Is it possible to disable hot tracking in tree- and listview controls in Windows 7? I guess this is related to the Aero theme, but I don't want to switch to Classic. I would like to have Aero without hot tracking. Is it possible?

Tried the mentioned registry setting, but it disabled hot tracking only in tree view. – Arend – 2012-09-28T17:51:40.267
You may have to use a 3rd party file explorer like classic shell – Moab – 2012-09-28T22:12:51.353
