that question is interpreted as "where do I get the images to replace the ones in the system files"

the only other thing I could infer is that you want to know where in those files are the cursors and icons are, in which case you will have to be a little more specific as to which icons/images you want to start with first.

thats cool, you will probably have to just:

1) copy your source over

2) extract the file you are modifying (as it will probably be cabbed looking something like shell32.dl_)

3) modify the file

4) makecab the file again and replace it in your source.

There is nothing about icons

Help me please

U can try IcoFX tool to create the required iconset once you set your eye on your desired image (e.g in png,ico). Then use resource hacker or Restorator to change e.g explorer.exe resource.

U need to learn how to use tools like IcoFx or resource hacker or Restorator though.
