If you have ever worked with touchscreen computers, you will certainly understand how much of a pain it is to try and double-click a desktop icon without dragging it. As I have many kiosks in my environment currently, I hunted down how to enable the single-click option by pushing a couple registry updates with GPO (see comment by Sergio Calderón here). The registry updates are as follows:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
Action: Update Key Path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer Value Name: ShellState Value Type: REG_BINARY Value Data: 240000001828000000000000000000000000000001000000120000000000000022000000 Action: Update Key Path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer Value Name: IconUnderline Value Type: REG_DWORD Value Data: 00000002 |
The second is optional, it just underlines the icon when is selected. Little quality of life feature.
