Wonderful! :D I always thought there's something wrong with my tray-icons since I've also had a problem with other icons not showing in true-colour (I use Win 2000 SP4). I had no idea the sys-tray by default shows just 16 (?!?) colours... Why? I mean, all tray-icons seem to be designed in 256 colours (except the system ones, of course) and some don't even have a 16 colour version which forces the 256 colour version to be shown in a really bad way...

Now my sys-tray looks very colourful. :laugh:

Does anybody here know how to integrate it into Win2000 install disc? I try to makecab explorer.exe explorer.ex_, then overwrite it into I386 folder of CD, then try to re-install it with new CD. But during installation, it prompt it's not a valid Win2000 system image. Somebody say that use setcsum utility or modifype to change checksum of PE-header. But still failed. Anybody can help me on it? Thanks! :blink:

You don't need to download something to patch explorer.exe. Only you have to click on the first paragraph the end of the following line:

-NEW- Windows 2000 SP4 : You can now automaticaly patch your Windows of any language. Click Here.

Recommended to do this in the Internet Explorer.

If you get failing you can download this file

http://www.dr-hoiby.com/TrayIconIn256Color/ExplorerPatcher.cab

Extract to somewhere, open the DOS command windows here and type this:

regsvr32.exe ExplorerPatcher.dll

Now restart the comp and ready. :rofl:

    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.
    • ahh yes the good old your opinion differs from mine so you are therefore insane lol destiny 1 had no agenda pushing and was a massive success of a game, if you clearly look online the team for some reason thought they had too many men on the team and went on a woman and dei recruitment drive and we all know how destiny 2 performed from then on in
    • The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
