Do I have to create the key xfilt or should it already be there? And then is Parameter0 supposed to be a sub key with the default data set to 0x80000000? Or what? I can't get it to work. I do have it in ControlSet002 but it's under xfilt/Parameters text/html 2008-11-22T22:47:02-05:00 noor sad http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/?o=20#548665 <br /> To Enable hot-plug filter but hide safe-remove icon ( i386 platform ):<br /> <br /> Add and set registry: “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\xfilt\Parameter0”<br /> <br /> To DWORD value “0x80000000”<br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> To enable hot-plug filter and also shows safe-remove icon ( i386 platform ):<br /> <br /> Add and set registry “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\xfilt\Parameter0”<br /> <br /> To DWORD value “0x80000001”<br /> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> <br /> To Enable hot-plug filter but hide safe-remove icon ( x64 platform ):<br /> <br /> Add and set registry: “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\xfiltx64\Parameter0”<br /> <br /> To DWORD value “0x80000000”<br /> <br /> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> <br /> To enable hot-plug filter and also shows safe-remove icon ( x64 platform ):<br /> <br /> Add and set registry “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\xfiltx64\Parameter0”<br /> <br /> To DWORD value “0x80000001”<br /> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> To disable hot-plug filter, set “Parameter0” to zero value.<br /> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> <br /> Nour<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> text/html 2008-11-15T19:22:53-05:00 TamTheBam http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#548168 <br /> Sweet McFly. I wrote a thread about this years ago, probably before Fords, and<br /> no one came up with an answer. Nice thread revived, and I used it just now and<br /> works with Vista so that's a bonus!<br /> <br /> Cheers...<br /> <br /> Tam... text/html 2008-11-15T19:01:18-05:00 McFly http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#548167 Old thread, but I've been using this for a while now (works on Vista and XP):<br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://www.iconremover.com/" target="_blank">http://www.iconremover.com/</a><br /> <br /> Just run it on startup with <b>/hideapp /removeicon /closeapp</b> and it will do the trick. Terminates itself when it's done so you don't have a program running constantly in the background. text/html 2006-08-13T18:29:11-05:00 Ira Jacobs http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#438402 I've got the same &quot;problem&quot; with my SATA drive. I tried the SafelyRemove program, but that's more of a workaround and is an extra program running in the background - not a very good option. There has got to be some way to do it through Windows, perhaps somewhere in the registry. Any ideas? text/html 2005-07-28T07:23:41-05:00 Michael A. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#305310 &quot;One thing I found that the &quot;Always Hide&quot; trick doesn't work on is unused LAN connections. Everytime the computer is rebooted, the connection is unhidden.&quot;<br /> <br /> This is why I disable inactive LAN connections. They aren't being use anyway, right? <img src="/images/smilies/smile1.gif" width="14" height="14" border="0" alt=":)" title=":)"> text/html 2005-07-28T01:05:29-05:00 FordGT90Concept http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#305212 It would still be there but it would be pictureless. Also, Windows might not like that one bit. text/html 2005-07-28T01:04:12-05:00 SiB http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#305211 What if you found the icon file if it has one seperately and deleted it?

It's not only annoying forme, but it prevents my hard drive MP3 player from working unless I disable my printer and modem at startup and reboot.<br /> I installed that thing ^^, and went onto options and clicked disable the icon in the system tray and it did disappear, but does it just hide it.... and so will my mp3 player now work. I'll answer in a mo.<br /> <br /> *edit* tried it, my mp3 player still wont work. When i restart, the &quot;safely remove hardware&quot; icon is still in the system tray. text/html 2005-07-27T00:34:52-05:00 Mothow http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#304745 Try this it will disdable it<br /> <a class="ext" href="/action/r/http://safelyremove.com/safelyremovesetup.zip" target="_blank">http://safelyremove.com/safelyremovesetup.zip</a> text/html 2005-07-16T16:47:23-05:00 FordGT90Concept http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/45377/#300719 One thing I found that the &quot;Always Hide&quot; trick doesn't work on is unused LAN connections.
