Softwares to Tweak Windows XP

with 12 comments

If you can’t get enough of the default options in Windows XP, and want to tweak it to the utmost level without getting into the registry and messing up with stuff, you could download any one of the following software that let you tweak Windows XP easily:

TweakUI

TweakUI gives you access to modify settings that necessarily cannot be changed in Windows XP. Over a hundred default settings can be modified by using the TweakUI Control Panel Applet. Integrating very well with the default interface, this tool is very lightweight as well.

FreshUI

FreshUI comes from the makers of Fresh Diagnose, and is a separate program that can be downloaded here. It lets you tweak lots of settings than TweakUI, and is great for users who’re a bit advanced. You can restore the modifications you’ve made with a single click. Its scope is more wide than TweakUI.

  8. If I uninstall these programs after tweaking will the tweaks remain or will the settings revert to the original?

  9. Actually I have used TweakUI quite a few times. It has some really useful tweaks and is probably the most popular of the tweaking utilities.
