Hi folks,

I downloaded and installed tweakui for XP Wednesday. Does
anyone know where I can find a comprehensive how-to or
more robust help articles. I've searched Google and found
a few tidbits,mostly download links,but nothing in-depth.
The reason I ask is that my download install doesn't sound
anything like what's described on some of the sites I
visited. They say that the install will extract several
files and put an icon in the control panel. Well,I have a
single file,tweakui.exe, and no icon in control panel. Can
someone point me in the right direction?

thanx

Biff

The XP version doesn't install itself in Control Panel, its on the Start
Menu in Powertoys for Windows XP.

See http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 1 for a small REG
file that will add it to the Control Panel.
