Here you go... hacked the file myself. If you have issues with it, sorry! Just to make sure you know, this is the v5512 file with the Hex edited, not just a v5508 file or some such. :)

uxtheme_6.0.2900.5512_EN_checksum.zip

Also, an easy way to patch it is using "Replacer"!

P.S. If this kills your PC, sorry! But it's working fine on mine, see:

UPDATE - Fixed the checksum... let me know if there is anything else I missed!! :)

I just used the one from RC2 5508 and it worked, but I'll check this one out too. Thanks.

True, but this one is from the actual 5512 (RTM) release. Dunno if there is really any change between them, but it's the "correct" file in a sense. :)

No prob! Hope it works for all of you! :) It should, but if things always worked how they were supposed to, I don't this site would be as big as it is today. :whistle:

Totally of topic but your join date is in 03 but yet your sig says 02? :wacko:

Yeah, my first username (FlishFun is my second) joined in Jan of '02. :) I just need to see if there's a way to fix that (ie, change my reg date), one day. :)

EDIT - And yes, prior to me changing my name, staff was aware. Don't think this means you all can go a name changin'! lol

Thanks, will put that in my slipstreamed CD.

And I don't understands why the staff didn't change your name via the admin panel :blink:

AFAIK, If you know well an Admin he could change your join date directly in the SQL database.

Thank you FlishFun works fine so far.

I made a bat file that deletes the uxtheme from the cache dirs, and copies and renames the uxtheme.dll

just double click the copyren.bat and wait for the system files protection dialog, and tell it yes you want to keep this new file.

reboot, use your favorite msstyles

Actually that's pretty close to what "replacer" does (I mentioned it in the first post), but great job, nevertheless! :)

    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
