TweakVista allows easy access to the new features built into Windows Vista, formerly known as Windows Codename Longhorn.

Please extract the files to a fresh directory that does not contain a previous build of TweakVista (or it will complain about .NET versions).

On the DWM tab, you can unleash the powers of the Display Window

Manager, Windows Vista's fresh new user interface.

The Envionment tab allows you to view and customize environment variables.

The Search tab customizes the search engines available to IE7 and lets you add your own.

The UAP tab can be used to modify some of the prompts Vista displays when various actions attempt to execute on the system. For instance, you can enable a prompt for authorized credentials when performing a protected action.

This build of TweakVista has been tested against the Windows Vista December CTP (build 5270). Future CTP's may change in functionality and require a new TweakVista build.
