Ultimate Windows Tweaker does not provide a help system. but dragging the mouse over some of the check boxes it shows a “NOT so small” help at the bottom. But lets see…. I’m pointing the mouse over:

1) In Performance->Disable superfetch Service
“Superfetch is a feature that attempts to determine which application you will launch and then loads up all the necessary files a….. ” …a… WHAT????

2) Performance->Increase Priority Of IRQ8
“IRQ stands for interrupt Request Line over which a device can interrupt the normal flow of data to the processor. IRQ8 is respon,,,,,, ” …. respon…… WHAT??????
also it is “… priority of IRQ8” not “…priority Of IRQ8”

3) Performance->Turn Off Search Indexer
“Search indexer is a windows feature that handles indexing of files for windows Search, which fuels the files search engine. This ….” … This WHAT????????

I’m sure there are a lot of other examples like those ones.

Since I cannot resize UWT window I also cannot see the remaining of the explanation/help.
I can’t believe no one (even the developper) did see this before!!!

Make your choice of cursor permanent so it doesn’t return to the default one when you change themes or restart Windows 10.5. I use Ultimate Windows Tweak 4,5.

I would like to alter the default app setup to edit text files. No matter what I do, it always reverts back to notepad.

I'm on Windows 10 version 1809, using UWT v 4.5.0.0 and on the Customization screen, Windows 10 tab, there's an option to "Hide Windows Defender Icon from Notification Area." It starts as defaulted to checked. After a lot of searching and narrowing down the problem, whether you check or uncheck it, the Windows Defender icon disappears from the Notification Area on reboot and all the in-Windows options to bring it back don't work. It looks like you change the registry entry for "SecurityHealth" in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun" from "%windir%system32SecurityHealthSystray.exe" to "%ProgramFiles%Windows DefenderMSASCuiL.exe," which may be the problem. I exported the original branch and imported it after UWT4 and the Defender icon came back. Hope this helps if this is a bug. Thanks for your awesome program!

In reply to Alan. On the Customization screen, under the File Explorer tab, there's a blue button about 2/3 of the way down the left side that says, "Remove Shortcut Arrows from Shortcut Icons." Click it.
