Windows 7 Start Orb Changer: Change Windows 7 Start Orb With One Click

[Kishan]

Windows 7 Start Orb Changer is a free tiny portable tool that allows you to change your Windows 7 start orb with one click.

You can use Google to find start orb bitmaps and I have also added some start orb bitmaps in it.

There are two files in the archive:

Windows 7 Start Orb Changer.exe
and
r.exe

These two files should stay together otherwise it will not work.

If you find any bugs, just inform me about it.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.


Hope it helps

still not working

[Kishan]

^^Try doing the following:
1. Click on the "Change Orb" button and when the error comes click on Continue.
2. If that doesn't work close the tool, open it again and try changing it again.
