When you've a laptop there's you have an option that can set the action windows does when you close your laptop lid (power options -> Advanced)
Default setting is that the laptop goes to standby.

Ofc you can change it manually, but i wanna change it via a reg-key to no action.
(Also NOT over adm-templates or group policies, just reg keys).
Any idea? Seeked the net, but didnt find much useful.


Also i wanna automatically reg-key the windows setting: "Highlight new installed programs in the start menu" to disable.

thx in advance
 
Your google skills suck, must practice more!

New Program Highlight
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
Start_NotifyNewApps
0 = disabled 1=highlight

Lid Close
Set the policy to what you want when you close the lid on any laptop and export the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\PowerCfg\GlobalPowerPolicy
Policies

when importing, import the key and run 'rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,LoadCurrentPwrScheme' to start the profile.
 
i should have known by myself, that when i add "god" in a thread title, Mym will answer ;)

True, my google skill is like my UT skill. Lacking.
Anyway, i searched with german keywords, prolly that was my failure.
