StyleXP 2.11 and XP SP2 RTM

[WishX]

Any word from anyone on whether StyleXP from TGTSoft has an update that works with SP2 Final? I just downloaded their update for 2.11 that claims to work with SP2, but it doesn't work with the final. All I get is a pop-up box that says what versions of SP2 it works with vs. what version I'm using.

I wrote to them and haven't heard back from them yet. Does anyone have any information about this?

Note: Do NOT tell me to just patch uxtheme.dll for free. That is NOT what this thread is about! If you're just going to rag on StyleXP or troll this thread, DON'T REPLY AT ALL!

Thank you. :)

"Please download only what you need (2.0 supports Win XP SP2)"

I agree that it should work, but it doesn't hence this thread.

As I said in my original post, I downloaded and installed the latest 2.11 update from their website which didn't work.

SXP is aware of new builds of SP2. They'll have a new release for it shortly after the public release, or just before. Patience.

It's what happens when you want to rush to get things. :)

SP2 Visual Style Fix

http://vortex2050.dyndns.org:8080/reposito...ndows%20XP/SP2/

Replace your current uxtheme.dll with:

6.0.2900.2180_EN.rar 07-Aug-2004 09:32 97K

Use: http://www3.telus.net/_/replacer/ to patch/replace it.

You can now use all your favorite Visual Styles/Theme.

StyleXP still appears to be incompatible with this Final build of XP despite this fix. I expect a new version soon....

This is just before. I have plenty of patience, but I was looking for feedback from other people either having the same problem or possibly hearing back from TGT with a fix/patch.

Why even waste money on that garbage software. You would think if you pay for it they would give you professional looking themes. UXTHEME 4EVER!

Did you not read my original post, specifically the part in big bold letters? The part that says do NOT tell me to just patch uxtheme.dll? Did you miss that part?

A lot of people on here have this disease where they can still write... but don't know how to read. :p

For the sake of Pete, people!! Doesn't anyone READ POSTS anymore?

It states clearly in BIG BOLD LETTERS in my first post: If you're just going to rag on StyleXP or troll this thread, DON'T REPLY AT ALL!

So far the ONLY person who's been any help at all is pauluk83 and that's because he at least confirmed the problem!

GYAH!

Sorry WishX... but I do have some news in regards to THIS topic.

A friend of mine e-mailed TGT a couple days ago in regards installation on SP2. TGT software told him that there will be no update until SP2 is released in its final form (hence when Microsoft releases it to the public). Once it has been released (probably Monday), then TGT will release a new version to work with SP2 (by the end of next week or after).

Hope this helps.

Yes, see, that does help! You've taken the time to read my post and answer my question clearly and concisely. You even referenced it with what I assume to be factual information from TGTSoft. That's exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your time and for actually reading my post in it's entirety.

Edit: Nerts. Now I have to warn myself for spamming, but the system says I can't send a PM to myself. What do I do?

[markus10018]

I can't have understand the problem with StyleXP TGTSoft has. I use TuneUp Utilities WinStyler for this purpose and it worked flawlessly with every new build I downloaded. Maybe TGT should contact TuneUp Software... ;-)

You registered just to post that :unsure: WELCOME TO NEOWIN :D hope you will be nicer in the future

u deserve a slap round the face have you used Style XP 2.11 it has alot of other fuctions than just the visual styles. Do a little research before posting aloada rubbish about uxtheme having the same functionality as StyleXP, when the first post specifically says not to post about telling him to use uxtheme.dll. OK?

Thanks!
