[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

If you consider changing the icon for audio files... :whistle:

I thought the audio icons were all changed. They look Tango to me :|

Some are the little movie clapper thing and some are the music note. It just depends on the format.

There we go. Tango TB skin. I was going to do a Gnome and Tangerine but I'm exhausted and have tons of stuff going on away from the computer that unfortunately come first. Not fun stuff either. Anyway, hopefully someone can pick up where I left off and do the Tangerine and Gnome skins. I'm sure some bugs will pop up in this skin too.

I hope it works for everyone :)

Yes, but the move clapper thing for mp3s is looking not that good...

Thanks for that!

Windows Media Player, Winamp, and so many other programs use the same icon, regardless of whether it's audio or video. I set them to use the director's clapper thingy because it's the icon for the "multimedia" category, which is the closest thing there is to something that covers both. If I set the icon for whatever you're using (WiMP?) to the icon for a music file, then you're going to see video files with audio file icons. Make sense?
Is there anyway to incorporate the tango installer with a nlite'd xp disc?
Rado354's been building wrappers to include it as a post-install item, but the way he's doing it, he needs to spin a seperate build for each sub-theme. If you're going for base Tango, look here: http://www.winaddons.com/tango-patcher-703/ - otherwise, poke him.

Here's Gnome TB skin that's been around even before TB 2.0 came out. It's the best theme out there.

Well, there you go. Gnome TB skin. I had no idea that even existed. Thanks for the link! :)

EDIT: Just had a look at it and saw that it's pretty dated and follows the old Gnome revision. Pre-Tango or whatever. Still a great skin though. I guess he isn't planning on updating it?

Yes, I use WiMP and yes, it makes sense. So I have to live with it... :pinch:

Now provide us with the last legacy OS version. :ike:

Well, not necessarily. It doesn't really feel like "patcher" territory, but it's simple enough to fix in the registry:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mp3file\DefaultIcon]
@="C:\\PROGRA~1\\WINDOW~2\\wmplayer.exe,-120"

Make a .reg file, set that to something else, like "C:\WINDOWS\Super Turbo Tango Patcher\Resources\res_named\mimetypes\audio-x-generic.ico", and repeat for any other filetypes you've got (or only for whatever filetype you've got).

Lovin' that TB 2.0 skin Sooperdoode, outstanding work once again.

Um...thanks very much. Really kind words :)

Vert, didn't Lokheed make some file type icons for Linux? I don't know how much you use the unofficial stuff in the patcher.

awesome! you own!

Hey, Vert. What's going to happen now? Take a long break from doing Patcher stuff or jump right into Vista compatibility? Either way, I know you'll get it done eventually so there is no point in rushing you. If you want the patcher done, you'll get it done. Besides. It's kind of hard to rush you. What can I do? Say "Lyk, ZOMG! horri up! i ned mi pachre now!11!"

Nice revision by the way! Great to finally have Ooo support! What was changed in Tangerine specifically? Not much, I'm assuming.

So true, I really do get stuff done exactly when I feel like it :p ReactOS is running in VMware again, so I'll probably dust that off and get that finished before anything else; we'll see, then. Still no nvidia fan speed control, and the rivatuner forums have a few posts saying that it's not going to happen in Rivatuner for Vista, that nV's moved the code out of their driver and into nTune (I guess I'll need to play with that, next.)

Feisty (or Feisty+1?) got official 32x32 icons, the hard drive icon changed shape a little, and the monitors went from dark brown to bright orange. That's about it, though.
A new version of your thunderbird skin Sooperdoode? What's in the update?

No revision was made. It is "as is" unless someone comes forward and takes on the project. As for right now, I'm not doing any skinning whatsoever. I'm lazy and I've got a lot going on so I don't have much time. Did you notice something wrong with the skin?

    • I think he means you haven't reviewed previous UFC games. Of course it doesn't matter... Every time you just report on something that involves the President even if just simply what happened you guys usually get accused of being anti-Trump. We live in fun times.
    • So how did you solve the problem? Disabling Secure Boot isn’t a solution.
    • Another devilish issue surrounding these certificates is what can happen with old, unsuspecting PCs that nevertheless have Secure Boot enabled. In my case, it was a Dell with a 3rd-gen Core chip (so about 13 years old). As of the last few weeks, it was suddenly BSOD'g within about 5 minutes of booting. Turns out it was because of MS's "Secure-Boot-Update" scheduled task, which is scheduled to run 5 minutes after login. It's explained in gory detail here (this is not my post, but it was where I found the answer), but the short version is that this legacy system would need fairly elaborate, manual certificate intervention since MS's automatic cert update method cannot work. How to do that is linked late in the thread. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c...od-caused-by-scheduled-task Secure Boot wasn't at all important for this particular PC, so I disabled it to be done with the problem.
    • Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior. Privacy-focused settings allow you to limit telemetry and data collection, while system customization options let you personalize the taskbar, Start menu, Explorer, and Windows themes. Winhance also supports installing or removing software efficiently, including external apps via WinGet integration, streamlining both new setups and daily maintenance. New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions. It's regularly updated to ensure compatibility with the latest Windows updates and features. Winhance key features: Debloat Windows – Safely remove unwanted apps, features, and legacy components.

Driver Integration – Include current system drivers in custom ISOs. Non-Destructive Changes – Reversible settings with clear explanations in the GUI. Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.
