Hello. I really need some help in customizing my shell32.dll, since I've tried several ways to reshack it with no success (apparently).
My path to current failure is the following:
1.- Copy C:/windows/system32/shell32.dll to Desktop
2.- Open ResHack and change icongroup 4 (the folder icon) with a folder icon i got from some icon pack.
3.- Save the reshacked shell32.dll to folder C:/Lab/
4.- Used ModifyPE (with -c parameter) to validate the checksum of the reshacked shell32.dll
5.- Deleted C:/windows/system32/cache/shell32.dll and replaced with reshacked shell32.dll
6.- Used "replacer" to replace C:/windows/system32/shell32.dll with C:/Lab/shell32.dll (reshacked one)
7.- Restarted Windows
8.- Used Reshack to open C:/windows/system32/shell32.dll
but the icongroup contains the original icon, no the reshacked one.

Note: I haven't disable the WFP yet... but I hope there is some other way. I set the automatic updates to manual (not disabled).

I really want to change my icons so i can finally go back to litestep.


If someone could give me a bulletproof way to make it work, or fix some of the steps i took.
