Okay RayVN I need you to give me a list of the icons you would like done, I mean icons that you would actually see often when using your PC. There are tons of icons in the shell32 and other DLLs that I just don't see so I won't bother doing them. I think I'll definately do the Control Panel icons (category view) but what else?

I'm not sure if I should post this here, but I d/led the Icons, which are great I might add, but there's a few icons I can't seem to change, like My Music and My Pictures. Some others are the "My Hard Drive" icon and CD Drive icons. Can I please get some help w/ this? Thanks.

Job welldone Cha...

Now I would just like to wait for the full .dll file...heh...i`m a lil lazy to replace them in my shell32...

And also the shut down and logoff...

Favourites would be those hdd..and recycle bins...the folders too! Nicely donee....

Can I have the full version or can you post it here? this would be great for everyone! THANKS!

i tried oin the dll thing it didnt work

heres what i did

>extacted the modded dlls u made to a folder

>backed up my originals

>restarted in safe mode with command prompt

>logged in as admin

>tried to copy the files to system32

>got an overwrite dialog,chose yes

>it said that the files were in use in another process and hence cant be overwritten

any other way to go about it

I still use the Restorator method which is the fastest for me.

- Get "Restorator" resource hacker from http://www.bome.com/Restorator/.

- Make sure you either rename or delete the shell32.dll and shdocvw.dll files from your "%windir%\system32\dllcache" folder AND your (i think) "%windir%\ServicePackFiles\i386\" folder and make sure you don't have a Windows XP Install CD in any drive.

- Open my modded DLLs using Restorator

- Then replace one icon from each DLL file using an identical icon from the set I included. (Right-click on icon resources for the "assign to" options). So effectively you are not really changing anything in my modded DLL files, this just lets you save the updated DLL files.

- Click on the floppy disk icon in Restorator to save the DLLs and overwrite the original shell32.dll and shdocvw.dll files in your %windir%\system32\ folder. It will automatically make backups.

- You should then see the file protection warnings after a short pause. This means it worked.

- Reboot.

Sorry, you lost me totally on that ...

I extracted your modded DLL files to C:\Temp

I opened Restorator

Chose FILE/OPEN and browsed to Temp dir and chose shell32.dll from the shell32 folder

After that I am lost :(

Then replace one icon from each DLL file using an identical icon from the set I included. (Right-click on icon resources for the "assign to" options). So effectively you are not really changing anything in my modded DLL files, this just lets you save the updated DLL files.

I have attached a grab of Restorator window opened, what do I do from here? Sorry to ne a pain :(

    • Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.
    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.
    • Real shame the 16 GB versions are crazy more expensive than this.
