Can't move files from folder to folder

[Dovahkiin321]

Hello, I am trying to install a theme and I need to replace the shell32.dll... So I took ownership of the original, renamed it shell32.dll.backup, and then tried dragging the new shell32 in... It said it moved, however, I looked in the System32 folder and there is no shell32.dll, only the backup. It will not move files to any other folder than the one it is currently in... Any help is appreciated

Did you view there after enabling the Show System Files and Folders on the options

Well I waited a while to change the explorerframe.dll and it worked, so then I tried shell32.dll and it didn't work.

Welcome to Seven Forums . First I suggest you make a complete system image, just in case anything goes awry.

Or use Acronis, Macrium Reflect, etc. Whichever imaging program you prefer

Now try using System File Replacer by ~xuliikoo on deviantART

See if that works.
