Now you have a new and improved shell32 file. Once you've changed all the icons that you want, Save the file. simply right click on an icon that you want to change click on replace and navigate to your new icon.Ħ. and Voilà!! Tons of icons, actually most of the icons in the entire system. Once librarian is opened, open the first backup of that shell32.dll file. librarian is an application that can open up exe's and just about any file with embedded icons.Ĥ. Once Microangelo is downloaded and installed, open librarian. One of these backups is for editing purposes and the other is pure backup.ģ. To view these files you need to turn off 'Hide protected operating system files' and 'Show hidden files and folders' in the view tab of the folder options under tools in my computer. for this example we will use shell32.dll This file is located at c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll. While Microangelo is downloading you need to make 2 backups of any files that you will be replacing. We are simply going to replace the old ones with new ones. The key to understanding this process is knowing that many files installed in windows has embedded icons. But there is a way to change 95% of the icons that you see in your windows system. ALWAYS make backups!!!! Also NOTE: I am not responsible for any damage to your computer USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! I've used Icon Packager for the longest time to change all the icons in my Windows XP system. NOTE: Before using this tweak know that it is potentially dangerous to your system.
