    How to make balloon tips disappear promptly, *without disabling them*


    Is there any registry setting that'll allow me to change the maximum display time for a balloon tip? I want all of them to appear for 3-5 seconds or so rather than hang around for 30+ like they currently do.

    I do NOT want to disable them entirely. I know how to do that, and it's not what I want, as the information in the balloons can be useful.



    Tried trawling google, but all I can find is a thousand results explaining how to disable them entirely. If there is anything out there, it's lost in a sea of similar search results.


    Cheers!

Back in the old days when TVs and radios had tubes, it took a couple of minutes for a set to warm up before you could watch or listen. But even then, you could turn it off instantly. That's not true with Windows PCs. Not only does it sometimes take seemingly forever for them to boot, but it can...
