Ok. for the second question. Open shell32.dll on a resources hacker.
Under "UIFILE" select the number 12.
Change layoutpos="Top" to layoutpos="Bottom" on this line "".
Save to the Desktop, backup the original shell32.dll and replace with the new.

For the first question, is too more complicated. I will post a tutorial and send a link to you.

on the tutorial i say "If you save the file and put it back on DeviceCenter.dll you will get something like this image. (dont do it)"
for the first question, ignore the "(dont do it)"
for the second question wait a little time, i will try.
