Here's a power tip from the tip master, Jeremy Hurren. In this gem, Jeremy shows you a quick way to make it easier to view sublayer information.

If you're a power user who needs to manipulate the information in your layers directly, you may find this useful.

Currently you may be using regedit to look at all the keys under HKLM\SYSTEM\Altiris\FSL to find which two areas match your layer.

Instead, set the following flag in the regsitry key to make SVSAdmin display this for you.

Modify This Key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Altiris\SVS
Flags (DWORD) = 0x00000001

In the details view, you'll get an extra column of data showing "Sublayer Info" letting you know where to find your layer data.

For more information about modifying values in the FSL key, see the tip Auto-Closing Applications Running from a Layer.

Any more useful reg flags?

Excellent, this will be very useful. Only wish I’d noticed this a few months ago. Do you know of any other useful reg flags to uncover “advanced” views? Seeing the priority or auto-close settings?

Thanks
