Run user as System on Winxp and up

Tried this on Win7 64bit will probably work on others

This is the real Admin account in Windows. The regular one is just to make you feel good, and the secret one makes you feel even more in control but such is not the case as many files are still restricted from editing even when there. To be told even when running as system the restrictions were still there (the Take Ownership file fixes that)
So why run this? Really just for your ego cause you can run any program as system and be able to edit anything (like if you gave regedit system privileges you'd be able to edit any protected key. Microsoft has a system user called SYSTEM/NT AUTHORITY which we are going to activate.

Obviously make a snapshot of your machine before you proceed. I have Rollback Rx and that worked when stuff went south.

Ok lets roll.
PowerRun is a tool which makes anything run with system privileges so if we open up explorer it'll create another user called system.

Download powerrrun and windows enabler and run it. Run explorer.exe thru powerun (right click, open with,choose powerrun)
If you want to be a permanent system user you need to set the permananet association with powerrun but since windows doesn't let you do that by default thats what windows enabler comes to fix. When explorer is run another user will be created it'll take a few minutes. You'll see a brand new desktop with icons..
Microsoft is funky though, the system user is located in system32/config/systemprofile
64bits will be in wow64/config/systemprofile
not in the Users folder.

Enjoy the control and ego boost of the system user

Change Brave cache

Web browsers save their caches at predetermined locations by default, which can usually be changed quite easily from within the browsers’s Options. However, in Brave, there is no visible option to change the location of the cache. This doesn’t, however, mean that it can’t be done. In this guide we’ll show you how to easily change the default save location of Brave’s cache. Using Microsoft Windows 7, the default save location of Brave’s cache is: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Brave\User Data\Default\Cache Here’s how to change it by adding just a few parameters to the Brave shortcut. In my case I have a ramdisk on A:/   so I’m going to use that, you can adjust it for whatever you like. Also I use OORegedi t which is basically Regedit on steroids, but it will work with the regular one too. 1.        Locate a Brave shortcut (Desktop, Start Menu, Taskbar etc.), right-click it and select  Properties . 2.    ...
