[help] I Want A Clean Toolbar, How?

I've seen a lot of you guys with the toolbars that only have the icons or pngs in the toolbars without the File menu and so on and I want to achieve the same efffect?

Could someone tell me how to do this?

The only way to really way to do this is via an option in Objectbar, from Stardock.

It also has the option to filter what programs are affected by the effect.

#6293

If you have objectbar it's a breeze.

properties, general options and tick 'hide menu's of application.....etc...'

If you don't own objectbar, Try this:

In regedit:

ctr+F

Find:

{5b4dae26-b807-11d0-9815-00c04fd91972}

rename it to

{-5b4dae26-b807-11d0-9815-00c04fd91972}

the string should be 'Menu Band'.

Hope that works. :)

And for IExplorer.

You need Reshacker

Edit browselc.dll

menu, 267

Delete Resource [Menu : 267 : 1033]

backup the original file though...

#6783

hmm.. well you can back up ur registry before you do that thing, and when u want it back, just merge ur registry or use the back up one.

#6786

Man, this thread is like 2 years old... :blink:

Why dig it up.

#178986

I love you for digging this up!

Been searching the registry for years, to find out how to hide the menu bar, and it's so simple!

personaly i think this should be pinned, its quite a major part of modding windows.

and anyway, i answered a question asked previously, and, it appears helped someone else in the process, so thats 3 reasons. happy? :6 :D

Could it be, that this registry-mod disables your "All Programs"-menu in the start-menu?

i downloaded the reg file (1.reg, 2.reg, 3.reg) and opened them, if thats what your talkin about, my "all programs" menu is still visible in the XP start menu.

#179258

I didn't download anything!

I did what Nobski said

Find:

{5b4dae26-b807-11d0-9815-00c04fd91972}

rename it to

{-5b4dae26-b807-11d0-9815-00c04fd91972}

the string should be 'Menu Band'.

That tweak works, but after that the classic start menu isn't working.
