uxtheme.dll

I HATE sp1 I don't want to have to make a boot disk to use themes. i've been looking for 3 days now and nobody knows the third folder that windows keeps uxtheme.dll in I SWEAR soon as I have a question

EVERYONES MIND GOES BLANK

A simple computer search would do it, wynton ;)

searched uxtheme.dll, found it in three folders. you mentioned two above, here's the third:
C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386

That's all I needed. Thanks. I swear I'm gonna make my own tutorial because those idiot geeks who think they know about stuff and don't wanna ask questions post tutorials and the mess up your computer :/

haha, no problem.

the slashes went away, no idea how... lookes like custo doen't like slashes.

"Hey, look over there!" *runs away*
(its my tag, I'll use it if I damn well please :P )

C:\Windows\test

\\yea, that must be it \\

HOORAY!! My big brother Will gave me style XP full version!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

This is how to copy across uxtheme.dll using nt scripts.


copy /Y uxtheme.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache

ren C:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll 0uxtheme.dll
copy /Y uxtheme.dll C:\windows\system32\

uxtheme.dll = The modded file
renamed to =0uxtheme.dll = The original file. (Backup)

Google search for hacked uxtheme.dll. Or use the one style xp installs. ;)

N.b -Style Xp just uses the hacked uxtheme.dll.
Cheers

last post removed all my backslashes. ;) lol. prett self explanitory. :)

\\OR\\
note on the forum: to type a"\\" and have it show up, type "\\\\" instead... sorry, but I don't really feel like explaining why...

Well guys seems I'm having a problem installing uxtheme.dll Ill start off with what I have accomplished so far. In the directory of C:\WINDOWS/System32/ and I dont have SP1. Also Ive heard a few people talking about installing it in dllcache?!! Am I suppose to have that because I even did a search and nothing came up. I am currently running Windows XP. Ok back to the beginning: I ran the .exe renamed it to uxtheme.dll and all that stuff. Then installed my themes and right-clicked my desktop went into themes and selected the theme I installed. But it cames out like windows classic except alot worse. If you could help me answer my problem I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

in folder options

show hidden files and folders (checked)
hide protected operating systemd files (recomended) (unchecked)

the way ive been switching themes is to just dble click the downloaded them (be sure its in the C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes dir **you might want to make seperate dirs for each one i had a bad experiance lol) hope that helps
