    UxStyle " your theme subsystem has been tampered with"


    Hello all.
    I am on a fresh installation of windows 7 ultimate x64 and for some reason I cannot get this to install.
    it gives me the above error when I run it "your theme subsystem has been tampered with", I am using the correct version for windows 7 "UxStyle_Core_jul13_bits.zip"



    I have done some searching and reading around and the widely accepted fix for this is to run sfc/scannow as admin.
    But when I do that, the scan completes and says "Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations"



    and the same goes for scanning the files individually with scf /scanfile for
    uxtheme.dll
    themeservice.dll
    themeui.dll


    says no problems were found

    Having a similar problem, except my install isn't really "fresh" (I did install UltraUXThemePatcher, but it caused some issues with switching accounts so I uninstalled it). I did SFC /SCANNOW, SFC /VERIFYFILE and SFC /SCANFILE for each of the files in question, and rebooted several times, but nope. Nothing worked. I don't want to have to use something that modifies my system files because I kinda have to use other accounts sometimes. Please, someone help!

    Hi! To fix "your theme subsystem has been tampered with", you need:

    - unpack UxStyle_Core_Jul13_x64.msi manually
    to unpack, you can run command
    Code:
    msiexec /a d:\UxStyle_Core_Jul13_x64.msi /qb TARGETDIR=d:\UxStyle
    - copy file uxpatch.sys to C:\Windows\System32\drivers (or C:\Windows\sysnative\drivers)
    - copy file UnsignedThemesSvc.exe to c:\Windows
    - apply this reg file
    to apply this reg file, you need to run it as RUN AS SYSTEM, not the run as Administrator
    please search in google "How to Run a Program as SYSTEM"

    - reboot
    Code:

    To run regedit the easy way via a system level user, I use the now apparently defunct program runassystem. There's another at Sourceforge from I think Microsoft, but that adds a right click menu option to run something as system.

    Just direct runassystem to regedit.exe in the system32 or sysWOW64 folder. Launch and now regedit is running with system level permissions.
