[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

Hmm bitdefender detected C:\WINDOWS\Super Turbo Tango Patcher\Tools\wfpdisable.exe as a trojan (Trojan.Wfpdis.A). It is in quarantine now, is it safe to remove it or something?

Yes, it is safe. A number of security programs flag programs like wfpdisable as unsafe / a trojan. This is a false positive. Yes, it disables Windows File Protection, but only long enough to replace the files that have been altered.

This ought to take care of that issue. Sometime when I have an hour or so to dedicate to uploading, I'll post a full build to DA.

i don`t know what`s wrong but this fix didn`t fix the problem ?

If your problem is the reloader firing off on every boot, it could be a different file that's triggering it. Pop open the help file and follow the steps for troubleshooting that issue.

^ As Mozilla or MS during Vista testing might say, wontfix bydesign :ninja:

At first, I found the start menu folder icon change to be a problem, but it has grown on me. It makes sense, since while they are folders, they are for storing shortcuts only.

Just something interesting I found Tango-related, since someone already made a Guild Wars Tango icon:

The official wiki changed all profession icons to tango :)

Nifty. Of course, I want a full-size mesmer-hand SVG so I can wave that around, but nifty nonetheless.

Plus, it makes tons more sense if you have your program groups organized and categorized, like so:

I'm sorta getting the feeling that making categories-other a fallback for program groups isn't going to push people in that direction, though, and just get me more OMG WTF ORANGE PROGRAM ICONS?! emails.

What am I doing wrong? I have everything categorized, but some applications still display the orange icons.

Nothing. That's how it's supposed to be.

Is this ever going to support Windows x64? :( :( :(
Never. I don't have a scriptable tool to modify system files on X64, and even if I did, I don't have a 64-bit machine to even do a single basic smoke-test test on.

Is anyone up to the task of creating an updated Tango theme for IconPackager?

I found one here, but it's horridly outdated :(

Why in the world would you want to use IconPackager if you have an entire shellpatcher already done and up-to-date?

I recently finished an IconPackager package based on gnome/tango icons, and yes I use the patcher but the package is mainly for replacing custom file type-icons (though it does include the system icons aswell). The package is personal though, but if you'd like it I could probably zip and upload it.

Because I use Windows Vista.. and I'm not sure I want to try the Vista patcher yet.

That would be awesome :)
