Vista RC2 Build 5744 *remove desktop text patch*


Recommended Posts

I've patched a file so the text in the lower-right of the screen is removed.

It is made for Vista RC2 Build 5744 so please don't try it on ealier builds since the file is differ from this one with it's content.

The file can be downloaded at http://www.ampcore.dk and instructions on how to install is there too.

i just used the one for the 5743 build.. same... :s?

The ID within this file is 6.0.5744.16384 (vista_rtm_edw.061003-1945) and I'll bet you that 5743 (is there even such a build?) does not have those numbers.

So it might remove the watermark from the desktop but you won't have the correct it in the file, so somewhere in Vista it might show wrong numbers.

How do I delete the file, it won't let me take ownership! I gave myself the permissions and change the owner to my user but it won't let me delete keeps saying I need permission from myself(current user) lol. I've disabled UAC

Take ownership of the file and rename the old file to "user32.dll.bak" or "user32.dll.mui.bak" or something else and then copy the new file into it's directory

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
