How to Disable Balloon Tips!

Did you ever have to turn your firewall off for some reason, or change your virus protection to something other than windows defender (or any other virus protection that Windows actually recognizes)? Then if on Vista, you must keep getting those annoying ass balloon tips in the bottom right hand corner of your screen. There's actually a way to turn that OFF, which is why I decided to make this quick guide to a very simple fix for it. I figured that this would help people who were as pissed off at it as I was.


Step 1.

Press the Windows key (the one that looks like it has a flag on it), and press the R key while holding it down.

Step 2.

Type regedit in run and click OK.


Step 3.

In the left click HKEY_CURRENT_USER, then Software, then Microsoft, then Windows, then CurrentVersion, then Explorer, then Advanced.

Step 4.

Now right click somewhere in the white space, click new, click DWORD (32-bit) Value three times, and give them the following names: FolderContentsInfoTip, StartButtonBalloonTip, and EnableBalloonTips. DO NOT just click new, click DWORD (32-bit) Value three times, and click off somewhere thinking that you can rename it later.

If you see this:

You fucked up. Delete those and name them one at a time as you create them!


Step 5.

Even though the Data value should be 0x00000000 (0) by default, do the following if your computer got raped by gophers and the values are something other than that.

Right click 'FolderContentsInfoTip' and click Modify; now enter the following and click OK:

Right click 'StartButtonBalloonTip' and click Modify; now enter the following and click OK:

Right click 'EnableBalloonTips' and click Modify; now enter the following and click OK:


So when done, you should see this:



Step 5.

That's it, just reset and enjoy your peace.
