Why the hell would someone want to install SP3 Release candidates except testing reasons? But let's say someone has a reason (curiosity or whatever) ,why is this person wondering that it messed up his "untill then" well working OS ?...If that person is a "pro" than I guess he or she could deal with the problem without any additional help and if not than it's obvious that it wasn't meant for him(her) to use.

Hello. I installed SP3 for windows xp. Its working fine but I need a new modified uxtheme to make vista transformation pack work perfectly.

I couldnt find one for SP3, does anyone know where I can find?

HEy! This worked for build 3300 RC2

This is the RS link for the hacked uxtheme and the newer version of Replacer. It really did work for me!!!

Just use replacer to swap the old one with the new unlocked one. Just be sure to use the left side browse button to search for the old uxtheme.dll. It is in the %windows%\system32\uxtheme.dll.

Use the right side browse button to add the new uxtheme.dll. Then press replace and Presto. Reboot and go into the display section of the Control Panel and change your theme.

There is always someone that is willing to put the next man down!!!

Here is version .5512 which is the FINAL release of Service Pack 3, enjoy!

After much pain I figured out that people like me, who have limited accounts as well must set the permissions of their %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\uxtheme.dll to allow "users" to have read and exectution rights on it.

Otherwise you'll get the mysterious "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000022)" from explorer.exe at logon. It's all just because this patcher doesn't keep the original rights of the uxtheme.dll file. So don't panic, just log on as an administrator and add your "users" group at the security panel of uxtheme.dll.

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it

      Seriously 1.8gig....so what. Any computer, if you are going to do serious work on, in 2026 should have a mimimum of 16gig and I would say 32-64gig is the way to go.

      So again, you'd consider "I'm happy with my LG TV" to be a valid response to an article about PlayStation? I get the "I don't like any of their products" but how does that in any way invoke Linux? It just feels very random.

    • State of Decay 2, Blasphemous 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days

      State of Decay 2, Blasphemous 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The latest Free Play Days offer has just kicked off, giving Xbox players the chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. The offerings this time aren't as massive as last weekend, but there are still major releases for Xbox players to jump into. This includes Undead Labs' post-apocalyptic title State of Decay 2, as well as two Team17-published titles. Two of the games being offered this time are available to all Xbox players without needing any kind of Game Pass subscription. In the fully free-to-play section, you can jump into State of Decay 2. The title is both an action survival title and a community builder, letting players choose a map, set up their base, and try to keep the growing zombie threat at bay. Cooperative play is available too. Don't forget that the studio is preparing a third entry for 2027. Next, Blasphemous 2 drops in for Metroidvania and Soulslike fans, where The Penitent One returns for another adventure. The title has tough combat with multiple weapon options, deadly traps to avoid, and platforming sequences requiring a lot of patience and timing. Keep in mind though that the offer does have a 5-hour time limit attached to it. Lastly, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the WWII-set first-person shooter Hell Let Loose. The multiplayer game offers 50 vs 50 combat in massive maps, with infantry, tank, and artillery options available for players. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: Hell Let Loose (Xbox Series X|S, PC) State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition (Xbox Series X|S, PC) Blasphemous 2 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. The Free Play Days collection will show up in this area. This week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 11, at 11:59 pm PT.
