If the above win7 modification doesnt take care of your Point2, could you elaborate more on this 2nd Point. Im sure there should be some way to take care of that as well Cheers ;) Regards, sandy @Josh

Hey if you 'dont want a delay' in the Window max/minimize you could disable the below animation option-

Right Click on My Computer > Click on System Properties
Click on "Advanced System Settings" (Left side pane)
Click on the "Advanced" tab
Now Click on "Settings" under Performance group
Remove Checkbox for "Animate windows when minimizing and maximzing"
Hit "Apply"

(You dont have to log off/restart)

The maximizing/minimizing will now be "instant"

Now regarding your 2nd point, i kinda infer its the same as the first point that you have mentioned.

If the above win7 modification doesnt take care of your Point2, could you elaborate more on this 2nd Point. Im sure there should be some way to take care of that as well

Cheers ;)

I tried "0" decimal for instant reaction, didn't work. Then I tried "4000" for 4 seconds, just to test, still didn't work. Restarted in after each change. Spelled the dword correctly. Double-checked the right location. Did I miss something? Let me know if you have any ideas. The interface is starting to piss me off. Can help you help me with these other things too? 1. Windows maximize/minimize time, I don't want a delay. 2. Double-clicking an app in the taskbar while it's minimized doesn't maximize/minimize. There's a delay before you minimize it again. I don't want that delay. It doesn't work. I tried "0" decimal for instant reaction, didn't work. Then I tried "4000" for 4 seconds, just to test, still didn't work. Restarted in after each change.

That would make aero peak as good as completely useless because you'd need to hover over for ages to get it to show. I would prefer it to be the same time as the aero thumbnails when you hover over the icons in the taskbar because then it will do it instantly when you want to show desktop and take advantage of the feature, but won't be too long so that have to wait for ages. Other than that, it's a great tutorial because you've shown us which registry key it is to change this setting. Why would you want to change the delay to 4 seconds?
