JohnDemolition Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 i just replaced the uxtheme.dll file with the new one that can support msstyle themes. however i am having trouble with it. the only problem that i see is that it does not skin the taskbar. does anyone know how to fix this?

Ultimate Predator Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Hmm, well this is what I did to get UXTheme.dll working perfectly (thanks ot CapMan): "Download the UxTheme.dll from Lunarsoft: http://www.lunarsoft.net/leech/uxtheme.rar Extract the uxtheme.dll file to your desktop. Restart in Safe Mode, Navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache, rename uxtheme.dll to uxtheme.dll.bak, Then copy the uxtheme.dll that is on your desktop and paste it into C:\WINDOWS\system32\DllCache. Then Navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32, rename uxtheme.dll to uxtheme.dll.bak, Then paste the uxtheme.dll into C:\WINDOWS\system32. Restart the computer."

JohnDemolition Posted December 18, 2005 Author Share Posted December 18, 2005 there's a program called Replacer which saves me the trouble of doing that edit:wow this is interesting. the problem was that there were 2 uxtheme files. one at C:\WINDOWS and one at C:\WINDOWS\system32. the problem was that the one at C:\WINDOWS shouldnt have been there. i just killed explorer, deleted it, and the taskbar was fixed. very interesting...
