Hey, ... wondering whether you can provide troubleshooting for me. Neotheme doesn't seem to work on my machine. That is, it doesn't actually change the theme/style that applies.

I'm running XP Media Centre edition (so I'm not sure if that has a bearing on it). I have run the patch and restarted my machine, as per the instructions, then have installed the Visual style (I used area04 from deviantart and Inspirat also) and where applicable used the shell as well.

Then when I have gone to apply it brings up the display properties and looks as if it is doing something - but the "please wait" thing never comes up and the theme doesn't actually change.

Does anyone know what the cause of this could be? :whistle:

for those of you who've had trouble installing on 64-bit systems or XP Pro SP2, try downloading and running the UXTheme Patcher. this worked for me - as soon as I ran the patcher and restarted my system, the themes I'd been trying to install with Neotheme suddenly became available in Display settings.

I've tried neotheme in the past and I really liked it. I've downloaded it again and I have two problems. I cant find anywhere on the net for good theme downloads. When I finally find a theme I install and and click apply and the theme set display flashes.

Any Suggestions?

    • I understand Microsoft's intention here, at least I think I do. There have been so many printer driver related problems over the years due to OEM printer drivers not be compatible with the latest Windows update, that Microsoft wants to eliminate those by controlling the printer driver updates and keeping them compatible with the latest Windows update. That is okay as far it goes, but what it can do is put limitations on printers that wouldn't be there with OEM drivers since the OEM printer drivers are not universal drivers. It's a tradeoff and one can only hope it doesn't turn all Windows printers into $69 Brother printers.
    • Vivaldi is a very unique browser. It's the only chromium based browser that has its own powerful and fully customizable UI. It even supports CSS like firefox based browsers do. If someone wants a powerhouse chromium based browser, Vivaldi is actually his only option. All other chromium based browsers just tweak the vanilla chromium UI. It also comes from an ethical company that has proved its ethics all these years. Something very rare in the chromium world... (all other companies which develop chromium based browsers own an ad company, Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera etc).
    • I really wish Zoom would have been the collaboration tool most organizations ended up with. Teams is garbage.
    • While I agree that in some instances you should be wary of the government, shouldn't we also be wary of corporations that have the money, reach and power of many governments? Having good regulations is essential for population protection (from corps trying to make more money than the other guy). At least we can vote in and out governments, but these days your choice of consumer tech is now only a few very large players. And we also know "consumers" are idiots and need protecting, it's literally the government's job to deliver those services.
