[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

Have you guys tried this on a XP Pro machine joined to a domain? I did and it presented me with a black screen :( had to restore system from backup. Home system is tangoized, but work machine does not have the latest and greatest. Also, it seems Sophos AV detects the wfpdisable.exe as a virus.

i used the latest (beta) version on a winxp pro sp2 machine on a domain, worked fine. previously i had the batch script version running on the same thing. i patched with the beta using safe mode, and all is well.

when i was using the batch version, 'trend officescan' was detecting the 'wfpdisable.exe' as a virus as well. pretty annoying. "UPX -9 wfpdisable.exe" seemed to make it stop, since trend is pretty brain dead. (this is certainly NOT a virus; it's usually detected as a malware tool.)

BTW: is deviant art is no longer working with Opera browser?

left part of the page looks smashed, so i can't even click at download link

you can open your sidebar, click on links and search for the download link. not too complicated as there is only one link named "Download".

I'm still hesitant to run the latest patch on my system. Did you remove the script version prior to running the latest beta? Which options did you select when installing?

I don't know anything... at all... about NT Domains / Active Directory / Whatever they changed the name to for Server 2003. It shouldn't be any different, unless your administrator has set an AD object to block various filesystem operations, or something along those lines. I guess I still need to play with the comctl32.dll patching code.

Yeah, WFPdisable is frequently detected as a virus. Not a whole lot I can do about that, since it's sorta necessary for the comctl32-breaking parts. FlyakiteOSX uses it the same way, gets the same false-positives. I doubt UPXing the executable is really a solution for false-positiving, since there's antivirus software out there that flags anything that's UPX packed as a virus, but eh, I might do it anyways.

any news about the WLM patch?
It's a target for next month. I didn't really feel like doing anything to the patcher over the past few days, so I didn't;))

EDIT - Nevermind I've taken care of it:))

i uninstalled the script version first, did a 'sfc /scannow', and then a windows update (just to be sure).

afterwards: rebooted in safe mode, used new patcher, selected everything except for the boot screen.

at any rate, i'd suggest making a backup first -- i don't mind breaking my machine at home, but the box at work needs to function. (i used acronis to image the whole thing.)

as far as the august release: how should i handle this? can i just install over top of the previous beta, or do i need to uninstall, reboot, reinstall?

CAREFUL

Not that it matters to me, I'm formatting anyway, but

So I installed iColorFolder, set it to default XP, then installed lastest august Tango patch, then installed Tango skin for iColor, and all icons are now missing.

Whatever I did, I screwed it up pretty hard.

Booting in safe mode is unnecessary now. The boot screen isn't what's been breaking - it's comctl32.dll. So that worked for you :laugh: But yeah, I recommend backing stuff up before installing it too - I recommend that to anybody. Installing anything :p You can install "August 2006" over the previous betas, that's a large percentage of the point of the new installer.

Er... so what broke? If I'm reading you right, it sounds like iColorFolder didn't clear the icon cache properly. iCF and the patcher are basically unrelated, so you shouldn't have to play with one to play with the other anyways. Edited by vertigosity

Finally a decent Ubuntu visual style:

And I almost missed it because it is not shown under 'new' in the visual styles category of dA. I want my old dA back...

It is listed under "Newest" in the Visual Styles. Just make sure your under "All Time" and not "24 hours."

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
