Does anyone know where the registry keys are located for the following
two commands:

1) Right click on the taskbar > Properties > Show small icons in Start
menu

2) Right click on Desktop > Arrange Icons > Auto Arrange

Thanks for your help!

Not off hand, but you can find them yourself using REGMON from
Sysinternals.com (free). HTH

I've already used RegShot to take a snapshot of the registry both
before and after the setting was changed. It said that nothing was
changed in the Registry. Maybe the setting isn't held in the
registry...?
