How to Change the Start Button name

Did you know that you can change the start button name to your name! Or to your desirable text! So let's say goodbye to the "START" label and welcome to something else.

There are 3 different ways lead to the same result "change the start button name"

First Way:

This is the easiest and fastest way to change the start button name by a small program called "Start Button Re-Namer"

2 - Extract the file.

3 – type your desirable text in the New Label box.

4 – Click on Rename it! button, you will hear a sound like booom! the Start button name will be changed, Congratulation!.

Second Way:

this is only for advanced users, Be careful! Proceed with your own risk

This process through the Registry and Resource H@cker program.

2 – Open the Resource H@cker.

3 – Now click on File –> Open

4 –Go to the Windows folder, In the text box type explorer.exe then click on Open

5 - Expand String Table –> 37 then click on 1033

7 – Click on Compile Script above.

8 – Click on File –> Save As

9 – In the step number "6" I wrote "4xptricks" so I will save as 4xptricks.exe (Replace 4xptricks by your desirable text).

12 - then type this command :

Regedit

13 - Then click on OK.

HKEY_Local_Machine–> Software –> Microsoft –> Windows NT –> CurrentVersion –> Winlogon

15 – from the right side Double-Click on "shell"

16 – in the text Box I will replace explorer.exe by 4xptricks.exe (Replace 4xptricks by your desirable text).

17 – Click OK.

18 – Now Restart your computer and the Start button name will be changed!

Third Way:

this is only for advanced users, Be careful! Proceed with your own risk

This process through the DOS Editor

1 - Click on Run.

2 - then type this command :

cmd

3 - Then click on OK.

4 – Type edit in the DOS window.

5 - from the window Choose File –> Open.

6 – You will see a text box this code "*.*" written in it, Delete the "*.*" and write explorer.exe then make X in OPEN Binare option.

7 – Click OK.

8 - many characters and Symbols will appear, Find for the word "START" (It may take a minute to find) Possible to find more than "START" landing is marked with a rose, When you find it Replace "START" with your desirable text.

9 - Click File –> Save

10 - then File –> Exit

11 - Restart your computer and the Start button name will be changed!
