ok so i want to change my alt+f4 shutdown dialog to look more like the one found in xp and 2000, with the pre-xp icon, the option descriptions, the font, and of course change sign out back to log off, i'd appreciate it if any one of you could show me how to do this edit: edited shutdownux.dll.mui in resource hacker, changed the font to tahoma, replaced the win8+ descriptions of the options with the win7+vista versions (yeah i changed my mind, i chose those over the winxp+2k texts), ect. and used winre to replace the original file with the edited version. however, the alt+f4 dialog didnt change. can anybody explain why it didnt and how to get it to actually change? edit 2: forgot to add this but yes, i did use the en-gb folder as my locale is the uk if you were gonna point that out  |

Well, it should be in your language folder. If you are modifying it in en-US while your language is for example, Dutch, it won't work. It will work if you do it in nl-NL when Dutch is your language, tho.

Windows likes to do this confusing thing where it will have multiple copies of whatever file you're editing in different places. Maybe it's in Windows folders, maybe it's in your user folder. If you're editing a file and getting no results, you may be editing the right file, but the wrong copy of it, in the wrong location.
