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

It's funny you say this because i read not only the instructions listed here, but also ones from different sites detailing how to do this exact same thing. both rules failed. The first few times i did not even boot into safe mode. The few other times, i did. If anything, i downloaded the 64 bit files rather than the 86 bit ones (Also, how would i have replaced the files if i did not have ownership?)

my vista, I'M use Ashampoo WinOptimizer 4

um yeah, people will want the whole window to be transparent thats not annoying or distracting at all.

but in terms of the maximum transparency patch, it looks really good although i too wonder if i would want the border and start menu to be transparent when maximized.

It's not working here on Vista 64 Bits. Same problem as iceyJDP, only get error: Windows could not find Uxtheme.dll. Checked that I'm using correct files for Vista 64. I restored my original files.

It worked for anyone on 64 bits?

EDIT: It worked at the second try. But I noticed something weird, I can't see the same files if I use Total Commander or normal Windows File Explorer?. In the first try I used TC and in the second try used Windows File Explorer and changes that I do with one app doesnt affect the other app?

Am I crazy, is there a bug, or is it normal?

you have 2 types of DLL files 86x and 64x use proper files for your system if you can't access your system you can replace your files directly from NTFS booting supporting disk to boot from it and using suitable ntfs dos programe like volkov commander navigate to files place and replace with dll files for 64x operating system this a Hirens bootable CD containing volkov commander and other programes you can download from a link below

I would love to use this, but it would need to have the black title bar when mazimized still, that is something I actually LOVE and couldn't live without. Having transparency when maximized is just way too distracting.

you can try this theme for you

when maximized both taskbar and maximized windows is a ablack

are you ok?

Oki here is my ultimate theme:

1. Maximum transparency in windows

2. Complete black taskbar when maximized (its not completely black in but-blak theme)

3. Complete black when maximized.

Your but-blak.exe theme is almost 100% perfect for me :) but the tastbar isnt 100% black, there is a lighter stripe in the middle of it. And that stipe is there when glass to. Its like in the others windows before maximum transparency. Look at the picture.

    • My son is in Monaco right now, and I was checking his location in Apple's Find My app. I noticed that Prince Albert's Palace was blurred out on the satellite imagery in both Find My and Apple Maps. I checked Google Maps, and the palace wasn't blurred there. Does Apple have some kind of process where property owners can request that their homes be blurred on Apple Maps?  
    • No, it was THAT ugly and I’d rather forget it completely existed.
    • There is a lot of reasons not to use Edge but faster fixes and security updates is not one of them.
    • Can't reproduce. I installed Edge, went to neowin.net > accepted the cookie consent > used menu to go to forums, everything loads and I can browse around the forums. If you can't interact with the dialog on the forums for some reason, go to the main site and accept the cookie consent there? It is true that the site will not function properly until the cookie consent is accepted or rejected,. it's a legal requirement and I also know that certain VPN/ad blockers block it, which is a user related issue and not a neowin.net problem.   This is not our cookie consent dialog.
