Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thanks Lee. That means I could have did:
ni -type file $profile -force
**Don't do it unless you want to wack your profile to empty.

| This is something that we hope to allow as a command-line arguement in the
| installer. However, we're just about to rewrite our setup (into 3
different
| technologies, in fact,) so we didn't want to put feature work into the
| current installer for this release. With that, I think that most of your
| deployment and personalization concerns would be covered.

| Try the following to create a file, along with its intermediate
directories:
|
| [C:\temp\monad]
| PS:12 > new-item -type File "c:\new path\file.txt" -force
|
| Directory: C:\new path
|
| Mode LastWriteTime Length Name
| Description

| Suggestion: An alias for New-Item is ni
|
| [C:\temp\monad]
| PS:13 > dir 'C:\new path\file.txt'
|
| Directory: C:\new path
