naughty

brother if i want to know the date of installation then i just see the properties of windows folder & see when the folder was created.its the actual date when i installed my windows xp on my P-III

yes i changed the font if u dont belive then c the attached bmp pictures. Mr sebbe1991 is a genius and also he is a v nice guy who share his experiance with others. but 1 thing more this is just a theme file. what if i want to change the ui setting & want to make my own ui seetings with my own font. EDITING MY POST:- i think i have to give some detailes for these files that i forget to give so im editing my post the 1st bitmap image pastart.bmp is the preview of my work that i have done.I changes the font in my language which is PUNJABI. may be u cant read that font beacuse its in my home town language. the second image file is the orignal cut out of my destop's start button.u can c that its in english (may be in thomba font).i just change the text of it from start to naughty in this cutout. Pastart.bmp naughty.bmp

i think this cant give mr. microsoft much help. because in asia i think more than 50% user r using pirated softwares including microsft windows & they dont want to pay & now turing towards the linux. & what about the folk who never use internet nor download a single copy of updates & use only the pre hacked versions of windows. They cant count the accual ammount.

yes brother at the 1st search i cant find these files on my computer but then i download a 19 themes pack and this trick works for me i find a lot of winodws shell common dll files under ur mentioned folder (%windir%\resources\Themes\).then i try to edit 1 of these files in resorce tuner & i can edit these files there. but can u tell me that in which programing lanuages these files have been written. & most of all i think this is not a parmanet solution.im looking for a parmanet solution. Anywhy downloading TGTsoft stylebuilder brother ur a genius.

thanx sebbe1991 . this hint is enough.but a little detail will surly appriciable. THANX A LOT BROTHER. SORRY EDITING THIS POST Sorry but i just finished my search on hard drive active partion.i have windows pro. built 2600 in my active partition ( on drive c:). but i cant find the file mentioned above. is this file on setup cd maybe in i386 folder. i unhide my system files & system protected files too but cant find this given file. is it (dot).msstyles or its without dot.

Brother get data back for NTFS is specially for recovering files from new technology file system (NTFS). and can recovery files even if mbr is gone or rewirted by some virus attck or software. GIVING A TRY DOES NOT HARM U. If u really want to recover files from ur hard drive then dont write or save any data on that partition because if u save some data on that partition after system recovery then u will not be able to get ur data back from any software.

plz help i heard about shell programing with which i can change the start button font.is it right. i also read unattended guide of this forum. v nice hacks r mentioned in this guide.but nothing about start button font.i also read that how can we change the billboard's fonts & how to register that font in setup. if anybody here knows about it & dont want to share the experiance than plz atleast give me some hints. i will really thankfull to him/her.

Try get data back it comes in 2 versions one for fat file system & second is for ntfs .i think u have ntfs file system that's why ur mentioned softwares cant recover the files.

brother go to system restore & restore ur system to that date when ur dll files have been corrupted And restore it a day before just like if ur files have been corrupted on the 20 march 2006 restore it to 19 march 2006 .u will get ur files there.this can be done only if u have a system restore point there. may be this will help u. if not then tell which softwares u try to recover ur files

not a single expert in this forum still waiting for a gentelman
