Directions:

2.Use the Replacer utility provided to put the listed system files into your Windows/System32 directory.

IMPORTANT! Place Explorer.exe in the WINDOWS main directory.

Restart Windows.
3. Click on *emptyrecyclebin.reg* in the 'Extras' folder if you want to add that to your context menu.
Note: It's always a good idea to back up system files you're replacing. If you don't notice a change in system icons after restarting Windows, use the enclosed refresh utility.

That's an interesting question, Kali, and a good one. The system files I'm using were originally compiled last May. At that time I still had a machine with SP2 on it, so I tried them and they worked flawlessly, even though they were SP3 versions. I posted them as Vista for XP SP2 and Vista for XP SP3 on seperate pages and had a huge number of downloads from both version owners with no complaints. In fact two or three people, on average, a day are STILL downloading those old deviations with no untoward effects.
The files in Windows 7 Complete are the same basic files, with some cosmetic changes to the icons, bitmaps and menus, so in theory, they should work on SP2.
That is not true of ALL SP3 files, though. Notskrnl32.dll (the boot up file which is NOT included in this pack) has been changed in SP3. So while I'm reasonably confident you could install this pack on SP2, I would urge everyone to upgrade to SP3 on Windows Update, particularly as it's free. That way you can enjoy the newer bootscreens and logon screens posted here on :devart: without anxiety. :D :D :D

Wow, Kali, you HAVE been busy! I'm glad you upgraded, even though it's a pain in the ass (How long does this damn update take? you start wondering.)
And I'm glad you like this deviation.

Oh, and thanx for the Fav. You're the best!
