Change the start button in Windows XP

 by jhchawk

Step 4: Change the start text.

Now that you are in explorer, on the left go into

String Table>37, and then click on 1003.
Select "start", or number 578, and change start to whatever you want. It can contain any number, letter, or other operation.
**** IMPORTANT: You *MUST* KEEP THE QUOTATION MARKS AROUND WHATEVER YOU PUT IN! Otherwise it won't work.

After you are done that, click compile script, and then SAVE AS (not save) as explorer1.exe
