I use WVHPSP1 and even though I disable Smooth Scrolling in Advanced Settings, it does not actually disable it. So after using TweakUI in this way, it works. Just as easily you can renable it the same way in reverse. However, none of the other features it has to offere do anything. But at least this one item can be handled.

Galt Thu, 12 Jul 2007 19:30:57 +0000 http://neosmart.net/blog/2007/tweakui-for-vista/#comment-30444 OK, I, for one, understand that you made a simple enough mistake - and all the haters above need to learn to relax and take a chill pill. It is a wonder how so many people chime in to say something doesn't work on their computer, but never take the time to realize that, unless they are running a comletely new install of the OS, with *absolutely no alterations from default*, then they still have at least 5 different versions that could be running, and that, in and of itself, will make for some differences across the board. Add to that the fact that most people rarely have systems that are identical in terms of hardware *and* software, and it should be obvious that what works for you might not (ever) work for me. That being said, thanks for at least attempting to get it to work in Vista. I prefer not ot have to pay for TweakVI, but am haunted by what I may be missing out - I wish that, at least, TotalIdea would put "descriptions" of what the 'missing' plugins do. I used to be a *big* fan of X-Teq's X-Setup, right until they decided to go shareware - I can understand the need to possibly make a *little* money off the venture, but to go completely commercial was a bad move in my eyes, especially as a lot of plugins were not 'developed' by X-Teq, but were simply conglomerations of items already prevalent in the Net, and more plugins were develped directly by 3rd parties. I say that it would take little time of *one* person to conglomerate all the ideas and tweaks and publish them in an easy to use format, but the bandwidth involved in watching millions (or more) of people actually download / read such a document is probably out of most people's budget. The Geek has a *lot* of tweaks, and although some of his categories contain duplicate tweaks, I have learned a *lot* from visitng every page, even if I never plan on using the tweak. So, back to TweakUI - you mentioned something about developing an app to make it work or at least partially - any progress on said app?

We’re currently working on a (free) app that will allow you to run TweakUI for real this time :)

Like I mentioned above, it's working on one of my PCs and not on another. Tonight I am going to format this machine that currently works, and I'll try to reinstall TweakUI in XP Compatibility mode. Should it fail, I'll take this post down. NeoSmart Technologies isn't trying to cheat anyone out of a solution nor are we attempting to generate download counts for any application here – this was a solution that <em>worked</em> right here on this machine; which has been <em>upgraded</em> to Vista RTM from the beta builds. Check back tomorrow. We'll find out soon :) There is nothing “sneaky” going on here, that’s not the way we work.
