control panel

[exodus300]

I like the fancy control panel which only shows some options, but it doesn't show all the ones i'd like it to. Is there somewhere (in the registry?) where control panel looks to see which items to show in this view, that I can change to show the items I want? [Thanks in advance|Hope I helped you]

to find more icons:
Click on the Start button
Click on Settings
Click on Control Panel
If only a few Control Panel options are listed, click on view all Control Panel options on left-hand side

before doing the below I'd make sure to remeber what your changing!

Open your registry and find the key below.

For each applet you want to hide create a new string value and call it the filename of the applet to be hidden (for example 'fax.cpl'). Set the value to equal 'No' to hide the applet or 'Yes' to display it.

Exit the registry and either logout or restart Windows.

Key:[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\don't load]
Data Type: REG_SZ
Data:'Yes' or 'No'

"...that I can change to show the items I want?"

Are you saying you want to add some icons that aren't already there? What items?
