No vista desktop modification is complete without changing the system tray icons.

Now if you want to really make your Windows Vista appears to be Windows 7 you'll have to use this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've used Microsoft Windows 7 resources (build 7000) to recreate the taskbar icons on vista, which includes:

:bulletblue: Volume
:bulletblue: Network
:bulletblue: Power
:bulletblue: Security Center


-----------------------------------------------------------------------

:bulletred: Note: All files are for Vista 32bit version Vista 64bits files can be found here: [link]

Here you can download Windows XP version too... it needs an update but right now you can use the battery icon...

link: [link]

tested by ~winterwarm using this program that replaces the files on XP [link]

Change log

:new: Windows XP support (battery)
:new: Security Center icon fixed, now it displays the Extra Large Icon
:new: 64 Bits support added
:new: Security Center icons changed to Action Center ones
:new: New Wifi icon
:new: Network animation (a really simple approach)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

:windows: Installation :windows:

:bulletred: Take ownership of the files in X:\Windows\System32\
:bulletred: Rename them to name-of-file_backup.dll just to be sure you can repair any damage done
:bulletred: Copy the files provided at the same location
:bulletred: Restart or log off and on

Note: Change the extension of the original "wscui.cpl" to "wscui.cpl.something" if you don't you'll have two Security Centers in Control Panel

They are tested to work properly, if you find a bug please let me now. Also I'm not held responsible for any damage caused by you, use it at your own risk.

I'm using it right now, the screenie provided was taken using the style from ~giannisgx89 and my icons.

Feel free to use it in whatever you want as long as you give me the credit :P

Credits to Microsoft for the resources used.

enjoy and comment!!!!

:iconalex989:
thank you! ... yeah they are almost the same the difference is that these are completely white the vista ones have some colors...
:iconalex989:
you could give me the files and i'll do what i can :P
:iconbuschido778:
well which ones would you need
:iconalex989:
mmmmmm i really dont know... you could download the my package and search all those dlls in your system32 folder; if you found them rar them and pm me with a link :P, if you dont, well let me know to start searching on my own... but since i dont use xp anymore, it'll take more time to find them...

Thank you! It looks great, however my tray icons are not centered. There are in two rows (the day of week is visible too). Can you help me? Is there any way to make the tray back into one row of icons instead of two?
:iconlofblom:
I use 64bit. Can you fix?
