Replace Windows System Files easily with Windows Se7en File Replacer

Download Windows Speedup Tool to fix errors and make PC run faster

Windows Se7en File Replacer is a program that will, backup the OLD file, try to “Take Ownership” and then replace it with the NEW dragged or manually selected file.

Windows Se7en File Replacer

Windows OS does not allow you to replace a system file. You first have to ‘take ownership of file’ & then replace it with the other file.

The Replacer will first look in the “system32” folder for a match with your NEW dragged or selected file, if the OLD file is found it will be backed up and replaced without prompt. Otherwise you will be asked to select it manually.

It works on Windows 7 and Windows Vista but may work on Windows 10 and Windows 8.1 too.
