Hi,

I want to do the same thing but in command line, i used reshacker in command line to replace RCDATA resources ... but i can't update the version info section.

here is the command line i used:

ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite MyExe.exe, MyExe2.exe, version.rc, "Version info", 1030,

and i got this errors :

Error: Comma missing in - -addoverwrite Installer.exe, Installer2.exe, version.rc, Version info, 1030,
Error: invalid resource definition.

i copied all the version info of the visual studio generated rc fil in the version.rc file.

hoz can i update this ?

Maybe you can't edit because you don't own or have write rights to directory "%windir%\System32\". Try moving the file out of the "%windir%\System32\" directory to some other location, maybe your desktop, edit it there...

^^ After taking ownership, rename original file to some other name like "wmploc_original.dll" and then paste the modified file in "System32" folder. Restart your system.

Took ownership, used replacer (which failed) set permission to full control, and it will still not copy.

Tried the whole process in safe mode as well and still no joy. This is really frustrating!!!

Any other suggestions?

Take ownership of the file using following tutorial:

Or save the file at some other place and then use "Replacer" to replace the file.

I thought I did everything right.I changed all the lines from 7004 to 7000 and saved the file.
Then I hit the compile Script.It asked me If I want to save over the existing file, I said yes, but then it told me it couldnt save it. Help!
Says it cant save it

I followed the steps and compiled the script, when it cam to save it said it could not save the file as "%windir%\System32\wmploc.dll", i asked for it to replace it but no success, what to do next??
