Simply copy your modified file to C:WINDOWSsystem32dllcache overwriting the existing one, then delete the one in C:WINDOWSsystem32 after which the Windows File Protection wakes up and replaces the deleted file with your modified one. You will probably still need to restart. ju_c I found an easier way to replace the comdlg32.dll file, although I haven’t tried it yet (if you do please report your experience).
