    I know I saw in one of the other threads about if xyz was removed or disabled you would no longer have a history in things like run and I was thinking it search2 but I guess not.
    The good news is that the answer is posted in one of the threads here from the last few weeks, the bad of course is which one. Do a search for history in the Windows 10 subforum and you will find the answer.
    Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

    you dont need to use the registry, just go to settings in Edge then click on the View Advanced Settings and it'll have to option to change the search to whatever you want.:D

    is there a way to create reg.file which will replace usual method to avoid pass in logon process (I mean netplwiz).
    It has to be something like

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
    "AutoAdminLogon"="1"
    "DefaultUserName"="name"
    "DefaultPassword"="pass"
    The problem is that when I implemented this reg file to my iso file at the first login Win10 ask me for credentials and even doesnt recognize my name and pass???
    Any solution? Thanks in advance!

    How about from Autounattend.xml on the root of the iso?
    At minimum you would need this in your Autounattend.xml:
    Just fill in this part:
    Also since my post count isn't high enough to post links to make sure to fix the:
    That's on there twice

    Lots of good tweaks I put together in this single Registry file. You will need to take ownership of the Key that changes Quick Access first, though.

    I noticed that if you turn off "Most used apps" - the ones that show up in top left of Start menu - that the Run dialogue loses its memory. Weird, and I'd like to keep the Run autosuggest without the recent (cr)apps, but reg setting from Windows 7 doesn't work anymore.

    Thanks.
    I did something similar by creating a desktop shortcut to boot to recovery, but your solution is more elegant :).

    I've added this to my script, with credit to you (I used a built-in icon):

    Code:
    *** Win10 - Add "Reboot to Recovery" to right-click menu of "This PC" (credit goes to Sliden from MDL forums) ***
    C:\Windows\System32\setaclx64 -on "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell" -ot reg -actn setowner -ownr "n:Administrators" -rec yes
    C:\Windows\System32\setaclx64 -on "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell" -ot reg -actn ace -ace "n:Administrators;p:full" -rec yes
    reg add "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Reboot to Recovery" /v "Icon" /t REG_SZ /d %SystemRoot%\System32\imageres.dll,-110" /f
    reg add "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\shell\Reboot to Recovery\command" /ve /d "shutdown.exe -r -o -f -t 00" /f
    Tested & working on Win8.1 and Win10.
    Cheers.
