Change Your Start Button In Windows XP (Advanced)

This can be with a HEX editor, but I have found that using a resource editor is much better. The one i will use is called Resource Hacker.

In resource hacker, open up the file called explorer.exe and go to the folder called stringtable>37 and the 1033 file you will see "start" in quotes toward the top.

Change that to whatever you want and then click the "Compile Script" button. Save the file as explorerx.exe or whatever you desire.

Now you need to go into the registry by typing regedit in the start>run window. Navigate to

Quote:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>Microsoft>Windows NT>Current Version>Winlogon

Double click on the entry called "Shell." Tt should say explorer.exe in the text area.

Change it to explorerx.exe or whatever you named your new file. Close the registry editor and log off windows, log back on.

Success!
