How to Disable or Inactive All of Annoying Windows Logon Warning Message in Windows Home Server


How to Disable or Inactive All of Annoying Windows Logon Warning Message in Windows Home Server? There’s nothing more annoying to me than getting a new laptop from work and having to click through the logon warning message set by the IT department. It usually goes something like “Warning: You are logging onto our computer system. We own your soul.

Removing this message isn’t all that difficult, but you will need administrator access to your system.



Manual Registry Method
Open up regedit.exe through the run box, and then browse down to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon



On the right-hand side, find the keys for LegalNoticeCaption and LegalNoticeText and either set both values to blank or just delete them.

Note: If the administrator has set these values through group policy, I believe they will be re-applied automatically by the system at some point. Either way, the group policy key that contains the same values is here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system

I realize there are some irritating legal reasons for having this message, but it really gets old after a while.

How to Use Search and Replace Specific Formatting (fonts, styles,etc) in Microsoft Word

How to Use Search and Replace Specific Formatting (fonts, styles,etc) in Microsoft Word? If you’ve ever worked on a document originally created by somebody else, you’ll most likely immediately be frustrated by their horrible choice of fonts and formatting. What you might not realize is that the search and replace functionality in Word allows you to replace more than just text.

You can easily search and replace all bolded or italicized text in a document, for instance. Or you could remove that ugly Heading 2 style they used… what were they thinking using bright red?

Open up the Find and Replace dialog from the menus, or just use the Ctrl+H or Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut.



Click in the blank Find box, and then you can use the regular keyboard shortcuts to specify specific formatting. For instance, if you wanted to replace all bolded text with regular text, you’d use Ctrl+B in the “Find what” box, or for italics you would use Ctrl+I. You can even use multiple search criteria here.

If you have styles that are more difficult to replace with simple keyboard shortcuts, you can click the “More” button on the lower left-hand side to show a lot more options.



The “Format” dropdown will give you access to select specific formatting options, like fonts or styles. Just make sure that you first click in the “Find what” box before you select an option.

For the “Replace with”, you’ll need to click in that box first, and then select the options that you want just the same.

How to Create/Add a Shortcut or Hotkey to Eject the CD/DVD Drive in Windows

How to Create/Add a Shortcut or Hotkey to Eject the CD/DVD Drive in Windows? There’s a number of ways to accomplish this, but the best way is to use the NirCmd utility from the excellent Nirsoft. It does a lot more than just eject the cd-rom drive, so be sure to read the information on their site about all the capabilities.

Create a Shortcut to Eject the CD/DVD Drive

Right clicking by mouse on the desktop screen or somewhere else and select New - Shortcut.



In the location box, put the full path to the nircmd.exe file that you downloaded, and append the “cdrom open” command to the end of it, adjusting the drive letter to match your disc drive:

“C:\path\to\nircmd.exe” cdrom open D:

Note the location of the quotes.. if you are using a path with spaces in it, you need to make sure the quotes are only around the path to the executable, and the arguments should be placed after the quote.



Give the shortcut a meaningful name, like Eject CD or something like that, and you’ll have a new icon (read below on how to use the cd-rom icon as shown)



You can shift the symbol to anywhere you want. Double clicking on it will immediately expel the drive.

Create a Shortcut to Close the CD/DVD Drive

You can follow the same exact instructions as above, but instead of “cdrom open” just substitute “cdrom close”.

Assign a Hotkey to the Shortcut

Now that we have a shortcut, we can assign a hotkey to the shortcut by right-clicking on the icon and choosing Properties. On the Shortcut tab you’ll see a place to assign the Shortcut key:



Put in the shortcut key and shut down the dialog box. As long as the hotkey is on your desktop screen you should not have to reboot anything for the shortcut to work. Also you will be able to shift the shortcut to another folder, for occurrence your quick launch bar.

Assign an Icon to the Shortcut

If you click on the Change Icon button in the properties window, you can give the shortcut a more meaningful icon, perhaps the DVD one you see below.



You will be able to select any symbol on the system that you want, of course.
