Default Homescreen - Windows Mobile

is it possible to set a default homescreen say if i wanted to cook a rom with sense disabled by default and spb enabled

Go to start-settings-today and look at your items... get the exact name of the SPB item and add it to this reg
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"here the name of the SPB item"]
"Enabled"=dword:1
make another entry for windows default (titanium)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Windows default"]
"Enabled"=dword:0
save the app.reg as always and import it into a cab and runn it into RUNCC or add that entries into a existent provxml...
I believe there must be a provxml that has this entries but i dont know wich one is that, the best way to do it is to go into the sys pkgs that contains Titanium elements and open the provxmls or wherever in the sys and modifythat entrie

SPB doesn't run on the home screen. It's not listed in the items and you can have a normal today screen and spb MS at the same time without the need for programs like secondtoday, etc. SPB has their own 'Show Today' function that will take you to the today screen.
OP, I haven't cooked spb MS in since it wastes too space for my Diamond, but I would imagine that it would be the default interface that would show up when booted. You could try to look into the programs that make switching between Today, SPB MS, and Sense (I think msskip made one...) and see if you can find any registry keys that are used to control what is displayed.

thanks for that guys, i dont actually want to use spb, i was just using that as an example, i actually wanted to use livens windows phone 7

[07/08/2008] Sashimi Tips & Tricks

Hi all,
This thread will contain several posts where I'll add some tips & tricks for SASHIMI. These will be tips like what registry keys to export for keeping the keys of certain programs, using Mortscript to make some advanced changes to the device, using XML-provisioning to supply wifi and e-mail settings, and some default registry keys I use and others may provide. Please let me reserve the first threads for each of the before mentioned tips & tricks
For downloading SASHIMI and instructions (video & readme!), please refer to Bengalih's original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392983
Please do not use this thread for any questions or responses. Only use the Sashimi thread!
If you provide tips, please use the code tags, [ code ] and ending with [ /code ], around your registry keys and Mortscript Code...
Regards,
Nika.
Application registration keys
Thanks to Moe558 (see this post), here's some keys for saving registration information of many tools:
WebIS Pocket Informant 8
WebIS FlexMail
WebIS Toolbox
SBSH Pocket Weather
SPB Mobile Shell
SPB WALLET
SPB Traveller
SPB FINANCE
SPB PHONE SUITE
SPB POCKET PLUS
SPB MATCHES
SPB MINE SWEEPER II
SPB QUADRONICA
SKTOOLS
START MENU PROGRAMS MANAGER
All of the reg-files are in attached zip (Registration-keys-20080807.zip). Download the zip and take out the registry keys of the programs you use. Make sure to check the registry on your device (use dotFred's TaskManager) to check and replace XXXX with the key displayed in your registry (this may sometimes not be your actual registration key!). If you have more of these, let me know and I will add them to the zip (and rename it ).
Make sure to add the file to your SASHIMI\Auto\REG folder and your application will be automatically registered when hard-resetting your device !
Regards,
Nika.
Attached zip-file contains several registry files that enable automatic configuration of most of my application. Hopefully it helps you to figure out what keys to look at, and export using dotFred's TaskManager.
Please make sure you do not simply use my files as a guidline to configure your device. They're all setup to my preference and also depend on the applications you install!
The following list explains what each file does:
Associations.reg
This file contains done through KaiserTweak and AdvancedConfig to save files to my Storage Card locations instead of my device.
BackLight.reg
This contains my backlight settings.
Beejive.reg
This contains my default Beejive settings (make sure to read the section about file backup in one of my next posts!)
BlueTooth.reg
In this file I've only added the keys that I've exported to add my BlueTooth profiles (for my headset & carkit) automatically. I only have to connect once and enter the password (I think the association-keys cannot be exported, haven't been able to get it to work 100% automatically) instead of running discovery mode...
Calendar.reg
My default calendar settings (enabling the alarm icon and such).
Camera.reg
Setting the capture delay to 0, enabling 6 MP Panorama Shots and setting the correct rotation - all tweaks from KaiserTweak and Advanced Config.
CommManager.reg
I use the 6 button comm-manager and change the bottom two buttons to 3G and ActiveSync. Done using Schap's Advanced Config...
FdcSoft TaskManager.reg
Setting the registry editor as the default registered application for reg-files using this file (first 4 keys), and changing some default settings.
GPRSMonitor.reg
My default GPRS Monitor settings (turning icon off and such).
HTC TaskManager.reg
Turns off the HTC Task Manager (as I use WkTask and QuickMenu).
Internet Explorer.reg
Set my device to use Opera instead of Internet Explorer, change the cleartype setting and change the default Search URL.
Mail.reg
Change the default mail settings so attachments are stored on the Storage Card, the file sizes are correct for download messages, and for instance the account picker is off. Most settings come from the mail application, some are from Advanced Config and KaiserTweak.
Owner.reg
My Owner Information exported using SASHIMI!
Pocket Weather.reg
This is the backup of Pocket Weather, changed a little so it specifies the correct keys and can be automatically imported using dotFred's TaskManager and SASHIMI. Pocket Weather creates a file which contains the correct keys, except it misses HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the key name.
Power.reg
My default Power Settings.
QuickGPS.reg
Setting QuickGPS to auto download...
QuickMenu.reg
My default QuickMenu settings.
Regional Options.reg
My default Regional Settings.
S2U2.reg
My default S2U2 settings (for instance turning the wallpaper off).
SIP.reg
My default Secondary Input Panel (onscreen keyboard) settings.
Soft Keys.reg
Changes my Start Menu key to QuickMenu, my PTT button to the Comm Manager, longpress PTT button to VoiceCommand, my Left Softkey to the NowScreen of SPB Mobile Shell and the Right Softkey to the Menu Launcher of SPB Mobile Shell...
SP TimeSync.reg
Set SP TimeSync to automatically minimize & timesync - see also the later section of automatically loading the timesync at startup.
Spb Mobile Shell.reg
My default Mobile Shell settings (mainly weather location).
Today Items.reg
Turning on (enabled=1) and off (enabled=0) many items on my Today screen and setting the Wireless, HTC Home and SPB Mobile Shell to "movable" (Type=4) as done by KaiserTweak and Advanced Config.
Total Commander.reg
Setting my default Total Commander shortcut folders (double click the folder entry bar) and some other options.
Tweaks.reg
Many, many, tweaks gathered from programs like KaiserTweak and Advanced Config (for instance: changing default ringtone, power management settings, hsdpa on, etc.)
VoiceCommand.reg
Turning off most VoiceCommand automatic notifications.
Volume.reg
Setting my default volume.
Weather.reg
Setting my right HTC Home weather location.
WkTask.reg
Setting up the default launcher shortcuts and settings for WkTask.
Whew.....that was about it - hope it helps
Regards,
Nika.

I'll put the XML Provisioning tips in here...
I have a script (added to Auto\Scripts) that automatically loads my favorite theme (thanks to juju-35, read here):
SetStyle.mscr
Code:
Sleepmessage(3, "This script sets a new style...", "New Style", 1)
Run( "\WINDOWS\cusTSK.exe", "\WINDOWS\Nice.tsk" )
Sleepmessage(3, "Done...")
Regards,
Nika.
As mentioned above some more tips for some of the applications that I have provided default registry entries for.
JiveTalk
Add your JiveTalk.sdf to the Auto\Root folder. I have installed JiveTalk to "\Program Files\JiveTalk" and therefore I have "JiveTalk.sdf" in the "Auto\Root\Program Files\JiveTalk" folder - it then automatically copies my JiveTalk configuration.
I also have a fileset in my "filebackup.ini" that backups the current version of the file:
Code:
[FileSet1]
FileBackupDirMode=Auto
file1=\Program Files\JiveTalk\JiveTalk.sdf
TomTom Navigator
For TomTom I've added the TomTom settings file to my "filebackup.ini" as well. This makes a backup of all my settings and I do not have to click through the default screens anymore (like selecting the language, etc.):
Code:
file2=\Program Files\Navigator\*.dat
file3=\Program Files\Navigator\*.cfg
file4=\Program Files\Navigator\*.bif
SP TimeSync
To automatically start my SP TimeSync after my first reboot of the device, I have added a shortcut (copied from the Windows\Start Menu\Programs folder) to the "Root\Windows\Startup" folder
Today Theme
To automatically load the theme mentioned in the Mortscript section (above) I add the theme (Nice.tsk) by having it added to the "Root\Windows\Startup" folder.

Nika.

Don't forget that some application may use files for registration. I always do a before/after export of registry and a search "files changed during last day" using Total Commander...
Hi all,
I might be moving this to a wiki as it looks like the forum doesn't allow more than 10k characters per post and splits up the registry files for some reason... more news soon....

How about you zip the reg files?

Thanks nikagl.
I think this would be best in the Wiki...with the main SASHIMI thread still as a discussion thread. I was going to suggest it when you first mentioned making this thread.
I just don't want people posting here with feature requests, bugs, etc, instead of the main thread. Also, in the Wiki, this info won't get lost.
Let me know what you are doing and I will try to link it from the main SASHIMI thread.
Also... don't spend too much time on XML provisioning yet... the new version of SASHIMI will be coming with a new app I've written called Makisu which will create XML provisioning files for E-mail and wireless accounts (it runs on the device!). I was going to add it into SASHIMI , but I made it a stand alone that I will release it stand-alone and with SASHIMI .
I think you guys will like it
It keeps on getting better and better - awesome work Bengalih!!!!
I'll convert it soon to Wiki format and add other information too... does one of you have a good wiki converter I can use to change the current html page into wiki-format?

hello Nikagl, great work, this info combined with Sashimi is just awesome.
there are some reg setting that i have searched for but had no luck, one is the setting used with kaiser tweaks for the scroll bar width, i like mine set to 10 and then the setting for image, music and video to the storage card.
thanks

Great thread. Personally the SPB registration entries are the most useful to me. Thanks for that.
The first time I configured Sashimi, I used the XML files from Kaisertweak and Advancedconfig to find registry entries. Maybe it's good advice for new users.
The XML files can be found and downloaded here:

Some more reg key locations...

"License"="xxxx"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Resco BrainGames]
"RC"=dword:xxxx (format this to hexadecimal data type)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Resco]
The whole string changed after registering Resco Backup, Explorer and BrainGain...
I just can't seem to properly isolate the Resco reg locations...

Shortcuts to Start Menu Folders from Manila Program Launcher - Solution

Hi all
I always wanted to be able to shortcut to start menu folders from within the manila program launcher but unfortunately it was not very straight forward to do.
I found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416092
and I've developed the ideas a little and come up with a cab which will allow you to link to your Connectivity, Games, Multimedia, System Tools and Utilities folders within the Start Menu from the manila program launcher.
First go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs and make sure you have the above folders, if you haven't you can create them. (Although I don't think it will matter if you don't, the shortcuts will just not point you at anything). You can then organise your .lnk files to your liking. If you haven't tinkered with your Start Menu set up already you will find that Games are organised into their own folder and everything else will be pretty much jumbled up. If you just want to shortcut to the Games folder just leave everything else as it is.
Then install the attached cab. This will provide you with a set of shortcut files that can be selected from program launcher as normal. (Thanks to Andrew-in-Woking and this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1782122 for the icons which I used).
I've tested on my Kaiser and TP2 and seems to work fine. Let me know of any issues.
John
Couple of screen shots.....
or in registry point the manila start menu to this...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\0]
"DispName"=""
"IconPath"=""
"IsReadOnly"=dword:0
"Path"="\windows\startmenu\programs\games"
"Command"=""
this will open games folder within manila startmenu.
But this will only work with the folders in startmenu, not settings.
if you want to map settings you will need to know the right path, i dont remember right now, but it can be done...
Somebody know the path for settings?
folderview.exe

You need to search for folderview.exe and open it with parameters if you want to display folders like games in the screenshot..
I'm at work now, if needed i can upload the file and some examples later today.
Good Luck
John Charles (OP), is that WM 6.5 or 6.1 in your screen shots?
It's WM6.5 but the folderview.exe it utilises gives the folder a distinctly 6.1/6 look.
as for a path for settings i don't think there is one. i found control.exe which again gave a 6.1 view to settings but it messed up the icons and wouldn't show today settings. I've lookyed for a similar exe in the wm6.5 windows folder (presumably the one that is executed when the left softkey under the tf3d settings tab is pressed) but i couldn't find anything.
Anyone know what the equivalent exe would be?

How do I get the "Programs" (with 4 columns) tab on my Touch Flo 3D? Mine doesn't have that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4174394&postcount=1
I tried the 'extend to 64 icons' addition but ended up removing it because it slowed down the program tab activating too much for me. (Hence finding out about the shortcuts above).
This works on my HD but can't stand the icons. I would prefer to just have a standard folder icon. Anyone know how to change these?
I tried smaberg's approach and I got it to work with some modifications. I have a Sprint TP2 with 6.5 and manila 2.5.2012. Stock ROM but MANY cabs...
I used PHM registry editor to navigate to:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\...]
this folder contains folders 0-8 corresponding to placement of the quicklink.
edit each folder for different shortcuts changing these values:
DWORD: "ContactFavorType" = 1566658532 -Decimal
String: "DispName" = (whatever you want the link named)
String: "ExePath" = \windows\start menu\programs\games.lnk (tell it where to find the link you want to use)
DWORD: "HomeServiceType" = 1 -Decimal
String: "IconPath" = (point at whatever icon you want to use.. it works with .ico and .png)
DWORD: "IsSet" = 1 -Decimal
These are the settings that worked for me. Thanks to smaberg for pointing me here.
Hi uhohh
Thanks for the information. Am running a TD2 with WinMo 6.5, Manila 2.5.20113030.0 Stock ROM, Max Manila Themes v3.0 (which allows me up to 20 Quick Links) AND a largish number of .CABS.
I managed to create a shortcut to to Windows\Start Menu\Programs and located it in the Programs folder itself. I used Total Commander to do this and create a 'Programs.lnk'. I then defined a new Quick Link and assigned the Programs shortcut that I found with all the other programs in the usual place.
I used then PHM registry editor to navigate to:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\...] and located the relevant folder (which in this case was 11 or 0 - 19, as I have 20 Quick Links defined) and checked the values below that you mentioned in your post:
DWORD: "ContactFavorType" = a unique decimal
String: "DispName" = Programs
String: "ExePath" = \windows\start menu\programs\programs.lnk (it had correctly registered what I told it to)
DWORD: "HomeServiceType" = 1 (Decimal)
String: "IconPath" = \windows\start menu\programs\programs.lnk (not pointing to a .ico or .png...but funnily enough neither are any of the other 19 Quick Links?)
DWORD: "IsSet" = 1 (Decimal)
When I try to use the shortcut I get the error noted in a number of other posts, ie, "Either not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found...".
I am therefore wondering if it has to do with the lack of pointing to a .ico or .png OR that I may be trying to call the Programs folder recursively.
Any thoughts? I would love to get this working as with all the .CABS I have 20 short custs is not enough and so a link to the programs to be able to run infrequently used ones would be the icing on the cake.
I hope that there is wisdom re. this out there!
Regards
Balders
ya, i'm seeing some other issues with this as well. I was cleaning house and deleting some unused cabs (i thought they were.) It looks like I had a cab that was doing some sort of voodoo. "shortcut to folders in manila.cab" If this cab is running, then it will work. It looks like this cab creates links (*.lnk) in your programs folder that redirects to another folder. ie.. games.lnk will redirect to games folder. You can still rename the link and change the icon with the reg tweaks. Apparently this was running when I set it up cuz it stopped working as soon as I deleted the cab. unfortunately, I'm not yet at a point where i know how to decipher a cab to figure how to do this myself.

[REF] Rotating apps using registry and finding classes

Hi All,
I have written this little tutorial by piecing togethor bits of info from other forums and threads. Some of you will probably know this already but this is for those who are struggling:
To get the g sensor rotating any application that doesnt do so already you will need to edit the registry on your device.
Using your preferred registry editor navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Here you must create a new string value. The name of your string is whatever you want it to be. The value of your string would be the path to the exe of the program you wish to rotate.
Once this is done you must then navigate to:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Here you must again create a new string value.
The name again is whatever you want it to be... the value would be the class name of the application you are attempting to rotate.
For example.... to get excel rotating with the G sensor:
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName
Create new string value... i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
windows\pxl.exe
HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList
Create new string value... again i named it Excel Mobile. Value is:
BOOKWIN
Create second new string value... i named it Excel Mobile2. Value is:
PXLMainWnd
Exit your registry editor and soft reset the device. Job done. Excel will now rotate within the open file browser (PXLMainWnd) and also within any open workbook (BOOKWIN)
For any particular app you should be able to figure out what the full path is to your exe but to get class names use dotfreds task manager:
http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm
Once the task manager is installed.... start your app... then start the task manger... go to applications tab and long press on your app which will be listed if it is still running... select details. Go to the windows tab... this screen will list all of the classes currently accessed by your app. Ususally the ones to add into the whitelist will be the ones that are preceded by the app name but not always.
To get you guys started here are the settings for word:
windows\pword.exe
and you need to add two classes to the white list:
WordPad
Pocket Word
Remember that class names are case sensitive.

bump cos ive changed the title!
can you find the modulename/whitelist for the messaging (SMS/MMS) tab? It's the only one I have trouble rotating.

thank you, and take your time =) btw, I just wanna be clear that I didn't mean the messaging tab on the home/sense screen, I meant the default win6.5 screen.
Thanks for this post, I am trying to find the details for a new app called DynaInk. I've followed your instructions and I am about to see if it worked?
*** Drum Roll ***
It worked, I used #NETCF_AGL_BASE_
Thank You
I applied this trick for Notepad which is a simple text editor that doesn't even require installation:
http://www.shamasis.net/projects/notepad-mobile/
After installing Dotfred's Task manager it showed me several string values for Notepad.exe and one of them was same as Nighthawk's DynaInk: #NETCF_AGL_BASE_ so I added it for my Notepad.exe.
Now it rotates with G-sensor
Thank you, Audio Oblivion for this guide!
p.s. What kind of damage to the device could possibly be done by adding those strings with those values? One could delete them if there's no result ?!?
Great post, works very well except for 1 program.
Perhaps you can help me out with the class name of TomeRaider3.
Program is TomeRaider3AU.exe, but for the Whitelist entry I always get different ClassNames when I start it as just like: "Afx:83ab6eaa:0, next time I get Afx:d54d7832:0, and so on.
Can anyone please help me out with this ?
many thanx in advance
Edit: Found the solution. I have added a ModuleName Wikipedia with Value "\Programme\TomeRaider3\Wikipedia.tr3 and a Whitelist entry for Wikipedia called "Dialog", for the Whitelist entry of TomeRaider I also used "Dialog", now it works very well.

I launched the default wnimo messaging screen and saw a process called tmail.exe appear.
search for tmail.exe on you device and use its full path as the module name. its probably windows\tmail.exe
for class entry in whitelist try: Dialog
If thats not it then start messaging, lauch dotfreds task manager, long key press on tmail.exe... click on windows and try every class you see!
I have now found that gyrator works quite well if you want EVERY screen on your device to rotate with the acceleromter... however... even though it is set to rotate everything... not all windows work. I still had to add in certain aspects of SPB shell to the whitelist for instance. Also... HTC Sense homescreen doesnt like being rotated.

You wont damage your device if you follow my instructions carefully. The values you are changing are safe to add, delete and edit at any time (although dont touch what is already in the registry before you started adding to it). The discalimer is there in case someone messes up their registry by doing something incorrectly!
What about the programs that have the same Class name eg. "Dialog".
As i noticed it's enough to add process name to ModuleName or Class Name to WhiteList. No need to put both.
Better to use ModuleName if you have several applications that both have eg "Dialog" but one of them you do not want to rotate.
Eg. Nimbuzz - Dialog, HTC phone app - also Dialog. I do not want to rotate Phone So for me works only the ModuleName for the Nimbuzz.
For other apss I only include data to whitelist In fact there is two lists - by process name and by Window class...
Is there a similar way to enable the "Pinch to Zoom" feature for programs by just adding the programm to some registry entries?
TomTom
This is great
added TT7 = MunichWinClass to the white list.. now I can use TomTom in landscape
Thank you for this information.
I've done 3 programs;
Resco Explorer 2008
ModuleName
\Program Files\Resco Explorer\Explorer.exe
WhiteList
RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS
and
Palm Digital Media eReader for windows mobile
ModuleName
\Program Files\Peanut Press\eReader.exe
WhiteList
PalmDigitalMediaWin
IME
and
1-Calc
ModuleName
\Program Files\OmegaOne\1-Calc\1-Calc.exe
WhiteList
Dialog
I can't take responsibility if these changes don't work for someone or if they brick their device.
Google maps, OziExplorer, File Explorer & Garmin
Thanks for the detailed info

Not working
Hi all,
I have tried to apply this procedure but my applications still do not rotate.
I have tried both modifying the registry by hand, and using BsB Tweaks to rotate Excel but with no success. Any suggestions to share?
EDIT: I have tried disabling and re-enabling the Rotate feature (AutoRotation -> 0 -> 1), resetting the phone after each change, and now NO APPLICATION will rotate: not even HTC messaging nor the Sense Pictures tab.
HELP!!!!
EDIT 2: Solved! I've just found out by pure chance that rotating works only counterclockwise, while I assumed it should work both ways!

[SOLVED] Setting default city on first boot

I have been able to clear all the unwanted cities and disable the current location on my rom as I do not need them. I now want to set the city of my choice on first boot. Every time I try it on the clock I get my location instead of the city and I then have to go in and select the city from the list. The reg keys I use are:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Weather.EnableCurrentLocation"=dword:0
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Weather.CityList"="EUR|UK|UK002|BELFAST"
"AccuWeatherCode"="EUR|UK|UK002|BELFAST"
"CityName"="Belfast"
"Weather.CurrentCity"=dword:1 - This sets the city you want as default in weather tab
"WorldClock.Location"=dword:1 - This sets the city you want as default in the home clock
Solved: the above entries worked perfectly for me. As soon as I booted the phone up. It automaticly set the time and set the city to Belfast. HD2Owner was right. Newtownards was not in the manilla file. I will have to edit the file at a later date.
I have the HD2 and using the leo 3.14/1.66 base which is my own mix and sense 2018! using osKitchen Zero
GhostXSeries, concerning your custom first boot settings (I mean all your questions - not only the city but 24 hours and other things like WiFi, facebook, twitter, mail and other things setup, owner name and so on).
I don't know what kitchen do you use - so - general proposal:
Flash rom, than make full registry backup without setting up anything (Resco Registry or Registry Workshop on PC)
Than - adjust everything, set up all your stuff, restart device and than make the second registry backup.
Compare both registry backups (with CompareIt or other program). Save the difference to one rgu file. Create package with this rgu and simply cook it in next time you make the rom.
Cool will do, forgot to mention I use oskitchen.
I was able to se the time ok to 24 hours. I got the registery keys for that!
did you know that osbuilder supports registry preview...? (including or excluding provxml on preview possible)
anyways... check out this key after setting up your phone...
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"Weather.CurLocInfo"=""
also make sure you use specific weather database for every lang (that differs for regions).
weather database file is 2330fc3c_manila.
there is also a weather database editor on xda to add more cities.
You were close but that reg key doesn't exist on my device. I did find what I needed though. There were two extra entries I needed:
"Weather.CurrentCity"=dword:1 - This sets the city you want as default in weather tab
"WorldClock.Location"=dword:1 - This sets the city you want as default in the home clock

[Q] Change icons and create shortcuts on W.M.

Using my Windows Mobile device,I ve learned how to create shortcuts in Programs
and Now I have anything I want in Programs but I don't like some icons :
---How can I change program's icons? (for example camera icon)
---How can I change folder's icons? (for example Office folder is different from other folder)
---How can I change standard folder's icons?
---How can I insert shortcut in Settings? (Personal,System,Connections?)
I have searched on Internet but I haven't found anything...
Thanks

But does it exist a manual way, without sktools? (insert the icon I want in a system folder...change something...)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Be aware the icons must be located in so-called resource DLLs or EXEs, where you pick them off.
Don't know of another tool than SK Tools. But of course there might be others, too. GIYF.
And you can try to edit all registry entries related to file-types and folders; seach for example the registry for all occurring "DefaultIcon\Default" subkeys and replace there the icon's location - note that this makes only sense if registry is hive-based.
