If you’ve gone through the various new and superb features offered by Windows 7, you must have read about the Windows 7’s Libraries. The Windows 7 OS, hence bestows you with this really good feature to look forward to. Also, it can be said that this is the finest under-estimated feature of this OS.
However, getting used to these libraries might be annoying and complex. This might make you feel like doing away with these libraries regardless of the benefits they provide you with.
Don’t worry, if you can’t get used to this new feature, you can disable it as well.
First, let’s take a brief on these libraries. The new Libraries feature in Windows 7 offers the following facilities:
- It creates virtual folders i.e. it allows you to merge several document folders together into a distinct library which combines them all into a distinct folder.
- It lets you build new libraries.
- Also, it allows you to access the libraries from general file open dialogs.
Though the Libraries in Windows 7 present you with an exceptional element that further enhances the Windows file management, but of course some of you might find it rather confusing and unnecessary. If you’re not able to get used to a new way of doing things, then you can totally get rid of the Libraries by using the registry hack file. Here you just need to run a small registry script to disable it.
- What you need to do is to first download the registry file (registry script) from the internet.
- Then extract it and double click on the given registry hack file.
- After this, restart your system.
These steps would consequently eliminate the libraries entirely.
In case you want to get this feature back, an uninstall registry script option is also there.
