This outta DiskSpace NAG in Windows XP ihas drove me crazy, theres no need for it anyways...
I have a good reason to let the drive fill completely up(not gonna explain all that - long story).
But can VDS5 make a script solution for this MS NAG BUG !
I appreciate any help at all  (its driving me crazy - tired of clicking its X every 59 seconds.. to get it outta my way.)
Thanks |

Tried something like the following?
| Code: |
%%NagTitle = <Title of error window here>
:Timer
if @WINEXISTS(%%NagTitle)
WINDOW CLOSE,@WINEXISTS(%%NagTitle)
end
:evloop
wait event,1
goto evloop
:Close
exit

You can use a registry entry. Works only for XP.
| Code: |
User Key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer]
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\
Explorer]
Value Name: NoLowDiskSpaceChecks
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: (0 = default, 1 = disable messages)

I searched for the Window name, no luck...
I like the REG method better(no offense)
Since I also searched my REG in XP and found no 'NoLowDiskSpaceChecks' I guess you ment for me to make them...
Does this look like what I'm suposed to do below?
| Code: | REGISTRY WRITE,HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
REGISTRY WRITE,HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NoLowDiskSpaceChecks,1,DWORD |
Not sure if I made any tiny mistakes either in above(please check it for me)
Correction: Sorry FF - but I should have prefex'd them, but just seeing if it basically was what he meant, and then I was gonna get real fancy with it

Your code is close.
You should use "LOCAL" or "CURUSER" instead of HKEY_CURRENT_USER etc.
Try this code:
| Code: | # To affect current user only
REGISTRY WRITE,CURUSER,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer,NoLowDiskSpaceChecks,1,DWORD
# To affect entire OS/all users
REGISTRY WRITE,LOCAL,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer,NoLowDiskSpaceChecks,1,DWORD |
