Tóm tắt:Windows XP Hacks and Mods For Dummies takes you into the belly of the beast, showing you where and how to bend Windows to your way of working. Some of the changes you find in this book use tools built into Windows itself — frequently in ways you might not have considered. Many of the changes require poking and prodding in ways that Windows’ designers never imagined. Sometimes you walk in the front door; sometimes you shimmy down the chimney. Whatever it takes, eh? Back in the not-so-good old days, a Windows “hack” was, by definition, a modification to the Registry that made Windows work better. Or at least it made Windows work differently. Nowadays, it’s unusual to find a hack that has to be performed mano a mano with the Registry: Third-party programs (including, most notably, TweakUI — which comes from Microsoft) frequently do the heavy work. The kind of hacks and mods you find in this book allow you to customize and protect your computers, and make your computer work better. I avoid hacks that only offer marginal improvement. Unfortunately, a large percentage of published hacks you’ll find on the Internet and in books fall into that category. I warn you about the most-commonly-cited “hacks” that only waste your time or make your system unstable. There’s quite a crop of ’em. Think of it this way. For years, Windows has been biting you. Now it’s time to bite back.
