Windows 7 - Theme - How to Apply Custom Themes

Ok somethin's wrong. I d/l the red fusion theme. Copied the Red Fusion theme to %windir%\Resources\Themes folder(as seen in the screenshot).


Then I clicked on the Red Fusion theme under Personalize to activate the theme. But nothing's changed. Is there something else that I need to do?

The same thing as last time the files you need to place there is inside the red fusion theme folder.

Ah now I know what you mean. Ok I got the theme running now.


next is to change the icons. I have d/l the Full Glass Icon pack by Mr. Grim. How do I install it? Is there a tutorial for the same?

Thanks.

thanks a bunch, it makes sense now

Thanks for this I've been looking everywhere for a reliable patch.

Hi

Guys do you think it will work in Spanish Windows 7 Ultimate ? (32bit), i was going to try but i'm afraid the diference between languajes might render my system unstable.

Yes it will. It will work with any language

Thank you, i will give it a try then !! =3

Hi - I am trying to install third party themes (just for changing the wallpaper, desktop icons, pointers, and sounds – no .msstyles files included - not trying to apply any Aero effects). I've tried using UxStyle (user account control is turned off) but after installing and trying to double click on a .theme file I get this error message: "This theme cannot be applied to the desktop". I know that I can re-create the theme and re-save it in the personalization area but I’m looking for something quicker as I have hundreds of themes. Also, is there a way to have these themes automatically show up in the Personalization area – some way to “import” them? I'm driving myself crazy trying to figure this one out. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help and for your time.

If they are just themepacks or theme files, just click on them. You dont need to patch system files or nothing since it isnt a msstyles.
