Quick Restart

Some Registry changes require restarting Windows before the

changes take effect. However, there's a way to reinitialize

your Registry and refresh your Desktop without fully restarting

the OS. Save your work, then press Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up

the Windows task list. Select the Explorer entry and click on

End Task. If the Shutdown screen appears, click on Cancel. After

a few seconds an error message will appear. Click on End Task,

and Windows Explorer will reload with any new Registry settings.
