    Visual Themes Do Not Work


    Hi All,
    I patched my Windows 7 Pro with this:
    UxStyle - no more patching.
    And it worked after a while until I accidentally changed to basic and now whenever I change visual styles I revert to this:
    http://i736.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1281355570
    whenever I use a custom deviant-art theme
    and :
    http://i736.photobucket.com/albums/x...g?t=1281355570
    whenever I use Windows 7 default
    Any ideas on how I get it working again?
    Thanks

    Check to see if the service is running in task manager : UnsignedThemesSvc.exe

    Ux Style NO MORE PATCHING;in this case use Universal Theme Patcher(before you proceed make a backp to the folowing dll:themeservice.dll,themeui.dll,uxtheme.dll).No other way to get custom theme in windows 7.Here is the link that explain everything for you:How to Install & Use 3rd Party (Custom) Themes in Windows 7? - Tweaking with Vishal
    BE CAREFULL AND USE THE RIGHT PATCH VERSION FOR YOU SYSTEM(X64 OR X86)!!!
