===========================
NOTE: If you are facing problems while saving the file after editing in resource hacker, then make sure you have disabled WFP (Windows File Protection) service using WFP Patcher, it can be found in our "Download" section.
Also if you are getting error "Can't create file...", that means you have edited and saved the file in past and there is a backup file which need to be deleted before saving this file again. Go to "System32" folder and you'll see a file having "shell32_original.dll". Delete it and try to save the file in resource hacker.
===========================
Following is a screenshot of RUN dialog box which you'll get after applying this tutorial:
1. Download the Mickey Mouse image from here. Convert it in BMP.
2. Download the attached AVI from this post. Its a ZIP file so extract the AVI file from it.
3. Open shell32.dll file in Resource Hacker.
4. Add the BITMAP and give it name 405 (You can give any name but this is what I gave in my Shell32.dll file, You have to give it same if you want to copy the same code as I'm posting here).
5. Add the attached AVI and give it name 111.
6. Now download following text file, open it and copy the whole content, then goto Dialog -> 1003 -> 1033 and replace existing code with the copied code:
Download Code
If you want Cancel button in dialog box, then use this code
7. Now compile the script and save the file.

where do I save the compiled file..sorry but i am confused..
VG
^^ You have 2 options:
1. Patch WFP service using WFP Patcher which you can get in "Downloads" section and then you'll be able to save the file without any problem.
2. Save the file at some other location and then replace original file with your edited one using "Replacer" (Available in "Downloads" section).
