Am I right in thinking this is the component that removes the windows file protection?

Thanks

Yeah it's a false positive, I usually just disable my a/v when I install the patcher.

From what I know (which isn't much), the patcher DOES affect Windows system files and because of that, it will get the attention of Windows File Protection. Windows doesn't like it when you touch it's privates. Anyway, Vertigosity has assured all of us that the patcher is completely virus-free and will always be. It is probably a good idea to run the patcher with an AV disabled though, like ViperAFK said. Most AVs will put up red flags if it sees system files being messed with.

Can someone make a Defrag icon? It's pretty much the only system icon that isn't patched and it looks fugly. Thanks in advance :)

i'm gonna or at least try to make 2 blue tango versions the difference most likely will WLM icon and maybe the contact list color.......besides that i'm lookin for doing a tangerie version but there is no much icons so i dont know.....i'm trying to do this because i'm new to skinning WLM and i want ot practice, practice and practice to try to get better

Yes it is a false positive, but your antivirus is complaining for a good reason. It is worried about the Windows File Protection disabler, which could be used to install virussed versions of some system files. The patcher installs tangoed versions of some system files.

  • What "new" Tango icons are you referring to?

i'm referring to the HQ that someone post few days back, they tend to look little bit glossy....i think they r fromn the tango fridays i dont know, if so i will like to know if there is svg for then and where i can get them

The new GTK tango ones I believe when they had that contest or whatever.

All these screencaps are making my modem hurt :/

why those icons are not changed?

os win2k3 sp2

You've probably got a comctl32 variant I hadn't caught before. In fact, if you're running 2003 SP2, I'd be surprised if you weren't. Fire up a command prompt, run
dir /b %windir%\winsxs\*common-controls*.*

and copy-paste the output, and I'll try to get it in the next not-vaporware update.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
