hush66 Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 I just noticed that you want to change the text, and not the picture, of the System Properties dialog. That means that the information I provided above is wrong.

hush66 Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 musicmaster said: howo i replace shell32.dll? This I can answer. Manual method: (1) Boot into Safe Mode (press F8 while booting). (2) Go to Windows\system32 folder and rename shell32.dll file to shell32.bak (3) Copy the new shell32.dll to this folder. (4) Go to Windows\ServicePackFiles folder and rename shell32.dll to shell32.bak. (5) Copy the new shell32.dll to this folder. (6) Reboot. (7) If icons don't change, rebuild the icon cache using TweakUI. Or you can use the program Replacer.
