In a folder I have reshacker.exe and two other folders: "explorer.exe" and "logonui.exe".

I want to update explorer.exe (in D:\WINDOWS\) and logonui.exe (D:\WINDOWS\system32\) with an .ico file and a .bmp file which are in the folders with reshacker.exe.

I've been looking around for some explanation to the -modify command but I think this is how it is done.

Can anyone confirm this is correct?

@echo off
cls
echo Press CTRL+C to cancel now or ENTER to continue
pause >nul
reshacker.exe -modify %systemroot%\explorer.exe "explorer.exe\100.ico", ICONGROUP, 100
reshacker.exe -modify %systemroot%\system32\logonui.exe "logonui.exe\2005.bmp", BITMAP, 2005
pause >nul

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

just wondering as to why you dont do it normally inside reshacker.

Because there is a shell pack that I use but a couple of icons and bitmaps that I want to customize. I want to include the shell pack on my UA cd but have an option to install it rather than slipstreaming the system files. I will include this cmd file (with quite a few other lines) to update the system files to the bitmaps and icons I want. I dont want to do it manually on every install. But I know how to kind of do it now. But I only know how to replace ALL resources:

reshacker.exe -modify %systemroot%\explorer.exe, %systemroot%\explorer.exe, explorer.res,,,

But I am looking for a way to update only one or two resources.

you could try asking xpero how he created his NSIS installer for XPize as that has the same effect by backing up and replacing the older ones with the modified ones.

Install XPize and look for reshacker scripts examples in C:\WINDOWS\XPize
