OK, new refresher is much better. Everything is fine now. If it only does not change order of icons it would be great.

I tried what you suggested for My Computer icon but problem is the same. Any other suggestion?

Cheers ;)

OK, I got it. I just run reloader again, rebooted and explorer.exe got patched. Only thing that is problem now is this IE7 thing, and only solution I see is some exclude list which I already mentioned. BTW, great work with new pack.

Oh, almost forgot this. I already mentioned that logoff text is returned on reboot, but I noticed that even the text is removed patcher shows option "Remove logoff text" as active. So it does not detect that text got back.

Cheers ;)

well, as far as i see... i have to figure out what file is making WU do that, and take it out the pack...
thats all i can do for now.

i hope i can build a exclude list in the patcher, but maybe i just have to start again...
and build a new patcher from the ground up, new things learned, and new things found in Autoit so :D

i will think about it man.

and the logoff text is certainly a thing that can be improved, want to see?
you as fellow AI scripter? maybe we can figure it out together :D

OK, I can try to help. Maybe you can send me part of code that handle removing that text so I can take a look and see if I can improve it.

Cheers ;)

Another suggestion, I saw that the icon in the upper corner of Windows Media Player 11 was still the default one.
So I searched in wmploc.dll to find and replace that icon.
I found many of WMP11's default icons in BMP format, I replaced them all to be sure.
And this is the result...

I replaced original BMPs with ResourceHacker, as I don't know how to add them in the pack...
I attached a ZIP file with the Bitmaps to replace: 101.bmp, 2178.bmp, 4012.bmp and 4013.bmp in wmploc.dll.
I hope you like it ;)

PS I saw a long list of very old bitmaps in wmploc.dll (even some WMP8 resources!), and I don't even know if they're still used... :blink:

Attached File(s)

I agree that there are many many old resources in wmploc.dll, and that something should be done about it. It's just idiotic that M$ left those, it's like they are doing that intentionally.

This is good suggestion. Damian you should definitely include this. Resource which needs to be replaced for this icon is 4012, but it won't hurt if you replace it all.

Cheers ;)

Sure, why not. :D

Cheers ;)

EDIT: I just looked at my Windows Media Player and I sow that all resources already suggested should be replaced, because with that replace icon in WMP when it's minimized in toolbar is replaced too, so it's cool.

I don't think so.
I think It's a problem of the pack if the original bmp is 25x20 and your is 16x16.
