@prathapml: Great!

@kelsenellenelvian The shutdown box is part of msgina.dll. The "Shutdown", "Restart" and "Suspend" buttons are NOT icons. You can find them in BMP 20150.

paul3vanz Same here.

@kelsenellenelvian: Look in shell32.dll (copying, deleting...) and shdocvw.dll (downloading)

I'm not sure but try this: Open regedit and save these strings as a reg: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\ShellBrowser] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\WebBrowser] This also saves your IE toolbar configuration. I'm not sure if the "list view" is saved as well.

Windows ME is not the same as Windows 2000, anyway Windows 2000 is not very good with games. I recommend you Windows XP. If you cannot get it, install Windows 2000. I dont know if Windows 2000 can upgrade a Windows ME system.

@maxXPsoft: Ok sorry, but the CLSID is common for every computer, isn't it? So people interested in these reg tweaks may delete them safely. If you know well the registry you can make the correct tweaks with the information given in my previous posts.

@Halzions: We are here for many reasons, but the most important one is to help each other. Helping you has been a pleasure Here in MSFN you will find incredible stuff and you will learn a lot about computers as I do everyday

@evilvoice: Thank you for the corrections. I just tried these and they worked fine, so I posted them. Anyway, thank you again It would be great if you post your corrections ready to "copy and paste", so they can be included in the "RegistryTweaks.txt"

Another one: THIS LET YOU SELECT PATHS FOR SYSTEM FOLDERS (MY DOCS, SEND TO, ETC...) (CAN BE USED IN AN UNATTENDED FRESH INSTALL): [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders] Just edit the paths and export the string as a reg file.

OK thanks, I will try, but I hate opening third party apps to see whats inside a zip file. Maybe it slows my system...but it isn't slow right-clicking a zip + opening the app + closing it? it isn't faster double-click you zip folder and drag the files wherever you want? Maybe I prefer this because i got used doing things in that way...anyway thanks for your recommendation
