How to add

This registry hack will add printers and folders, scheduled tasks, network connections,fonts, and administrative tools to my computer which makes it very easy to navigate through the system settings. Note: it is reccomended to back up the registry before any registry hacks. Tweak steps:

Step 1: open up notepad and paste the following into it.

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}]
@="Printers and Faxes"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{D20EA4E1-3957-11D2-A40B-0C5020524153}]
@="Administrative Tools"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}]
@="Scheduled Tasks"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{7007ACC7-3202-11D1-AAD2-00805FC1270E}]
@="Network Connections"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{D20EA4E1-3957-11D2-A40B-0C5020524152}]
@="Fonts"

Step 2: save what you created as "moreicons.reg" [remember the location]

Step 3: right-click on moreicons.reg and select merge

Step 4: look inside my computer to find the the new icons
