REMove lines out of ./wine/system.reg

Post by keiffee »

Before i do anything i would like to know if i can remove these lines from the system.reg


[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Telephony\\Country List\\...........

There are loads of them in here. As i will only be using the UK 0044 code is there any point in the rest of them.

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\Time Zones\\.......

There are loads of these in here. As i am not going to move out of the UK is there any point in the rest of them.

[Software\\Microsoft\\DirectPlay\\Service Providers\\Modem Connection For DirectPlay] 1206227651
"DescriptionA"="Modem Connection For DirectPlay"
"DescriptionW"="Modem Connection For DirectPlay"
"dwReserved1"=dword:00000000
"dwReserved2"=dword:00000000
"Guid"="{44EAA760-CB68-11cf-9C4E-00A0C905425E}"
"Path"="dpmodemx.dll"


As i am very going to have a modem on this PC or running any apps that run under wine using a modem would this be ok to remove?

[Software\\Microsoft\\DirectPlay\\Service Providers\\Serial Connection For DirectPlay] 1206227651
"DescriptionA"="Serial Connection For DirectPlay"
"DescriptionW"="Serial Connection For DirectPlay"
"dwReserved1"=dword:00000000
"dwReserved2"=dword:00000000
"Guid"="{0F1D6860-88D9-

As this PC / Server is not going to have comms (except network), Could i take this line out ???????

Why don't you try that on windows first? Also why do you want to do things like that? All the entries there for a reason. If you don't know the reason - don't touch is. Simple right?

It doesn't hurt to have those lines. Don't tell me you spend the
entire day reading the whole system.reg file @_@...

Yep i did, all day

and i guess its just that if i see code in a file that is not needed i do like to ask the Q as to why i need it?. I have just got it in my mind that if a config file is small that it might run faster.

Sad i know.
