 Hi,

Trying to remove some strips and some tiles from the Vista Media Center
menu. I have edited the Registry as follows but with no sucess:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media
Center\Start Menu]
"HideVideos"=dword:00000001
"HideDVD"=dword:00000001
"HideWebsite"=dword:00000001
"HideHighMAT"=dword:00000001
"HideTV"=dword:00000001
"HideRadio"=dword:00000001
"HideMusic"=dword:00000001

Does anyone know how to sucessfully add/remove menu tiles and/or strips in
the Media Center menu?

Thanks in advance

Have you tried doing it through Set Program Access and Computer Defaults


1.. Click on the Start menu and choose Default Programs
2.. Click on the item named Set Program Access and Computer Defaults
3.. Choose the Custom configuration

Enable/disable what you want/don't want.
