Solved Need some default Vista x64 registry keys...

Tiffanys · Jun 11, 2013

I used a reg file here recently and didn't think to back up my registry keys first and my only system restore is days ago before I upgraded my Photoshop so it'd be inconvenient to say the least. The changes aren't that big of a deal to begin with, but I'd like to undo them since they're interfering with another method of what I'm trying to do. Anywho, these are the keys I added:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe"="WINXPSP2"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe"="WINXPSP2"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.BMP]
@="BMPImage.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BMPImage.Document\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\imageres.dll,-70"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\BMPImage.Document\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe C:\\Windows\\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.GIF]
@="GIFImage.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GIFImage.Document\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\imageres.dll,-71"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GIFImage.Document\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe C:\\Windows\\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.JPG]
@="JPGImage.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JPGImage.Document\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\imageres.dll,-72"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JPGImage.Document\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe C:\\Windows\\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.PNG]
@="PNGImage.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PNGImage.Document\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\imageres.dll,-83"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PNGImage.Document\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe C:\\Windows\\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.TIF]
@="TIFImage.Document"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TIFImage.Document\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\System32\\imageres.dll,-70"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TIFImage.Document\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe C:\\Windows\\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

If someone could check their registry (start>run>regedit) and let me know what those keys should be by default I would be really grateful.

Hello Tiffany,

Here are the default registry entries for the first part:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags]


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\rundll32.exe"=-

You can download and merge the .reg files for the listed bmp, gif, jpg, png, and tif options in the tutorial below to restore their default associations and registry entries.

Hope this helps,

Shawn
