then save and close.

Insert the Windows 2000 Professional CD into the CD-ROM drive and press the Shift key to disable the CD-ROM drive. Enter "CMD" in the run and press Enter to open the command line mode. Enter the following two commands at the command line and press Enter after each line command (assuming the CD drive is D):

EXPand d:\\i386\\iis.dl_ c:\\Windows\\system32\\setup\\IIS2.dll

EXPand d:\\i386\\iis.in_ c:\\Windows\\inf\\IIS2.inf

At this point, open your control panel and click on the "Add Remove Programs" icon, then click on "Add and Remove Windows Components".

Please take a closer look, the operating system displayed in the "Start" menu is Windows XP Home, but after modification, there is already an option to add IIS.

then you can follow or add IIS in Windows 2000 in the method of Windows XP Professional, in this case, we only install the WWW service. The system will start copying files, which will take some time. And for this reason, please keep the Windows 2000 Professional CD in the CD-ROM drive.

After the installation is complete, you can open "Control Panel → Performance and Options → Administrative Tools", "Internet Information Service Management" has appeared there.

If you want to verify that IIS is working properly and IE is open, type "http://localhost
" in the address bar and press Enter. If you can see the interface in Figure 3. Then your IIS is all working.

last thing to note: If you are in the installation process, the system requires you to insert Window Whistler CD or you need to provide exch_adsiisex.dll this document, it is because you have IIS installed with default options. To solve this problem, just click "Details" when installing IIS, and then cancel the selection of SMTP (ie do not install SMTP server), then you will not need those two files when copying files.

If you find that the installation of Internet Information Services (IIS) has been displayed after you installed the location in Figure 1, but they can not be selected at all, it is likely because you use iis.dl_ And IIS.in_ is taken from Windows XP Professional, as long as it is replaced by Windows 2000 Professional, you can continue to install normally.

proven, WWW, FTP, and several other services can run properly on Windows XP Home after such modifications.
