bytesurfer Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 (edited) The RC1 watermark in the right corner is set by user32.dll.mui.The user32.dll.mui file is situated in your '\Windows\System32\xy-XY' folder (accordingly to your installed language):on english based systems in 'en-US', german = 'de-DE' [, ...].Here are 2 solutions to stop this Watermark being displayed:I.) Modify user32.dll.mui by yourself (for instance with ResourceTuner or similar programs) orII.) Replace original user32.dll.mui with a patched oneI.) You intend to modify the file by yourself? Ok, let´s start![1.] Create a folder 'C:\user32dll', switch to your '\Windows\System32\xy-XY' folder and copy the user32.dll.mui to your new folder.[2.] Start ResourceTuner (or a similar program) and navigate to 'c:\user32dll\user32.dll.mui'.In the treeview panel expand 'String', open Item #45 and modify the strings like in the image below.Item #45Do the same for Item #46 and #47. [3.] After completing all changes save the file and quit ResourceTuner.That´s all about the modding part..Now, we want to attach the modified user32.dll.mui to our System.[4.] In your '\Windows\System32\xy-XY' folder right-click to user32.dll.mui, click on Propertiesfrom the contextual menu select the Security tab. Notice: Before you are able to change the permission settings you have to get ownership of the user32.dll.mui file![5.] Click on the Advanced button. Click on the Owner tab; change your settings and get ownership of that file.Now you can edit the permission settings on the Security tab to get full access.Click the OK button to apply your changes.[6.] Rename the user32.dll.mui to user32.dll.mui.bak.[7.] Copy our modified user32.dll.mui to 'Windows\System32\xy-XY', Reboot and Enjoy!----------------------------II.) Download the modified user32.dll.mui and run steps 4.-7.Download English VersionDownload French VersionDownload German VersionI thank Lost SOul™ & Nesquix from www.aeroxp.org/board discovering this tweak in the English and French Version of user32.dll.mui in RC1. © 2006 Lost SOul™ & NesquixThe German Version is modified by myself. © 2006 ByteSurfer Edited October 31, 2006 by bytesurfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyfrog Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I can't download English version of the patch. Yeah, the link didn't work for me either so I took the address of the French version and removed FR from the file name. It worked, here is the English link: http://eoxus.free.fr/files/RC1_desktop_tag_patch.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
