Generating Default "Recently Used Programs"

3 New Member
Hi All,

Am generating a new profile by running my standalone application using the API "NetUserAdd ". After logging to the newly created profile , I couldn't see default "Recently Used Programs" in StartMenu where as by Windows newly created profiles Recently Used Programs got displayed.

Note: "Recently Used Programs" items are visible in windows XP and above versions

Kindly let me know if any come across this and what is the resolution.

PS: Recently used programs information is store in HKCU\Microsoft\ Windows\Current Version\explore r\UserAssist\
"{5E6AB780-7743-11CF-A12B-00AA004AE837}\\ Count"
"{75048700-EF1F-11D0-9888-006097DEACF9}\\ Count"

for every application launched from startmenu, values gets added to above registry by ROT13 encryption.

Thanks in advance......

Regards,
Kishore.U

This is a pretty tricky windows question. Have you tried the windows forum? If you still arn't finding anything I'll look and see how it is implemented in Windows CE to see what information can be gained from that.

I'm looking to develop a listbox with in-place editing where as each item is selected, it grows to fit in all the text boxes. When the item is deselected, it shrinks back to its original size. The editing bit is not a problem, but I can't get the selected item to resize, as the listbox does for the "Add/Remove programs". The initial thought I had was to have a handler for the MeasureItem event, then have the condition of whether the...

In your All Programs Menu, some of your programs are in alphabetical order and others are not. This makes it very difficult to seek out a program that may be hidden in a maze of program folders and files. The solution is simple: have the computer re-sort the menu. When you install new programs, Windows XP tacks them to the end of your All Programs menu, rather than inserting them in the correct alphabetical order. So every so often you have...

When is it appropriate to use "volatile" keyword? The docs simply state: " The volatile modifier is usually used for a field that is accessed by multiple threads without using the lock Statement (C# Reference) statement to serialize access. " But when is it better to use "volatile" instead of "lock" ?

Hi: I would like recommendations for books (in any language, not necessarily C++, C, python) which have walkthroughs for developing a big software project ?

I first learned about OO from Java. I much prefer to program in Python though. However I am consufed about 2 things. 1. Why do I have to pass self into every method in a class? Since I am always doing why cant this be automated or abstracted away? Are the instances where I won't pass self? I imagine there is some tradeoff involved otherwise it would have been

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Dear forum friends, With the development of smart home technology, a variety of wireless communication protocols have appeared on the market, such as Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. Each protocol has its own unique characteristics and advantages, but as a user who is planning to build a smart home system, I am a bit confused by the choice of these technologies.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
