A dynamic-link library (DLL) is an executable file that acts as a shared library of functions. Dynamic linking provides a way for a process to call a function that is not part of its executable code. The executable code for the function is located in a DLL, which contains one or more functions that are compiled, linked, and stored separately from the processes that use them. DLLs also facilitate the sharing of data and resources. Multiple applications can simultaneously access the contents of a single copy of a DLL in memory.

all files are found in the windows folder so...
all you really need to know is which file contains what icon, and check out post #1 (its got lots of good info)

Code:

When replacing a specific dll file in windows use the following technique (Using the HTCVolumeControl.dll as an example):

· Open Total Commander and go into /windows rename current HTCVolumeControl.dll to HTCVolumeControl.dll.bak

· use TC to move the new .dll file into /windows

· soft reset.

· You may now delete the .bak one.

...personally when manipulating files i use resco explorer, but that's just me :D

Thanks! and yes, that is exactly what I should have said! :mrgreen:

And I concur about Resco Explorer. Well worth the price, and why better than TC.

great feedback note well taken to say the least...after i carefully study the OP and your posted insight on replacing DLLs...i will take a jab at it myself...i have total commander on standby for a few days now...but i will take the advice on resco explorer...thx
