noob here, what's the best way to accomplish this?

well I've done my homework now and have tried adding this reg entry, but all it seems to do is break the Sense notifications. It had no effect on snooze durations.

Does this not work on 6.5? (or Sense instead of TF3D?)

since you did your home work ill assume you know what the old setting was for that reg key? could you share that info? i think i changed it quickly one night and never remembered the default value

as I understood the directions (as quoted just above) it was to create a brand new DWORD entry, so not sure what you mean by old setting?

ah thanks. didnt know you had to set the whole key there. i can just delete that key and i should have it set to normal. if i ever get a reminder and realize its broken. thanks!

sure, it was easy enough to fix what I had broken by just deleting the reg entry, but still wish I could get some snooze duration options...

yeah i know its either every 5 mins and get annoyed by it or dismiss it and forget about it.
