Ako ste instalirali VMWare na hostu koga pokreće Windows 7, primetićete korisnika _vmware_user prilikom logovanja na računar i da tog korisnika ne možete ukloniti iz Control Panela.

Mene je ovo jako živciralo ali sam pronašao rešenje, jednostavno editovanje Registry-ja.

1. Otvorite Registry Editor i pronađite HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
2. Ako ne postoji, napravite novi key pod nazivom SpecialAccounts
3. Ispod SpecialAccounts key napravite još jedan key pod nazivom UserList
4. Napravite DWORD vrednost (DWORD32 na x64) unutar UserList sa imenom  __vmware_user__ (ime naloga koji želimo da sakrijemo) i proverite da je vrednost 0
5. Zatvorite Registry Editor i to je to, nema potrebe za reboot-om

Da bi ste ovu vrednost dodali brže i lakše dodajte ovo u Run:

x86:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList" /v __vmware_user__ /d 0 /t REG_DWORD /f

x64:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList" /v __vmware_user__ /d 0 /t REG_DWORD32 /f

Evo, priznajem, nisam zaposlen u Microsoftu! Majke mi!

Haha, sigurno se mislite “Šta ovaj priča )=!$$*?!” ali ne, ja nisam lud, samo se malo šalim.

Pa ovako, definitivno sam počeo ljude da “navlačim” na Windows 7, zato što je sistem stvarno odličan, iako je beta!

Ja sam isprobao sistem po preporuci prijatelja Jiash-a iz Malezije i tada sam se oduševio! Najbolji Microsoftov OS ikada! Eh, od tada krećem i ja da smaram ljude da instaliraju Win7.

U Majdanpeku sam “naterao” par ljudi da instalira i utisak je bio “WOW”, a takođe sam uticao na Dragana Milovanovića a.k.a cooler84 i na Miloša Ćukovića, a šta mislite, kakav je utisak bio? Pa “WOW” naravno!

I eto, ovaj tekst nije nešto preterano koristan tj. nije uopšte koristan, čak je i glup ( xD ), ali mi je bilo dosadno pa rek’o red je i neki offtopic da bacim!

Budite mi pozdravljeni!

In this text i will write about my very first impressions with Microsoft’s new OS – Windows 7 and simple tutorial how to remove anoying “Send Feedback” links and also Windows Beta Watermark, which is, i must be honest, ugly.

First of all, first Windows 7 impressions

Few weeks ago, i downloaded Windows 7 x64 Beta from official Microsoft download page.

I started install process on my brand new computer (Q6600, 4GB RAM, ATi HD4850) and it went very well.

Next, how about some drivers, codecs and programs that i usually use? OK, no problem!

Hm, problems with my network! Win7 doesnt recognize my network adapter so i ran installation of Vista driver, and it started working, and it still working…

I downloaded BETA ATi Catalyst driver from ATi’s official support page, installed – everything works great.

What about sound drivers for my GA-EP43-DS3 motherboard (Realtek HD Audio)? Problems! Damn!

Theres no good Win7 support from Realtek/GA so i just installed my old, dusty, SB Audigy! and windows installed drivers in a few seconds, automatically, and i got my sound running.

OK, driver section cleared, now, how about some codecs? I downloaded K-Lite Codec Pack, installed, everything worked just fine.

No problems with programs, too, everything worked cool, like: MSN, ICQ, Skype, GTalk, Firefox, Adobe Premiere Pro 1.5, Photoshop CS3, Dreamweaver CS3 etc.

I must admit, Win7 is using less system resources than Vista! Just look at the picture:

As far as i remember Vista Ultimate SP1 x64 was @3.20GB of RAM and CPU was @10% all time!

That was my first, very first, impression of Win7 x64, and here is a screenshot of my desktop:

I promised that i will post a tutorial for removing anoying “Send Feedback” links and Windows Beta Watermark, so:

How to remove “Send Feedback” link and Windows Beta Watermark in Windows 7

Windows 7 is still beta software and Microsoft want you to know that, so they added a Watermark on Desktop inside this new OS. Also, they want to hear what people, testers of this beta version, think about this OS and thats the reson for “Send Feedback” link in almost every window.

For start, lets remove watermark!

Everything you need to do is to download this small and simple tool and to run it “as administrator” (right click on file > run as administrator)! Don’t forget to choose which version of Windows 7 u use: x86 or x64!

Watermark Removal Tool for Windows 7 [Download]

The part with Watermark Removal is done, don’t forget that you must restart your computer first if you want changes to apply.

“Send Feedback” link removal process.

1. Click on the Start button (Start Menu)
2. Click on “Run” or just use combination of Win + R buttons (u dont need to follow the first step!)
3. Enter “regedit” (without quotes) into Run window and click OK
4. Now find “HKEY_Current_User\Control Panel\Desktop” in Regedit
5. Double click on “FeedBackToolEnabled”
6. Change values from “3″ to “0″

If its hard for you to work in Regedit, or you are scared of screwing up something, you can download Send Feedback Removal Tool.

And that part of the process is done!

Now, you can enjoy your Desktop without “Send Feedback” links and Windows Beta Watermark!

Zatrebao mi je telnet klijent i kada sam želeo da ga pokrenem video sam da “telnet” komanda u command prompt-u ne postoji, takođe sam to primetio i na Visti, te sam se bacio na pretragu.

Da bi ste uključili Telnet Client, trebate da pratite ovo kratko i veoma jednostavno uputstvo:

• Otvorite Control Panel
• Idite u “Programs”
• Sada u “Programs” prozoru, sa leve strane, pronađite “turn windows features on or off” i kliknite jednom
• Nađite “Telnet Client” u novootvorenom prozoru i štiklirajte ga
• Kliknite na OK i restartujte računar
• Uživajte u Telnet Klijentu

Windows 7 Beta je možda trenutno slobodan za download i korišćenje, i radi veoma dobro. Ali, i dalje je to BETA softver. A to znači da:

• Microsoft želi da podseti korisnike da trenutno koriste BETA verziju softvera
• Kompanija se nada dobrom odzivu feedback-ova kako bi učinili finalnu verziju što boljom.

Microsoft je stavio watermark u donjem desnom uglu desktopa u kome piše “Windows 7 For testing purposes only”, i skoro svaka sistemska aplikacija ima “Send Feedback” link u gornjem desnom uglu prozora.

Ako imate neki zanimljiv feedback za Microsoft, trebate kliknuti na taj link, ali takođe možete poslati feedback tako što će te kliknuti na “Send Feedback” ikonicu koju Windows 7 automatski instalira na vašem desktopu, ili jednostavno možete ukucati “feedback” u Windows Search.

Znači, ako vam nije potreban konstantan podsetnik, ili nemate nameru da pošaljete feedback, u daljem tekstu pročitajte kako da uklonite taj link. Takođe ću vam opisati kako da se otarasite “For testing purposes only” watermark-a.

Za početak, hajde da uklonimo watermark.

Sve što je potrebno da preuzmete mali program i da ga obavezno pokrenete kao administrator (desni klik na fajl – run as administrator)! Obavezno izaberite i verziju Windowsa koju koristite – 32bit-nu ili 64bit-nu.

Uklanjanje Watermarka – Download

Deo sa watermarkom je završen, nemojte zaboraviti da watermark neće nestati odmah, već tek posle restarta, ali za sada ne restartujte mašinu jer trebamo da uklonimo “Send Feedback” tekst!

Da bi ste uklonili “Send Feedback” link trebate da izmenite neke stavke u Windows Registry-ju:

1. Otvorite Start Menu
2. Kliknite na run i u polje unesite “regedit” (bez navodnika)
3. Pronađite “HKEY_Current_User\Control Panel\Desktop
4. Pronađite sledeći unos sa desne strane: FeedbackToolEnabled
5. Dvoklik na FeedBackToolEnabled
6. Promenite vrednosti sa 3 na 0

Ako vam je teško da sami uradite ovo sa Regeditom, ili se jednostavno plašite da čeprkate po Registry-ju, možete preuzeti .reg fajl koji će automatski ukloniti “Send Feedback” link, bez opasnosti da nešto pogrešite.

Uklanjanje “Send Feedback” Linka – Download

To je to, proces je završen.

Kada restartujete sistem, watermark i “Send Feedback” link ne bi trebali biti tu. Ako želite da ponovo uključite “Send Feedback” link, ponovite proces i vratite vrednosti sa 0 na 3.

Vaš sistem bi trebao da izgleda ovako, bez watermarka i “Send Feedback” linka:

Nadam se da vam je ovaj tutorijal pomogao!

Pre par sati sam instalirao Windows 7 na mojoj novoj mašini i upravo se sada igram…

Instalirao sam osnovne programe, kodeke i drajvere, trebam još malo stvari da instaliram kako bih upotpunio svoj radni prostor.

Evo prvih utisaka:

• Mreža nije radila bez instalacije drajvera
• Integrisana Realtek zvučna kartica neće da radi, neki problem sa drajverima, ali je zato tu stara dobra SB Audigy!
• Sve ostalo je radilo bez drajvera

“Sedmica” koristi dosta manje resursa od “Gliste” i mnogo brže “odgovara” na zadate operacije.

Desktop:

A evo i screenshot-a Task Manager-a:

Generalno, veoma sam zadovoljam beta izdanjem “Sedmice” i očekujem da će finalna verzija biti još bolja od ove!

Nastaviću da koristim Windows 7 kao primarni Operativni Sistem.

Uskoro možda neki duži review…
