The standard graphics of any Windows operating system is pretty nice, but it can get boring. To change such a familiar "Start" button located in the lower left corner of the screen, you need to find the appropriate software.
Necessary
- - computer;
- - administrator rights;
- - WinXPChanger program.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the name of your operating system, or rather, its version. To do this, right-click on the "My Computer" icon on the desktop and select the "Properties" sub-item. The window that appears will indicate the name and version of your operating system. It is also worth noting that this menu is almost the same on Windows XP and Windows 7 operating systems.
Step 2
Next, install special software on your computer. It is best to use the WinXPChanger program. You can download it from the softsearch.ru software portal. On some sites, it can be uploaded in the archive, which means that it must be unpacked before installing. If during the installation process your antivirus reported a threat, cancel the execution of this file and download a different installation option. Always try to download only from trusted sites. Install to the system directory of the local drive.
Step 3
Run the program. Please note that it can only work under administrator rights. A small window will appear in front of you, in which there will be such inscriptions as "Text for the Start Button". Below you will need to enter the text, which will then be applied to the "Start" button. Enter the required characters, and put a tick on the "Remember text and put in startup" box.
Step 4
When you decide to return to the old look of the button, you just need to run the program again and take advantage of the option to restore the default graphic design. You can also simply remove the program from Startup and the system partition of your hard drive. To do this, click "Start", then "All Programs". Find the Startup tab and remove the WinXPChanger program from the list.
