MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks

MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks contains over 200 files under 1MB, including registry, PowerShell, Visual Basic, shortcuts, and batch files to enable tweaks and hidden features in Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7 for any skill level.

One neat thing about MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks is that many of these are hidden, removed, or unavailable settings and features in Windows. You can browse the collection and delete or move any tweaks you like and create a custom collection of your favorite tweaks.

To date, we have released all the scripts as open source; however, our user interface is NOT open source. If you would like to access the whole collection of tweaks and a wickedly sweet interface to browse and apply the tweaks, check out our page here: https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/majorgeeks_registry_tweaks.html

Most of the tweaks are tested in Windows 10 & 11, but many will also work in Windows 7 and 8. As always, be sure to back up your registry first.

Whenever possible, the file listing pages include directions to make the changes yourself. Every folder contains MajorGeeks Tutorial Link.html to see instructions or details on that particular tweak.

For registry files, double-click the file you need.

Click Yes when prompted by User Account Control. Click Yes when prompted by Registry Editor.

Click OK when prompted by the Registry Editor.

While this collection is 95% registry files, there are a handful of batch and PowerShell scripts:

For batch file, right-click on the batch file and click on Run as administrator. For Powershell scripts, right-click and click on Run with Powershell.

majorgeeks-windows-tweaks's Issues

Incorrect description of the tweak

In the Hide Scroll Bars in Windows 10 Apps - Disable or Enable Automatically tweak description from another tweak

Poor maintenance. Please update GitHub!

If you're going to include a reference to this repo on your description page for the Windows Tweaks, why do you not update the GitHub repo first and foremost?!? Your updates (if following any kind of workflow similar to professional development) should be here first, regardless, before seeing updated download links or references on any production website. Your last update to this repo (as of this issue's submission) was in March of 2023. The latest update to the same download (on your website) is in June of 2023. The versioning has been incremented by a minor from 2.95 to 2.96.

PS. I love the collection of tweaks and am very surprised by your continued additions and maintenance. However, had I not been paying attention, I would have missed the fact that you've got an updated version on your website with NO UPDATE here. Very odd workflow. Please remove the reference to GitHub or add a comment that you're no longer maintaining this repo if that's your preference (so we know what's up with which source is the best to check for updates). Thanks!

Request - Disable confrimation dialog if Delete file from LAN drives (sharing)

Hi Dev, do you can add tweak for Disable file if delete from LAN drives (sharing) confrim dialog ?

When I want to delete a file from a shared folder, a confirmation of deleting the file is displayed and I can't find how to turn off this feature.
