Vista themes - Link?

Featured Replies

No Google skills here so I have a question where I can download different themes for vista like black, etc.

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

There is a section on Deviant art for themes like that, clicky, if the link dies go to DeviantArt.com, click on Categories and do Customization > Skins & Themes > Windows Vista Utilities > Visual Styles, then click on All Time, hope that helps.

Thank you for your time :) .

 

 

 

Edit: I don't seem to know where to put it, may I ask where?

That's XP right? I'm running Windows Vista so it does not seem to work for me.

Thank you for posting the same link I posted, and I found this.

 

 

 

Step 1: Download http://guimods.com/forum/windows_vista_customization/91-windows_vista_uxtheme_patcher-new-post.html]Windows Vista UxTheme patch.

 

 

 

How to install

 

 

 

1. Login as a user with Administrative privileges -or- have Administrative credentials ready (check under the keyboard for a slip of paper).

 

2. Navigate to %systemroot%\System32

 

3. Right-click uxtheme.dll and click properties.

 

4. Take ownership of the file and close dialogs.

 

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for themeui.dll and shsvcs.dll

 

6. Right-click uxtheme.dll and click properties.

 

7. Give yourself (or group) Full Control permissions and close dialogs.

 

8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 for themeui.dll and shsvcs.dll.

 

9. Rename uxtheme.dll to uxtheme.old.

 

10. Rename themeui.dll to themeui.old.

 

11. Rename shsvcs.dll to shsvcs.old.

 

12. Copy patched files into %systemroot%\System32

 

13. Reboot (yes, this is really required)

 

 

 

Step 1b: If you find the above too intimidating, download VistaGlazz and just run it, it automates the whole patching process so you don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t have to worry about it! It is basically like Neowin uxtheme patcher we used to have for Windows XP.

 

 

 

Step 2: Download a Windows Vista Visual Style and copy the theme to Windows/Resources/Themes folder.

 

 

 

Step 3: Right click on desktop and click on Personalize. From the page that pops up, click on Theme and choose your newly installed theme!

 

 

 

Hope that works.

Thank you for posting the same link I posted.

 

 

 

And thank you for being a jerk for no reason. I just misread what he said, it's not that big of a deal.
