Option to show Settings changes as registry keys

[tired-it]

I have taken an interest in exploring the internal workings of Windows via tweaks using registry changes, GPOs and powershell scripts. I do not know how NTLite applies its settings changes, but most of them seemingly can be done via registry modifications.

So my request is to give the user an option to see how NTLite applies some of its changes. I'm curious to see what keys, if any, the program uses to make changes with. This would be mainly a visual change with little use to the average user, but I suspect the extra information can help with debugging certain tweaks?

Almost every one of NTLite's Settings tweaks are derived from well known reg settings, which can be found in many Windows guides or popular sites like TenForums and Elevenforum.

If you want to know what a specific tweak does, look in the preset and Google that tweak's internal name. It will match a reg setting that is already known to the world. NTLite will update the image's offline registry hives to implement changes.

Each of the different modding methods will end up in the same results. Whether they're updated by importing a reg file, using "reg add/delete" commands, GPO's or scripts. If you have a reg file from a source, it can be imported under the Registry screen.

I had a discussion with nuhi a few years back, about adding URL links to some of the tweak's footnotes but I don't think he moved ahead with that idea. The links would lead to an authorative MS doc (if it existed) or to a popular Ten/Elevenforum tutorial that's well visited.

I appreciate the insight. I am well aware of the usefulness of the 10/11Forums as well as the admx.help sites for learning about tweaks. My suggestion was to make things easier for the user by having the information within the program itself. Though links might be even better.

NTLite made it's business by compiling those tweaks. They are not just giving their hard work away for free.

There is a lot more to NTLite than just those tweaks. This suggestion is 1 part learning, 2 parts for troubleshooting information. I already paid for a license regardless.
