1. There is an alternate was to turn on Aero in Windows7....but only use this one Build 7000
Click on the Start Button and in the Search box type Aero. Now click on Find and Fix problems with transparency and other visual effects.. Immediately an Aero box will pop up. Click the Advanced link and place a check in the box to automatically fix errors.
No click the Next button and you'll get a progress bar detecting problems. If the results all are checked with none of them failed, then your computer can support Aero. The Aero feature will work immediately, so just choose Close the Troubleshooter.
2. To remove the Send Feedback link on all windows title bars, use this registry script. Copy and paste the info inside the quote into Notepad, choose Save As, then select All Files from the drop-down menu box and type in removeshortcut.reg. Save it to your desktop and double-click on it to merge it intro the registry.
You'll need to restart for it to take effect.
3. I realize Windows Explorer has a Copy To Folder.... and Move To Folder...when you select a folder or file.
This tweak adds Copy To and Move To to the right-click context menu. I use this almost every day. As an example I download all my software to the desktop. then I either install it or use the Move To to send it to my Downloads folder. You can't do this with Explorer's Copy To or Move To for files on the desktop. And it's saves a couple clicks.
It's also possible to add shortcuts to the Send To folder by choosing C:\yourname\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
Copy and paste the info inside the quote into Notepad, choose Save As, then select All Files from the drop-down menu box and type in copytomoveto.reg. Save it to your desktop and double-click on it to merge it intro the registry.
Remeber to change Con textMenuHandlers to ContextMenuHandlers in the script below
