Set Your Desired Wallpaper as Folder Background Image in Windows XP

Here are the methods to set any desired wallpaper as background image in any folder in Windows XP:

A. Using Desktop.ini Trick to Set a Wallpaper as Folder Background Image:

1. Open Command Prompt and set folder attribute to "system". Suppose there is a folder "Setup" in "D:\" drive, in which you want to set a wallpaper as background image. So give following command in Command Prompt:


attrib +s D:\Setup

It'll change the attribute to "system".

2. Now open Notepad and paste following code:


[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC} = {BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
Attributes=1
IconArea_Image=path_of_the_wallpaper
IconArea_Text=0x00000000

Now change "path_of_the_wallpaper" to the exact path of the wallpaper which you want to set as background. Suppose the wallpaper is stored in "D:\Wallpaper\Image1.jpg", then the code will be as following:


[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC} = {BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
Attributes=1
IconArea_Image=D:\Wallpaper\Image1.jpg
IconArea_Text=0x00000000

NOTE: If you copy the wallpaper in the same folder which you are editing, then you can simply put the wallpaper name in the file. e.g. if you copy the "Image1.jpg" file in "Setup" folder, then the code will be as following:


[ExtShellFolderViews]
{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC} = {BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}

[{BE098140-A513-11D0-A3A4-00C04FD706EC}]
Attributes=1
IconArea_Image=Image1.jpg
IconArea_Text=0x00000000

"IconArea_Text" stands for the text color, you can change it to white, yellow, blue, black or any other color. You just need to know the hexa-decimal number of the color and then replace the code in "IconArea_Text" section. A few most used color codes are as follows:


Black - 0x00000000
White - 0x00FFFFFF
Green - 0x0000FF00
Blue - 0x00FF0000
Purple - 0x00C000C0
Red - 0x000000FF
Yellow - 0x0000FFFF
Indigo - 0x00FFFF00

3. Now save the file with name "Desktop.ini" (including quotes) and copy the file in the desired folder which is "Setup" in our example.

4. That's it. Close the folder and re-open it. Now it should show the wallpaper as background.


B. Using the Same Method of "IEShwiz.exe" file used in Windows 9x/NT/2000:

1. Copy "IEShwiz.exe" file from Windows 98/Me/NT/2000 and paste in "%windir%" directory (C:\Windows, if your Windows is installed in C:\ drive).

2. Now Type regedit in RUN dialog box and press Enter. Now go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\

Now under this key, create a new key "Customize This Folder". Now select this newly created key and create another key under it with the name "Command". Select this new key "Command" and change the value of "Default" in right side pane to IESHWIZ.EXE %1

3. That's it. Now open any folder and right-click, you'll get an option "Customize This Folder". Click on it and follow the wizard and you'll be able to set a wallpaper as the background and to change font color.

Method B:

1. Type "secpol.msc" in RUN dialog box or Start Menu search box, it'll open "Local Security Policy" window.

2. Go to "Local Policies -> Security Options".

3. Double-click on first option "Accounts: Administrator account status" and select "Enabled" and apply it.

How to Reset / Recover / Change Forgotten Administrator Password in Windows?


Method 1: Using Welcome or Login Screen

This method is the first thing which should always do whenever you forget your Windows login password. When we install Windows, it automatically creates a hidden user account"Administrator" and sets its password to blank. So if you forget your user account password then try this:

1. Start your computer and when you see Windows Welcome screen (Login screen), press <ctrl>+<alt>+<del> keys twice and it'll show Classic Login box.




2. Now type Administrator in Username box and leave Password box empty. Now press Enter and you should be able to log into Windows.

3. Now you can reset your account password from "Control Panel -> User Accounts".

Same thing can be done using Safe Mode. In Safe Mode Windows will show this in-builtAdministrator account in Login screen.

Method 2: Using Password Reset Disk

Windows XP and later Windows versions provide a built-in method to recover forgotten password by using "Password Reset Disk". If you created a Password Reset Disk in past, you can use that disk to reset the password.

If you don't know how to create a password reset disk, lets tell you in details. You can create the password reset disk using Control panel -> User Accounts applet.

First open Control Panel and click on User Accounts icon. It'll open User Accounts window. Now click on your user account and then click on "Prevent a forgotten password" link given in left-side pane. It'll open forgotten password wizard as shown in following screenshot:

Hide File Names” Option in “View” Menu in Windows Vista and 7

Here are the steps

1. Open a folder, in which you want to add this option. If you want to add this option in all folders, then open the parent folder. e.g. if you want to add the option in every folder of E: drive, then open E: drive.

2. Right-click on a blank area in the folder and select "Customize This Folder...". You can also get this option from "View -> Customize This Folder...".

3. It'll open "Customize" tab. Now select "Pictures and Videos" option from "Template" drop-down box. In Windows 7, Pictures and Videos options are given separately. You can select any of them.

NOTE: If you want to add the option "Hide File Names" to a particular folder then make sure to un-check the option "Also apply this template to all subfolders", otherwise enable this option.





4. Now Apply it

Now you'll get an extra option "Hide File Names" in "View". Which can hide file/folder names in that particular folder.

How to Get Extra Free Disk Space in Windows





Following are some easy ways to free up some disk space in Windows:


STEP 1: Using Disk Cleanup

First thing is to use Windows built-in "Disk Cleanup" application. You can right-click on a drive in My Computer and select "Properties" now click on "Disk Cleanup" button. Alternatively you can run "Disk Cleanup" directly from RUN dialog box by giving "cleanmgr.exe" command. You can also add "Disk Cleanup" option in drives context menu for quick and easy access..

Disk Cleanup program, select all given options such as "Downloaded Program Files", "Temporary Internet Files", "Compress old files", "Previous Windows installation(s)" etc. At last click on OK button and it'll free up good amount of disk space in your computer. You can get more than 1GB free space after using Disk Cleanup.

STEP 2: Empty TEMP Folder

You can also empty TEMP (just type TEMP and %TEMP% one by one in RUN dialog box and press Enter) and C:\Windows\Prefetch folders regularly to free up disk space.

STEP 3: Empty Browser Cache and Cookies

Also empty temporary Internet files (cache and cookies) of your web browser to get some free space.

STEP 4: Disable Hibernation

Disable Hibernation from "Power Settings" (powercfg.cpl), if you don't use this feature. Disabling this feature will free up 1GB+ disk space.

STEP 5: Turn Off System Restore

Open "System Properties" by right-click on "My Computer" icon on Desktop and select "Properties". Now go to "System Restore" tab and select "Turn Off System Restore on all drives" option and apply it. Don't use this trick if you use System Restore. If you disable it, Windows will not create system restore point in future and it'll not waste any valuable disk space.

STEP 6: Remove Windows Updates Uninstallation Folders

You can also delete all updates uninstallation folders which can be found in C:\Windows folder. All these folders will be hidden and their names will start with $NtUninstall (or similar term). Keep in mind that after deleting these folders you'll not be able to uninstall any Windows update.

STEP 7: Disable Windows File Protection Service

You can also disable WFP (Windows File Protection) service in Windows XP using WFP Patcher. This service runs in background and checks for system files status. Whenever it finds that a system file has been changed/modified, it replaces the new file with the original file stored in "DLLcache" folder.

First disable this service and after disabling the service, open "C:\Windows\System32\DLLCache" folder (it'll be HIDDEN & System Folder, so copy paste the path in address bar and press Enter key). Now you can safely delete all files present in this folder. It'll give you approx. 1GB free disk space.


STEP 8: Delete Temporary Files

Open Windows Search and copy paste following code in search box and perform a search:

*.tmp;*.log;*log.txt;*readme.txt;file_id.diz;*.bak;*.old;*.syd;*.prv;*.grp;*.gid;*.fts;*.cnt;*.~mp

You'll find many temporary files in search result. Make sure to check all the files before deleting. You'll get 100's of files after searching, simply select them all and delete them.


PS: Please check the files before deletion! It'll delete all readme files, backup files, log files, etc. So deselect the files which you don't want to delete.


STEP 9: Delete Unnecessary Image Files


You can also delete several BMP files present in C:\Windows folder which are used as wallpapers in Desktop Properties. You can also delete all files in C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper folder. All files in this folder are also used as wallpapers.


STEP 10: Delete Unnecessary Video Files

You can also delete all video files present in C:\Windows\system32\oobe\images folder. These files are used when Windows runs for the first time after installation.

That's all. You can apply all above mentioned methods to get lots of free disk space in Windows.

You can also use 3rd party Utilities such as Tuneup Utilities, System Mechanic, etc to free up some disk space but these utilities also use most of the above mentioned techniques.
