Just my thoughts....
Can It Be Done?
Published on September 4, 2012 By RedneckDude In Personal Computing

I need to clear the recently opened skins list in SKS quite often.

 

I have to do it via regedit.

 

Is it possible to create a shortcut to a particular regisrty key?

 

Or maybe a gadget/widget to open it easily?

I don't know about shortcuts, but you can add the key you are accessing to the favorites in the reg editor so you can just click on the favorites key in reg editor and jump to that key.

Well, that helps, Thanks!!!   I wasn't aware the favorites were there!!

You should also be able to make a .reg file to do the change, then run it and one click to do the job.

Post teh text of the reg file here.

I think I figured it out. I neglected to add the - before the key. Seems to work now.

 

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\WindowBlinds\SKS6.ini\SkinHistory]

I like :

reg  delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\somethign esle

It makes me feel better to know what's going on more easily.
