Turbonium Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 (edited) Hi, Just wondering if I can use one of my favourite XP styles for Vista (b0seClass Black). I'm already getting bored of the Vista layout after a few days. EDIT: Basically I'm asking if there is a uxtheme.dll for Vista anywhere...

Double J 7 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 i was trying to figure out the same thing u could find a patch for uxtheme.dll for vista to let you use 3rd party themes but when i tried to patch my uxtheme.dll and few other things (vista = different than xp in patching) it wouldnt work so i used VistaGlazz - u can find that here on neowin when i tried using xp themes on vista, they didnt work - u could try if u want UxTheme Patch plus other files which u need to patch = http://www.anti-tgtsoft.com/repository/ Hope this answered your question Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/586990-xp-themes-on-vista/#findComment-588842984 Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Hiroshi- Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Maybe because you can't use XP themes on Vista? The only real way is to convert XP themes to Windowblinds, and then run them on Windowblinds inside Vista.

I'm already getting bored of the Vista layout after a few days. EDIT: Basically I'm asking if there is a uxtheme.dll for Vista anywhere... The only way to use exisitng XP .msstyles is by converting them for use with WB using SkinStudio. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/586990-xp-themes-on-vista/#findComment-588843476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Blue01 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I really hope someone develops an easy way to extract all the bitmaps and code from the XP msstyles and put them in a new Vista visual style that the user would then tweak to get right.
