now this is funny. i was thinking of suggesting that people might want to do manual installs, and i ran across your post.
as suggested somewhere here manually installing would save any headaches with the api. i had a $%#@ of a time getting back into windows when i did the auto install. i do not think it was the installer, but rather tweaks made by rockers team when they tweaked the gui. :):)
This is getting old fast.
Once I take ownership and rename the original explorer.exe and replace it with the modified explorer.exe, every .exe (including ALL system files) I try to use gives me a "No such interface supported" error message and I'm forced to do a system restore via the installation disk
What am I glossing over here?
I'm using restorator 2009 - I wonder if that's borking explorer somehow?
Here is what I did...
Use restorator and once your done with modifing explorer save a new copy (through restorator) somewhere on your comp. Open up Windows and take ownership of explorer...also give yourself and all administrators full access. Copy your original explorer.exe to somewhere else (as a backup). Go to Windows and rename your current explorer something else and place your modified explorer into the folder as explorer.exe. Go into task manager and kill explorer process...restart explorer process. Should be fine now
