send-feedback

After the Public Release of Windows 7 by Microsoft i was tempted to try it out, Along with millions of other people i also downloaded and installed Windows 7 on my PC and so far its looking bloody great.

If you have also downloaded and installed Windows 7 on your PC you would have seen the Send Feedback link on the top of every Window although its a very good feature to send your feedback to Microsoft but after sometime it gets a bit irritating and i kept clicking it by mistake. So i wondered if there was some way to remove this link and as expected there was one.

To remove the Windows 7 Send Feedback Link follow the following steps:

(1) Run the Registry Editor (type regedit on the start run menu)

(2) Browse to the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop

(3) If it’s not already there, add a new DWORD (32-bit) value “FeedbackToolEnabled” and set its data field to 0.

(4) Restart PC and it will be gone !
