Can I move shell32.ddl from Vista to Win7?
I have XP x86, Vista x86, and W7 x64 systems on different PCs. I use the icons frequently to customize folder icons; and I noticed that the SHELL32.dll and imageres.dll in Win7 have less a variety of icons (that I like personally) than does the Vista and XP O/Ss. Hence my question.
Can I copy the Vista file: C:\Windows\system32\SHELL32.dll to a scratchpad, change the name to SHELL32-V.dll and then copy it into the Windows 7 system32 folder as: C:\Windows\system32\SHELL32-V.dll ?
Since I predominantly use my Win7 machines, I can then utilize more folder icons from the Vista/XP platforms on my Win7 computer folders when I go to the folder properties/customize panel tab. Will it work? I’m NOT a techie.
Thanks!
