Accelerating NTFS partition.

By removing the creation of registered 8.3 on NTFS partitions and updating of the field Last Access Time Stamp each time you access to a folder accelerate performance vĂ³lumenes NTFS

In NTFS partitions with a lot of files named long and constant access to them, we can significantly increase performance if disable the creation of filenames in 8.3 format. However, if any installation program of old 16-bit applications stops working, we can revive the creation of 8.3 filenames on a temporary basis so that the installation is carried out successfully.

OPEN "regedit.exe" from the Start menu and go to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ FileSystem. Create or modify a DWORD value "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" containing "1" to turn off the creation of 8.3 filenames.

Likewise, when Widnows XP When accessing a directory on an NTFS volume, updates the field Last Access Time Stamp (last done access) at the MFT for each of the subdirectories to find. Thus if we sailed by folder with a large number of subdirectories, the speed in exploring files decrease. To disable this feature,

Open "regedit.exe" from the Start menu GO to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ FileSystem. Create or modify a DWORD value "NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate" whose contents will be "1" to disable the update of this field in NTFS partitions

RESTRICTIONS FOR DESKTOP

Some of the characteristics of the active Windows desktop can be controlled and disabled on an individual basis through the registration ...

Type "regedit.exe" from the Start menu => Run and go to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ ActiveDesktop. There create or modify existing DWORD values, the content of which is "1" to enable the restriction, or "0" to disable the restriction:


"NoChangingWallpaper": Disable the possibility of changing the wallpaper.
"NoAddingComponents": Disable the ability and add components.
"NoDeletingComponents": Disable the possibility of eliminating components.
"NoEditingComponents": Disable the ability to edit components.
"NoHTMLWallPaper": Disable the use of different files bitmap (. Bmp) as a screen.
