I've used several versions of TweakUI and it allways put
an icon in the control panel. But for WindowsXP
Professional I downloaded the Microsoft PowerToys for
Windows XP and it did not put the icon in the control
panel.

Could someone please help me fix this, if there is a way
to? I would appreciate any help I can get,

See www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 1, Left column. This REG file will make the necessary changes to your Registry for TweakUI to appear in the Control Panel.

Hi,

If you have downloaded the latest verison of Power Toys for Windows XP then it creates a menu item "Power Toys for Windows XP" and then in that group you will see Tweak UI. It is faster to access than going to Control Panel.

Not for me, I use the Classic Start Menu. Win key, S, Enter, Enter, T, T, Enter. But I've always been faster with keyboard than a mouse :)

Mac research shows people brains go into a mode where the time sense is suspended when retrieving keyboard shortcuts from memory, up to two seconds of dead time that the keyboard user doesn't relaise. See the books by Tog on this from the 80s.

Guess I'm not one of them, David. 🙂 Takes me two seconds to move my hand from the keyboard to the mouse! <G>
