Here you go... hacked the file myself. If you have issues with it, sorry! Just to make sure you know, this is the v5512 file with the Hex edited, not just a v5508 file or some such. :)

uxtheme_6.0.2900.5512_EN_checksum.zip

Also, an easy way to patch it is using "Replacer"!

P.S. If this kills your PC, sorry! But it's working fine on mine, see:

UPDATE - Fixed the checksum... let me know if there is anything else I missed!! :)

I just used the one from RC2 5508 and it worked, but I'll check this one out too. Thanks.

True, but this one is from the actual 5512 (RTM) release. Dunno if there is really any change between them, but it's the "correct" file in a sense. :)

No prob! Hope it works for all of you! :) It should, but if things always worked how they were supposed to, I don't this site would be as big as it is today. :whistle:

Totally of topic but your join date is in 03 but yet your sig says 02? :wacko:

Yeah, my first username (FlishFun is my second) joined in Jan of '02. :) I just need to see if there's a way to fix that (ie, change my reg date), one day. :)

EDIT - And yes, prior to me changing my name, staff was aware. Don't think this means you all can go a name changin'! lol

Thanks, will put that in my slipstreamed CD.

And I don't understands why the staff didn't change your name via the admin panel :blink:

AFAIK, If you know well an Admin he could change your join date directly in the SQL database.

Thank you FlishFun works fine so far.

I made a bat file that deletes the uxtheme from the cache dirs, and copies and renames the uxtheme.dll

just double click the copyren.bat and wait for the system files protection dialog, and tell it yes you want to keep this new file.

reboot, use your favorite msstyles

Actually that's pretty close to what "replacer" does (I mentioned it in the first post), but great job, nevertheless! :)

    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
