This is due to Windows File Protection service . Download REPLACER and replace the modified dll files.

I think RESHACK and Windows Blinds dont go together?

 

[Vishal Gupta]

It may also happen due to WFP service. Follow what rakesh suggested in previous posts.
And if it get changed when using WB skins, then its different problem coz WB skins contain their own shutdown/log off dialog box images.
