Custom Themes, Icons and Start Buttons.

I'm having a minor problem. I can't use a custom theme because the files I need to modify won't (modify). I've tried UXCore Style and I've taken ownership of the files but when I try to paste in the new files I can't because it says the file is in use. What do I have to do to change these files? Strange that UXCore Style isn't working anymore

try putting the theme in %windir%\Windows\Resources\Theme then apply it

yeah, I know...it is. The problem is that the files that need to be modified aren't being modified by UXCore Style and I can't change them manually because they are in use

I'm currently using UXCore Style.. could you share the theme you are having problems with? I want to have a look with the problem :)

dude...it's not the theme, it's the fact that the files won't change and even tho i should be able to mod them manually i can't...don't worry, someone will come along that knows what i'm saying

Try changing your theme to basic and then log off and log on again and the file should no longer be in use.

If you happened to paste the files you were about to replac and windows says that the file is in use... try renaming the file(s) you want to replace first then move the file(s) into that folder

That sounded good but didn't work. Still says file is being used. It's really weird coz I've done this HEAPS of times

Ok, try uninstalling Uxcore though remove program or something like C Cleaner, then install Uxcore again, Make sure you reboot> important.

Hope this helps
