What is Tweak UI? Tweak UI is a user customization utility with which one can modify the appearance and behavior of many aspects of the Windows user interface (UI). The original Tweak UI for Win95 is one of the "PowerToys" developed by the Windows 95 Development Team in their spare time. The version available here is 1.33 which can be used under Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT and Windows 2000. Pretty much everything that Tweak UI does can be done manually by editing the Windows Registry, what Tweak does is to offer an easier and safer method of performing these common "Registry hacks". Installing Tweak UI Simply download and double-click on TWEAKUI.EXE, follow the prompts Note: Those with the initial release of Windows 98 can find a slightly older version of Tweak UI than this included within the Windows 98 Resource Kit Sampler tools in the \tools\reskit\powertoy folder on their Win98 CD (Microsoft opted not to include Tweak with Win98 Second Edition). To install that version find the TWEAKUI.INF file, Right-Click on it and Click Install. Using Tweak UI |

Tweak UI includes a Windows Help file (TWEAKUI.HLP) which includes complete details on the options supported by Tweak UI. Users of previous versions of Tweak UI will find a number of new options.

While perfectly safe if used properly when used to make changes that the user does not fully understand there is always at least the potential for problems. Use Tweak UI with caution and use it at your own risk.
