Nice work ChaNinja!

One problem: My WinXP is now half Norwegian and half English :(

EDIT: Explorer.exe is not working as it should and I can't restore my old settings. I've made backups of course, but it don't seems to work. Well. Format C: for me. I should have known that it wouldn't work on a different language, but it was worth a try. :blush:

huh, cant edit previous posts.... i am also curious as to if anyone has modded their own explorer.exe and shell32 files with the chaninja ones, version .1221 for explorer and shell32 i dont know where its located :( thanks forany help!!!!!

explorer.exe and shell32.dll are both in the system32 folder of windows and the modded ones can be found in this thread.

ChaNinja, I tried to email you but something stopped me: I don't know if its something with your email or if my email server is just acting up again.

I was wondering if you minded me porting some of your msstyles to windowblinds. With windowblinds I can include the toolbaricons and the system animations. Right now for my personal use I have converted simplex to windowblinds and have all of the options working with it: toolbar icons, animations, shutdown and logoff dialogues, etc.

here's my email: mailto:[email protected]

Fantastic work Chaninja!

I've been using your subzero visual style and icons for quite a moment now, and yesterday i found out here that there are more ressources to mod the dlls! Great!

But if i could get my hand on the latest dll sample files (links are broken in this topic) i could export them more easily to my system files (french windows)..

Could anyone post the dll modified files again please?

I had thought that these got deleted when I reformated, but I found them on a backup cd I made. I've uploaded them to a server I have for my sigs and avatars. Here you go, enjoy. :D

Dll Mods

note: the server will be slow at times, but you will get the file. Sometimes it's slow during peak hours.

    • Rockstar confirms Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders begin next week, unveils cover art by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The release date of Grand Theft Auto VI has moved quite a lot since its original announcement in 2023, but it finally looks like the game has found its final launch slot. Rockstar today had a new video upload on its YouTube channel, and while it wasn't a new trailer for the game, the company revealed two things. This was the pre-order kickoff date for Grand Theft Auto VI as well as the game's official cover art. The company revealed that June 25 is when fans of the series will be able to pre-order their copy of Grand Theft Auto VI. Pre-orders will be available both digitally and in retail stores. The newly unveiled cover art shows off the two new protagonists, as well as a few more characters that are probably vital to the campaign storyline. Shots of vehicles players can use like a light helicopter, motorcycle, sports car, and speed boat are also seen here, alongside a shot of a crocodile. "Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them," says Rockstar describing the campaign's protagonist duo. "But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive." Grand Theft Auto VI is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on November 19, 2026. A PC version has not been confirmed yet, though it's expected by many to land after the console release. When asked about this, the Take-Two CEO says it considers the core audience for the Grand Theft Auto franchise to be on consoles.
    • In rare occasions when you turn your computer on you will be greeted with a Secure Boot error followed by the message "No boot device found" If you go into the UEFI and disable Secure Boot the system boots up just fine. Below is a method I found online to fix the issue Disable Secure Boot and boot into Windows (If Bitlocker is enable you'll have to go to https://aka.ms/myrecoverykey on another device to find your bitlocker recovery key). Find a flash drive and make sure it's formatted Fat32 Create a folder on the flash drive called EFI and a subfolder inside EFI called BOOT On your computer navigate to C:\windows\boot\EFI Copy the file SecureBootRecovery.efi to your flash drive\EFI\BOOT Now reboot the computer and tell the computer to boot off that flash drive. You should see a black screen with some text telling you it has repaired Secure Boot Turn Secure Boot back on and reboot and your computer should boot normally.
