Great pack, thanks for the hard work.

I have a question for you though, if you don't mind me asking.

What method do you use to do these sort of vast resource replacements? Do you open up each individual file and manually change the icons/whatever else? Or do you have some sort of resource editor scripting program? I'd be interested to know, because I've found lots of times where a quick batch program to edit resources in files would save me hours of time (thus I don't do the thing that would take hours of time-- i'm lazy)

If you don't use some sort of batch program, do you know of any program that makes it easy to do large amounts of resource replacing via some sort of script or something?

Thanks

Resource Hacker will allow you to do command line scripting. Check the help file for full details.

Last time I saw that error, ironically enough, was when I was installing the other smaller GANT shell32.dll file for SP1 on a system that was NOT upgraded to SP1. If you were lucky enough to have saved a backup of the shell32.dll file and all the others with the batch file that was included, u should be able to boot into the recovery console off your XP CD...go to C:\Windows\GANT and run the uninstall.bat file, that should fix everything for you.

Same thing happened to me just now, but I restored my C drive from a ghost file. :ninja:

ok,thanks for your help.i've solved my problem.and i found out the reason was i deleted some files in the g.a.n.t folder before i install the pack.so i re-extract the g.a.n.t pack and run the "install.bat" immediately.everything is ok.

    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all by Taras Buria Over the last few months, Microsoft has been very busy fixing Windows 11 with features that users have been asking the company for a long time. An upgraded Start menu, the ability to change the taskbar position, new Windows Update features, and plenty more. However, not all changes are visible on the surface. Some exciting upgrades happened under the hood, and one of those upgrades is now available to all Windows 11 users. The so-called "Low Latency Profile" is a special performance mode that aims to make Windows 11 snappier and more responsive. It boosts the processor clock speed to its maximum for a brief moment when rendering user interface elements or launching apps. As such, apps launch faster, and things like the Start menu or quick settings appear on the screen faster, although some are sceptical about it. Microsoft is not sharing many details about the new profile. The official release notes do not even mention it, with Microsoft only saying that the update "accelerates app launch and core shell experiences such as Start menu, Search, and Action Center." Also, you may need to enable it manually, as new features are rolling out gradually. Here is how to do it: Download ViVeTool from GitHub and unpack wherever convenient. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id:58989092 and press Enter. Restart your computer. After restarting your computer, launch Task Manager or any other hardware-monitoring software and check the processor clocks when opening the Start menu, Action Center, and more. Your processor should spike to its highest possible speed and then return to lower clocks. In addition to Low Latency Mode, the June 2026 Patch Tuesday update delivers additional features, such as multi-camera mode for apps (several apps can use a single camera stream), shared Bluetooth audio, improved Task Manager, and more.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I agree, especially with newer versions of MS Office supporting ODF documents, there isn't even a compatibility argument to be made. It should default to ODF on a clean install, with admin configurable options to make MS Office the default if that is desired.

      Are they on crack at M$? Surely living on an alternative reality? A good dump of mine would run faster down the toilet if I did not flush it. But still looks better than this pile of slop. By the way, did they also comment on what's the next "functionality added"? Maybe you can improve it if you add even more stuff to this vomitware.
