Well, if you keep your original shell32 (always a good idea) then just switch back to it ...

can someone here make a gui replacer module for this please ??

im sure i already said this in another post but i will do this and have already nearly completed it. just that i was in need of some icons from mavis and he was sick and i asked him but didnt want to push him. if he can come good with the icons that i needed (hope he still has the list cause i have lost it) then in 4 weeks i can release it given i still have permission to do so, last time i checked i did. it has to be 4 weeks because that is when i get back from china to australia. sorry i cant do things any quicker. maybe if i run out of things to do later on in my trip and have the time to work on it then i will do it for sure.

cheers

Of course you still have permission! And I'm sorry I haven't been able to get those new icons to you - I will work on it over the next few weeks, and have everything ready for you by the time you return to Australia. I was sick, then really busy with the holidays/etc, and to be honest, a bit "icon'd out" ... lol. But I will get the icons finished for you!

:D

absolutely no problem at all mavis, please dont rush on my account just hope others understand thats all. im looking forward to making this complete because i not use this method to change my icons and would be great o have this set included in my collection. thanx heaps for everything man. if there are any extra icons you have then feel free to send em my way :) i will do the best i can to make this as complete as possible. also im waiting for version 2 of gui replacer to be released. so everything is up to date.

take care man glad your not sick now :)

cheers

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
