Loso Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 It's never happened to me with XP or Vista, but im stumped with windows 7. i've installed it but it's like i dont know what to do with it. what im looking for is - a patch to get rid of the watermark - a uxtheme patch - various other tweaks like adding the "Take Ownership" option to the context menu. where can i find such patches/tweaks that will work with build 7201?

ToneKnee Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Google "Windows 7 rc watermark" (I like to keep my searches since that gives me better results) second link came up with: http://digiex.net/guides-tutorials/1323-ho...ld-7100-rc.html Google "windows 7 Take Ownership" brought up this second link: http://www.askvg.com/add-take-ownership-op...-windows-vista/ Uxtheme I'm not going to bother looking for since I find it pointless at this stage with the different builds being released.

JessicaD Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 C.R.E.A.M, Microsoft does have an official Windows 7 RC Support Forum located here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums...tegory/w7itpro/ . It is supported by product specialists as well as engineers and support teams. You may want to post your question there as well for additional support. Also, another great resource is Microsoft Springboard. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/dd361745.aspx Jessica Microsoft TechNet / Springboard v-jedeen@Microsoft.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
