    Uxstyle not running UnsignedThemes service, tried everything!


    After noticing that i couldn't patch themeservice.dll with Uxtheme, i went to the interwebs to find a solution. Found the Uxstyle Core Beta, followed the instructions i.e restore patched .dlls, turn off UAC, restart etc.
    Upon checking the process list i found nothing, checked the services tab and noticed 'UnsignedThemes' wasn't running and i couldn't start it.
    Then i uninstalled, restarted, used the sfc /scannow command came up with nothing and followed the instructions again and installed. Still the process wasn't there nor was the service running.
    Used these commands:
    sc config uxpatch group= "File System"
    sc config UnsignedThemes group= UIGroup
    They did nothing.

    I've done everything correctly and it still doesn't work
    I can provide screenshots and logs if needed.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks in advance kind people :)

    Welcome to the Seven Forums

    It seems like you have done what is recommended not sure why it hasn't worked for you but do Option 2 of this tutorial SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker do this 3 times with a reboot after each scan.

    Then make sure the UAC is turned off/slider all the way down restart and try UxStyle again make sure you get the correct version X86 for 32-bit or 64-bit install it and then restart again and see if your theme will work then.
