This tweak is useful when you regularly access a folder and want to avoid subsequent clicks to access the folder. The new view can easily show your own special folder in the my computer and let you access it at a single click. For this do the following: 1)create a key '{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}' in "hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\mycomputer\namespace\" 2)create a key '{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}' in "hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\" 2.1)update the data value of 'default' with the folder name that you want to display. 2.2)create a string value name 'infotip' and set the value you want to show as going with the mouse of the entry. 3) create a key defaulticon in [hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}] 3.1) update the data value of 'default' with shell32.dll,4. 4) create a key inprocserver32 in [hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}] 4.1) update the data value of default with 'shdocvw.dll'. 4.2) create a string 'threadingmodel' and set the value with 'apartment'. 5) create a key instance in [hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}] 5.1) update the data value of default with blank. 5.2) create a string clsid and set the value with '{0afaced1-e828-11d1-9187-b532f1e9575d}'. 5.3) create a key initpropertybag in [hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}\instance] 5.3.1) update the data value of default with blank. 5.3.2) create a dword attributes and set the value with '15 (in hexadecimal base)'. 5.3.3) create an string target and set the value with the path of the special folder. 6) create a key 'shellfolder' under [hkey_local_machine\software\classes\clsid\{53076c7e-a813-42d5-bcd9-1203684175b9}]. 6.1) update the data value of default with blank. 6.2) create a dword "attributes" and set the value with 'f8000110 (in hexadecimal base) 6.3) create a string wantsforparsing and leave it blank.
