JenniferArden Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi all,A strange situation recently developed when creating a custom XP CD. I Nlite as usual, which includes settings, hotfixes and addons. I know certain hotfixes modifies shell32.dll and I know XPize also modifies shell32.dll, thats why I nlite, then xpize and lastly replace shell32.dll with my own customized version in the i386 directory. But lately when I do this (like I always have) my shell32.dll is replaced by an older version, which is impossible but it happens. All I can suspect is that somewhere there is another shell32.dll in the source files that replaces my shell32.dll in the i386 directory for unknown reason during installation of XP. I have (and always do) turned OFF SFC in Nlite.Does anyone have any ideas?Thank you for reading.Jennifer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viesto Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Probably one (or few) of hotfixes (KBXXXXXX) replaces this file. I don't have any other ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomadturk Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 For example, exFat hotfix is an example to that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-force Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Do you cab your modified "SHELL32.DLL" to "SHELL32.DL_" before you copy it into I386?If don`t, do you delete the original "SHELL32.DL_"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenniferArden Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hi, I also suspect one of the hotfixes, I do cab my shell32.dll with makecab to shell32.dl_ and I deleted the original shell32.dl_. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g-force Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 We should take a look at your "Last Session.ini", especially at the Addons and Hotfixes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
