Windows 7: change folders ( colours )

Hi Stereo pal ! I can understand you , exactly what you want to say.



Actually in vista or 7, almost all system folder view is live folder (half open folder with content peeping). It is not supported to change live folders with all the applications . You can do it with Stardock Iconpackager, I know it may be done with Microangelo, but never tried. All there are paid applications. A free bifurcate is the tutorial I posted in the previous post.

Whatever it may be, to get live folder working properly, you have to get the icons in the attachments other than what you posted. If you dont have those , your icons will not be changed for all looks.

It doesen't matter the forms ( shapes ?)of the folders.
If they are blue,all...and in the future,when i create NEW FOLDER, blue,that's fine.
Can you edit with resource hacker,in your PC,and than send it to me ?
I just replace the imageres.dll in my Windows / System32

Hi Stereo pal ! I use 32 bit system. Though I have 64 bit installer , and I can install it in another machine .

Let me know what version do you use.

NOW it is 2 AM here .... I will do it in the coming afternoon, and inform you that your stuff is ready .

I use 32 bit. Ok,Arc, i talk to you tomorrow. Thanks a lot for helping.

Here you are, Stereo

At first, Take Ownership of your original imageres.dll. Then rename it imageres.old or something. Now place the downloaded imageres in system32 folder, restart machine, and then Icon Cache - Rebuild . It should work, but only for large icon and extral large icon due to the icon used.

You use it. At the first chance I will make a really good one for you.

This is how it looks now Hope you will be happy, pal

Short answer yes, that is why I said to script it. However looks like Arc has a better way.
