Changing start menu text?

[rixius]

:/ I've seen somewhere a tutorial on how to change START to something else you wanted. Anyone know how?

This will do it but not if you are using msstyles>

awesome! thanks bro

hmm.. some reason it keeps reverting back to start? how do i make it stay?

 

[Hipster Doofus]

Not sure. I can't use it as I am using msstyles. Click about & check the home page.

Looks like it's dead then. Have you tried a google for something similar. I'll see what I can find now.

I'd suggest to use Resource Hacker.

Open Explorer.exe in ResourceHacker, edit the word START in stringtables 37 (for xp-look) and 38 (for classic look), hit compile script, save as Explorer1.exe to the Windows directory.
Change the registry value for Shell to Explorer1.exe at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
reboot.
