Edit_By the way, you get the propper My Computer icon in the pack, The R2D2 is just me messing around, it dosen't come in the replicator as the default icon by you can find it in C:\Windows\System32\filestypes.dll

Whatever, just want to say that your desktop looks awsome and, more importantly...Boulevard of Broken Dreams is one of my all-time favorite songs along with "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi!

I want that Media Player skin. :blush: . Anyone have a link for that directly?

its not a skin, its a stand alone Widget. you can download it with my pack when it comes out or you can download it. I will post a link when I find it.

here is the screenshot it was based upon. As you cab see in the quicklaunch the "shortcut to desktop" icon has not changed at all since Windows XP, wich I think is very boring and it will probably be canged in a later beta version of Vista anyway so in my pack I am usind this icon.

If anyone has any problems with this then you can change it back to the XP icons, use Resource Hacker and open the followind files Shell32.dll and Explorer.exe. Cange the icons back to the origional XP icons and then using replacer. This will not damage the uninstall file or stop it uninstalling properly.

The wiget has been based on this image

O.K. I have a bit of a problem with my pack. In the uninstall. I need away that I can get your orional files into the uninstall. The only time I have seen this done is with bricopacks. Dose anybody know where I can get a Bricopack maker from. i would be very helpful for your assistance. There are some example bricopackes on CrystalXP. Unfortunately the Longhorn one is all backward of Vista and the Vista one is just plain blue. Otherwise I would of just posted a link to one of them.

If anyone has any idea of where to get a Bricopacks maker, I think its called bricomix, then please email me

Does this work as it should? A litle sceptic to apply such packages.

You should be, it will work as well as other bricopacks. I haven't heard of a bricopack causing problems and if it dose, bricopacks make a system restore point when you install them and the uninstall contains your system files, not the authors. this pack only replaces the bitmaps inside the system files, not the system file.

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
