Description
For 32 AND 64 BIT systems! My first 64 bit mod.I am no longer supporting this project. If you are interested in continuing the project, please see my journal for my project policies!
This is a simple modification of the Windows 7 system tray for those of us who like OS integration.
My other System Tray mods:
-Super Mario System Tray for Windows 7: [link]
-Relevamp System Tray for Windows 7: [link]
-OS X System Tray for Windows 7: [link]
-7 System Tray for Vista: [link]
-OS X System Tray for Vista: [link]
-OS X System Tray for XP: [link]
When Microsoft created windows 7, it revamped its system tray icons once again, simplifying many of them to simple black and white icons. However, they did not do anything about the Safely Remove Hardware icon. So, as a teaser to my upcoming major edits to all of my OS X system tray mods, I created an eject icon and replaced the original hardware icon with it. You can see it in the above screenshot.
To use this, simply download the file and expand it. Navigate to your system32 folder, locate your original stobject.dll and take ownership of it. Rename it to something like stobject_old.dll. Copy and paste the stobject.dll from the download into the system32 folder and restart explorer, log off, or restart your machine. Your new icon should be present.
As always, I have included the original icon resources I used to make this in the download as well.
This was inspired by the following deviant:

User Account Control. Go to your Control Panel, then User Accounts and turn it off.
