[Script] Windows 10 TNBT (The next big Tweak) v6.5.6 -official thread-

Odd! I use it in all my scripts that require elevation, and have never run into issues. As far as I can tell, the only real difference is that it uses the architecture appropriate cacls, and uses cmd to launch the vbs script created.

Perhaps a conflict with something else, or it didn't get copied correctly?
regardless, if you change

Code:

set params = %*:"=""
echo UAC.ShellExecute "cmd.exe", "/c ""%~s0"" %params%", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"

back to

Code:

echo UAC.ShellExecute "%~s0", "", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"

it should work, seems whatever is causing the issue doesn't like that cmd launch.

As you said, it's not -necessary- but it is nice to use the appropriate method. *shrug*

Thanks for taking my input into mind though! like I said, project definitely has potential.

 

thanks for keeping it updated

 

Hmm. So I just noticed in some of my VM's that some OS's I'm using have 64-bit registry files present, and some do not. And those which do, still have the 32-bit registry present(who knows which is actually used, but the point is that all we're doing is checking if we have access to a particular file that we know exists) So the only check you'd really have to do is for CACLS..

Code:

IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" EQU "amd64" (
IF EXIST "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\cacls.exe" (
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\system"
) ELSE (
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\system"
))

(or if you wanted to be REALLY thorough, you could do a full check)

Code:

IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" EQU "amd64" (
IF EXIST "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\cacls.exe" (
IF EXIST "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\config\system" (
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\config\system"
) ELSE (
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\system"
)) ELSE (
>nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\config\system"
))

Sorry about that. I hadn't thought of the possibility that the OS may not have those files present, but would have 64-bit CACLS present.
Since we didn't have a check in there at all, it would just keep trying..

Hello.

Code:

Scheduled Tasks Tweaks:
- Disables all default Windows tasks

is this really good thing to do?

 

Did OP abandon ship?

 

Cant write on Microsoft Edge or Wifi Settings

After apply the option Scheduled Tasks Tweaks i cant write in edge browser or if i have to write wifi password.

If i restore scheduled task everything its working again.

Thanks for your time and this great script.

 

super super super super

 

I will try and inform you asap.

Thanks for your time.

 

You should not have hower taskbar/start menu delay put on 0, it causes mess and programs supporting hower function cannot be clicked on since hower is remoed instant, i suggest 100ms as default also let people decide if they want windows audio back.

 

Hi there, I used your script but there is something I wish it wouldn't do. How can I exempt it from disabling local search (files only) in windows 10?
May I know the correct registry so that I can use file search when I enable scheduled task tweak?

Thnx in advance.
