you double-click it and the vs loads in the appearance tab correctly? what happens when you press "ok" or "apply"? nothing at all? does it freeze?

make sure you delete all instances of uxtheme.dll not in system32, set the themes service to automatic, and put the vs in the proper folder: c:\windows\resources\themes\vs name.

you could also try manual patching. sometimes the patcher doesn't work.

EDIT: I figured out how to do it manually and it now works. Thank you :)

It just displays the skin that I am using now.

So you want me to delete uxtheme.dll from that folder:blink:nk:

How do I set theme service to automatic?

Damn this sucks.  None of the patchers work and the links for the uxtheme file in the guide doesn't work either.  You guys suck.  :huh:

      It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?

      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!
