Run the script in PowerShell 146 | 2. Enter the string reference when prompted (e.g., `@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-9227`) 147 | 3. The script will display the resolved string value 148 | 149 | ### Windows_XML_String_Resolver.ps1 150 | 151 | This script processes entire XML files containing Windows string references and resolves them to their actual string values. Mostly intended to be used with the XML from shell32.dll.mun containing all the Windows task links. 152 | 153 | Features: 154 | - Processes entire XML files, replacing string references with their resolved values 155 | - Supports custom DLL paths for resolving strings 156 | - Generates a new XML file with resolved strings 157 | 158 | Usage: 159 | ```powershell 160 | .\Windows_XML_String_Resolver.ps1 -XmlFilePath "path\to\your\file.xml" [-CustomResourcePaths "shell32=C:\custom\path\shell32.dll", "user32=C:\another\path\user32.mui"] [-Debug] 161 | ``` 162 | 163 | ### Get-MS-Settings-Strings.ps1 164 | 165 | This script will find text strings of "ms-settings:" in a DLL file and output them to a text file. 166 | It is a standalone version of the feature built into the main script. Intended mainly for: "C:\Windows\ImmersiveControlPanel\SystemSettings.dll". 167 | 168 | Usage: 169 | ``` 170 | `.\Get-MS-Settings-Strings.ps1 -DllPath "C:\Windows\ImmersiveControlPanel\SystemSettings.dll" -OutputFilePath "SystemSettings-MS-Settings.txt" 171 | ``` 172 | - If not specified via arguments, the script will prompt the user for the DLL path, and output to the same directory as the script. 173 | 174 | ### Find_URLs_From_AppxPackage_Files.ps1 175 | 176 | This script fetches the URI protocols for each installed AppxPackage via their AppxManifest.xml file, then brute force searches for those URIs in all files in the app's install directory. 177 | It is a standalone version of the feature built into the main script, but might not be up to date! 178 | 179 | Usage: 180 | - No arguments necessary: `.\Find_URLs_From_AppxPackage_Files.ps1` 181 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /SuperGodMode-EasyLauncher.bat: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | @echo off 2 | :: Lines starting with two colons :: are comments 3 | 4 | :: -------------------- If the actual script isn't found, display an error -------------------- 5 | if not exist "Super_God_Mode.ps1" ( 6 | echo --- Error: The script "Super_God_Mode.ps1" was not found in the current directory --- 7 | echo Please ensure the PowerShell script is in the same folder as this batch file. This batch file just launches the script. 8 | echo. 9 | echo Press any key to exit... 10 | pause > nul 11 | ) 12 | :: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13 | 14 | :: Sets the execution policy for the current process to allow the script to run, then runs it. 15 | powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "Super_God_Mode.ps1" 16 | 17 | :: Alternatively, you could run this command yourself in a powershell window before running the script: Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process 18 | :: Which also would just allow scripts for that current PowerShell session, then you can run the script with: .\Super_God_Mode.ps1 19 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
