Hey guys, Ive been themeing for quite sometime and just recently I came across a visual issue with my start menu. I have attached an image:
startmenuissue.jpg


See how on the right side there is no edge? This issue doesnt go away. I have put the original back up explorer.exe back as well as the explorerframe.dll

Maybe the backups arent right? Is there anywhere I can get original 64bit files? Or is there another way of fixing this?

Thank you!

I did exactly what it says in the post and still nothing :(

Also, it seems that its not the original explorer.exe or explorerframe.dll because my forward and back buttons are all messed up as well.

Did you switch to the Windows Classic theme then log off and then log on before replacing the aero theme folder and the aero.theme file?

Yeah. I tried it 6-7 times. Completely cleaned out my theme folder and everything. I just tried a system restore too. I'm getting close to the point of re-installing windows. Or maybe just a repair.

So, nVidia surround is doing it. Any ideas on fixing this?
