View/Tree pane/Use tabs

or you can use

ShowSmallToolbar=0
in XnView INI File
or in
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\XnView\Hidden]

Actually the icon bar consists of two parts, the tabs (Folders, Favourites, Categories) and the small toolbar with file and folder actions.

For showing/hiding you use View > Tree pane > Use tabs (for tabs) and View > Small Toolbar (for the toolbar).

The equivalent entries in the .ini file are
[Browser]
ShowTabTree=0
ShowSmallToolbar=0

hmmm seems that
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\XnView\Hidden] isn't right.

Is there a list of Regkey's that can be used in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE to make the setting machine wide?

XnView never touches HKLM for its options. You have to either manually propogate it to everyone's HKCU, set a logon script to push it, create a template and policy for it, or use PolicyMaker to simplify the prior option, among other options. (Both policy methods only work on 2K, XP Pro, 2003, or Vista Premium and up.)

• Which just shows that using the registry to save the settings is a mast in the b** !

This key doesn't works??

No, the HKLM key doesn't work for all users. (On Terminal Server)

@foxyshadis
Policy is a good idea, but I hope to get it in registry so I can keep configuration in one software distribution package
