i want to change my start menu name, what should i do?
help me!
i am new at here so i don't know this thread is discussed before.

This is not recommended if you are not sure what you are doing. This needs resource hacking of explorer.
Find out detailed steps here

This shall help:

i presume u r talking not about username (which occurs on the startmenu); but start button text...
click Utility to Rename Start Button

^^ thts right but u see.. tht utility is not pefectly doing it as it is meant to.... after sometime..(say 5 minutes or so) the original text (START) replaces the modified text...

^ I think the explorer.exe itself restores automatically. Its a feature of Windows file protection.
You better read this article for disabling it.
But I am not sure whether it will work.

Just edit %windir%\Explorer.exe file in Resource Hacker

U can find a tut on Resource Hacker in "Tutorials" section
