TweakUI vs TweakVI

Both are extremely good at doing what they were designed for; however you
cannot install both on the same system. TweakUI is for Windows XP and will
not install on Windows Vista. TweakVI, on the other hand, is only suitable
for Vista.

Is there a technical reason why it should not be used with Vista? It
instals OK

Not all the settings changes it has may work as intended. Some of the
intended keys are now protected by sets of permissions.
