(Default) = C:\Program Files\LitwareInc\LitView.exe,1 The following REG_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ value informs the Start menu of the default icon to display when the user selects Lit View as the Start menu Internet browser. This enables the system to display the correct string based on the currently selected language.

Each language provides a different ResourceDLL.dll.

This enables the same registration to be used for multiple languages. The decimal integer is the ID of a string resource, contained within the specified DLL, whose value is to be displayed to the user. Note that the path string begins with an "at" sign and that no quotation marks are required around the path regardless of spaces within it. LocalizedString provides the path to an executable (.exe) or library (.dll) file. The LocalizedString data is of type REG_SZ, or REG_EXPAND_SZ if path variables such as %programfiles% are used. LocalizedString = Files\LitwareInc\ResourceDLL.dll,-123 The registration of Lit View occurs as shown here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Suppose that the executable name for Lit View is Litview.exe. We will demonstrate registry entries with a hypothetical browser called "Lit View" from a fictional company called Litware Inc. For example, a hypothetical system might have this arrangement: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

How to Register as the Default Internet Clientīelow the subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Clients\ StartMenuInternet there can be zero or more subkeys, one for each registered Internet browser application. When a new user logs onto the system, the Start menu uses the default value in the subkey at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Clients\ StartMenuInternet to display the default Internet client and starts the registered application when that icon is clicked. If that subkey is blank or missing, then the Internet icon on the Start menu is set to the system default stored in the second location at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Clients\ StartMenuInternet, which describes all Internet browser applications that are installed on the system. The subkey HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ SOFTWARE\ Clients\ StartMenuInternet describes the Internet browser that is started when the user clicks the Internet icon on the Start menu.

The default web browser is used for launching arbitrary URLs from anywhere in the system. Being registered as the default Start menu Internet application is not the same as being registered as the default web browser. Existing registrations are ignored in Windows 7 and later. This registration is deprecated as of Windows 7, which no longer provides a Start menu Internet link.
