Damn you people totally destroyed my bandwidth for this month, awesome :D Nearly 2,000 people downloaded Classix on March 11th alone, that just about did it right there hehe. So what I'm trying to say is.. I need someone to host Classix, I didn't want to bother anyone but I guess I have no choice now. If anyone would be kind enough to do this, let me know. :)

Wolvereen: I use IconPackager by Stardock to replace my icons, it's the best that I've seen.

ORPHlC: I'm not a fan of having half-naked ladies on my desktop but you did a good job with that and she certainly does look tasty. :)

Stunod7: Did you patch your uxtheme.dll file or alternatively you could use StyleXP, either one will do. It should be showing in the Appearance tab under 'Windows and buttons'. If you still can't get it to work let me know I'll try to help some more.

korbendallas: There used to be a thread for a Samurize skin for Classix, I think it was lost in the fiasco. If someone has a copy maybe they can post it.

giga, I can mirror it if you'd like. I doubt I could handle being the main host though... About how much bandwidth was used during the month?

Thanks jest. So far for the month of March it's 1.4 gigs, I used up 1 gig in 2 days on the 10th and 11th when I released the new version. If you can mirror that'd be great but let me know if it's too much, I don't want to steal all of your bandwidth. :)

Stunod7: Replace your uxtheme.dll with the one I've attached, you'll have to go into Safe Mode to do it. You'll find it in 'C:\WINDOWS\system32'.

Gigatexel -

Forgive me my ignorance...I reinstalled Plus for WMP9, but I still don't know what to do with the shplayer.dll.? Its still sitting in my windows/system32 dir, but I still have the garrish default imimized player....

Any advice woudl be appreciated.? Thanks!

If you have not installed the shellplayer previously, install the shellplayer then right click on your taskbar and choose audio player and to use your shplayer.dll just replace the one in your system32 folder. If the audio player is not in the taskbar menu, right click and choose install on the shellplayer config file next to the shplayer.dll in your system32 folder.

That should be fine giga. I've got 25GB/month and I use less than 100mb of it right now (on average).

If you can e-mail me the latest RAR files I'll upload them and post the links. I'd do it myself but I delete the RAR's after extracting the files.

Thanks dude, do you think I could FXP it to your site? That'd be much easier and faster than emailing it to you. Thank you everyone who offered to mirror, I really appreciate it. I think jest should be able to handle the bandwidth. :)

I'm a goober. I thought it was a shell player for Windows Media Player? Not a seperate standalone player.

My bad! Thanks though!

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
