I installed a program that patches uxtheme.dll and related files for Win 7 RTM. I run any 3rd party theme, it doesn't apply. I opened the patcher again and it says this OS is already patched. Help Please!?(and yes I did restart)

Hi, I don't have any first-hand experience with the uxtheme patcher but I'm fairly confident this needs to be 'run as admin'. Did you do that?
Yes I did do that but didn't work. I found out later that the theme needs to be specifically made for Windows 7 or else it won't work.:)
My second question is, that is there a way to apply Windows XP 3rd party themes on Windows 7? I doubt it, but im just asking.
You can only porting a XP-theme with VistaStyleBuilder.
for exemple:
SlanXP 2.0 For 7 by ~mini-slash on deviantART
thanks, will check that when im back home.
