For some reason this fix is a joke to me. The reason for this is because i can't simply get it to work. I booted into safe mode and changed all of the three file's extension from .dll to .BAK. I then copied the other three (The modified ones) to my system32 folder and rebooted. Afterwards, i booted back up and when i tried to login i was given the error: Windows could not find Uxtheme.dll. Now, this is very tedious as i just introduced a new uxtheme.dll and only backed up the old one....(What to do?) Any help would work

-go to safe mode

-rename the rplaced files to any name e.g uxtheme.dll.old...etc

-now you have tow types of files 3 files (shsvcs.dll.old,themeui.dll.old and uxtheme.dll.old) and (shsvcs.dll.bak,themeui.dll.bak and uxtheme.dll.bak)

-rename the files (shsvcs.dll.bak,themeui.dll.bak and uxtheme.dll.bak) to orriginal name (shsvcs.dll,themeui.dll and uxtheme.dll)

-this proplem occurs when use a files for windows vista 32 bit on a system who run windows vista 64 bit and Vis-versa

-be sure your windows type 32 or 64 bit and use Proper files

-if you can't access save mod you can replace your files directly from NTFS booting supporting disk to booti from it and using suitable ntfs dos programe like volkov commander navigate to files place and replace

Read the instructions! You are not supposed to boot to safe mode. You should take ownership.

-go to safe mode

-rename the rplaced files to any name e.g uxtheme.dll.old...etc

I don't see anything wrong with doing this but I can see what Microsoft was getitng at when they said the black makes you focus more on the content of the maximized window -- when the transparency is still shown in a maximized window it seems a bit distracting, at least to my eyes.

I really like the maximum transparency, but I do wish that the the solid black taskbar and titlebars would be retained. At first I thought I would like it to still be transparent, but I actually prefer the way Vista was designed. Can you release a slight modification where, when a window is maximized, the taskbar and titlebar turn to black (like to original Vista theme)?

Actually, I dont mind the start menu being transparent like the above post, but it is not necessity.

Thank you

    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates by Paul Hill Microsoft has just announced that starting with Edge 152, it will be moving to a two-week release cycle for faster, smaller updates. This faster release cadence will begin on August 27. This change comes just several months after Microsoft switched Visual Studio Code to weekly updates. The company said that the Extended Stable releases will remain on an eight-week cycle and that no admin changes are needed to experience the faster release cycle on the Stable channel. The new two-week release cycle will enable the faster delivery of security updates and platform improvements, all while reducing the size and complexity of individual updates. Microsoft claims that organizations will benefit from this change as it offers predictable validation cycles. For organizations that prefer a “more deliberate pace”, the Extended Stable channel remains an option. This change will affect Edge Stable releases on Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. The Extended Stable channel will continue to be updated every eight weeks, or every fourth Stable release, for example: versions 152, 156, 160, and 164. The Extended Stable could be a good option for organizations that don’t want the latest updates twice a month and don’t want as much hassle constantly updating browsers. In the case of Visual Studio Code, many of the updates being pushed by Microsoft are AI-related. As we all know, Microsoft Edge has a lot of AI features, so we could see Microsoft pushing more AI, thanks to the faster cycles. On the flip side, quicker releases could mean faster security updates, which is beneficial in a world where AI systems are hunting for software exploits. What do you think? Let us know in the comments. For more updates on Edge, be sure to follow Neowin's coverage. In May alone, we reported on Edge offering in-browser pop-ups to assist users with website compatibility issues, that Edge was losing Copilot Mode, and that Microsoft had fixed a plain-text password bug in Edge.

    • not yet, because at the moment it is not a threat to MS, if and I mean if it did become a threat to MS Office, then it may be a different thing. MS don't like competition
