Hi guys!

I released this on AeroXP AGES ago. It seems some people are still looking for them, though. SO, here they are, the AeroXP exclusive Vista Beta 1 PNG icons.

Those people who just copy the shell32.dll icons (which are old, by the way. Check the icons you SEE in vista and the icons in shell32... they're way old) can now be quiet. I've also made an IconPackager theme for them (so you can actually have 256x256 icons without a loss in quality!). The control panel icon is strangely enough only updated in ONE PART of vista B1.... but that part looks like a slip, so this is what MS are going to go for (though eventually we hope in XAML).

Here they are...

Vista PNGs in 256x256

Vista IconPackage

Of course, you can use AveIconifier to convert the PNGs to ICOs. If you use this in any tranformation pack or any of these resources in anything, please credit them to: Blackice@AeroXP

Other than that, have fun!

they're the REAL ones from vista Beta 1. Don't tell me you've never seen them (well, some of them you prolly haven't, such as the new control panel icon...etc), in full 256x256 glory :)

oh, and just doubleclick the .iconpackager file and it should load. Does for me using latest version :shrug:

Iconpackager doesn't recognize them.

you need iconpackager 3.0 for this to work. Notice the file format is different (.iconpackager rather than .iptheme). That is why it will not work with anything less than version 3.0.

Could someone convert them into *.ico format or create an installer that is not going to have to require me to use a star dock program..... maybe something that will patch the files n replce em with these?

      I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

      Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
