BUGS!!! LMAO!!!! These are potholes! Its easy the uninstaller does not uninstall the entire program and plus you cannot without the service pack back up file in the windows folder metion in the previous replies on page 2 to 3. Second the actual decreases the performace by 25%+ by using up alot of resource. Finally the login/logoff screens show up white emply boxes as well.

If you don't wanna use it, then don't use it but pleas don't tell **** like this!

The uninstaller should rebuild the the dll's with the ".backup" files.And replacer make from every file which should be replaced a backup!If some person mean they've to delete those files it's not our problem mabe you should read the readme!:

there should be a warning placed for this download, obviously it wasnt fully tested. i wasnt able to fully uninstall either.

Tested or not, you should always take precautions when installing this type of thing. The most obvious one is to create a system restore point before installing. Does the installer create a system restore point itself? If it does, then just use that. If it doesn't, then the creators should add that in to the installer.

This thing is a piece of sh*t. To the ones who made it you obviously didn't test it on many computers. By "many computers" did you mean the same 2 over and over since you have to format your computer or use system restore just to uninstall or get rid of it?

This new one better uninstall it from my system because I'm going to be ****ed if I have to format my computer because I ran system restore and THAT didn't even get rid of it. You people need to learn how to make programs that actually work.

Besides the 2 who said they made it I've only seen one other post where someone said it worked fine.

One other thing...just becuase it was downloaded 200 times doesn't mean it worked for 200 people. I'm sure 200 people messaged you afterwards saying it worked, yeah right

Well here's 1 reason why it doesn't uninstall. If any of you dual boot like me. Windows 98 on my C: drive and XP on my D: drive. The "uninstaller" looks for "runme.bat" on drive C: (c:\windows\system32\runme.bat) where it should be looking at d:\windows\system32\runme.bat.

Now I have to format just to get this PURE CRAP off my computer. Worthless software. I should've waited for future postings on what people thought about it before downloading it.

By the way...I've downloaded the new one which seems a lot like the original just renamed.

This isn't anywhere near stable or anything to have been released and has no reason to be on the net. Who knows how many people have formatted there computers over this thing.

Hopefully some other program fixes all my default icons and login screens to save me from formatting.

YOU NEED TO TAKE IT OFF THE NET BEFORE OTHER SYSTEMS ARE SCREWED

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.

      Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
