[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

is there any way to change the recycle bin color to blue by anychance?

When some1 send you the icon with the other colour, or you

know where to find `em, you can reshack the shell32.dll and

use all other recycle bins ...

(Tune-Up-Utilities or Iconpackager does it too)

Mmmh... sure it couldn't be anything else / does the problem still occur with the pack uninstalled? I haven't dipped too far into modifying that, and it still runs on all the systems I'd thought to try it on. If nothing else, I'd say to check your event log, but I can't think of any specific things to look for; just poke around, and maybe check the Services console to make sure the Help and Support Center service is running.

I dont know what's the problem. Firts i saw wmp11 didnt run anymore (with a new reinstall nothing too), then help and support center and a few windows's apps too. If i uninstall shell patcher the problem persists.

I've tried to restore help & support center but it doesnt fix my problem. The services are running too.

Here's a curious thing, windows services (extended view). Standard view is ok:

My advice: Choose a more tasteful nick next time, you 'Resident One Post Wonder'...

Apologies, maybe you misunderstood. It is a reference to the Reichstag Fire in 1933, where historians suggest that the Nazis burned their own parliment building (the Reichstag) and blamed it on their enemies.

I believe that 9/11 was the same 'false-flag' style operation as the Reichstag Fire was. That is all my nick refers to...

Any advice please?

Maybe Vertigosity can fix this for next updates, I think the problem

is that both apps are older versions (or lite-versions) ...

You can change filetypes with folderoptions:

"Iconpackager" or "Tuneup Utilities" can change icons too: Here

By the way, what VS do you use ? Strange colours ?

Can you post 128x128 icons somewhere? :) (If you can) many thanks.
Check that "source material stuff" link in the first post.

For just the recycle bin on the Desktop, there's a control panel built into XP. Display/Desktop properties > Desktop > Customize Desktop. Alternatively, you could grab the GPL source package from the homepage, and take a few minutes to figure out the on-install resource-overriding bits. I put them in there for just this sort of thing.
Hi.... I installed the latest release, but some of the icons were not changed. These are a few that I noticed... I am using Acrobat Reader 5 and Windows Media Player 6.4 on an nLited Windows XP. Any advice please?
Yeah, I don't have the patcher modifying those. At least not yet. I'll think about it, although I'd have to download a copy of Acrobat 5, which isn't really likely for me. The file-type dialog will let you change them.

(@breakfastclub: that's the normal Windows 2000 Standard, just downsampled to 256 colors without dithering)

Yep, that is just the normal Classic look but it is saved as a GIF in 256 colors so it looks a bit off.

Acrobat 5 you can get here: www.oldversion.com - It is quite faster and less bloated than the latest versions.

Thanks Breakfastclub for the help about how to change the icons, I'll look into it. But can you tell me which file the Tango Acrobat icons and Media icons are stored in? Which DLL file, I mean...

But can you tell me which file the Tango Acrobat icons and Media icons are stored in? Which DLL file, I mean...

"C:\WINDOWS\Super Turbo Tango Patcher\Resources\res_named"

Can you be a bit more specific and/or descriptive of what kind of help you need, or what you want this executable to do?

Hi...

Thanks for your help...

I found the Adobe icons where you mentioned...

and a generic audio icons and video icon in "Super Turbo Tango Patcher\Resources\res_named\mimetypes"

So I can try and change them now...

One pointer to Vertigosity: I found some more icons that are not patched... please see this screenshot:

sorry about that . I should include attachments to explain. The bars under the icons are what I want, it is similar to vista , showing that how much capacity I have used and left. Someone built these with a tagnerine color, but I want these in Tango style (blue )... and I would like it to be an exe file so that I could apply to it directly.... Thanks

tcm released a tango version of my tangerine icons, i believe the following download link should work for tcm's tango ones.

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...t&id=168233

if you already have the tangerine ones installed, just copy/paste the tango icons over the tangerine ones, then re-run the .exe to re-apply the new icons.

Wow, Industrial is extreme sexy :happy: Thanks Vertigosity !

But the green arrows (bmp`s in shell32 and comctl32) could be more industial like ;)

yeah, i totaly agree, its somewhat to green.

lets hope Vertigosity got this planned as a Xmas gift for the December release :)

It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
