Change Text on XP Start Button

Hi,
I feel windows start button is quit boring , how about writing your name or your brand name upon it , yea it seems interesting and lets do it .
This is mine original taskbar , that i suppose what we call it :



Step 1 – Modify Explorer.exe File
As we all know its a binary file so we need a special editor to deal with it , we need resource editor for it , its a utility to view, modify, rename, add, delete and extract resources in 32bit Windows executables and resource files (*.res) and its a freeware so u can download it for free.

The first step is to make a backup copy of the file explorer.exe located at
C:\Windows\explorer. Place it in a folder somewhere on your hard drive where it will be safe.
Open C:\Windows\explorer in resource hacker :-



The category we are going to be using is String Table. Expand it by clicking on the '+' sign followed by expanding '37' in the similar fashion. Click on '1033', On the right side it displays a string table .


We’re going to modify item 578, currently showing the word “start” just as it displays on the current Start button.
Replace Start from your desired name .
Then click on COMPILE SCRIPT which is clickable now ( turned to grey ) . Now go to file -->> save as ( use only save as command ).


Make sure you use save as command only . Next save it by name explorerhiga.exe ( higa in my case ) in C:\Windows\explorer .


Step 2 -> Modify the Registry
Open registry incase u don't know how to open , go to run type regedit , registry opens .
then go to :-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ Winlogon

In the right pane double click the Shell entry to open the Edit String dialog box . In Value data: line enter the name that was used to save the modified explorer.exe file. Click OK.

Now close the registry editor and log off or reboot your system and see the magic .




Hope this helps you out in changing the boring xp start button .
