UXTheme Multi-Patcher and XP SP3?


Recommended Posts

I've been running the UXTheme Multi-Patcher for awhile now in XP SP2 and have just now installed SP3 and the UXTheme no longer works. I've even downloaded the .exe and run it again since and it will not take. Does the multi-patcher not work in XP SP3 or is there something else I can use?

If none of the patchers are working for you, try http://www.withinwindows.com/uxtheme-patches/ - download the uxtheme.dll for SP3, and use http://www3.telus.net/_/replacer/ then reboot.

I couldn't find a patcher for my XP box either :) I tried a couple, got weirdness, and just used that method.

Or, alternatively: http://themes.belchfire.net/lofiversion/index.php/t8767.html

That's version 6.0, should support SP3.

Also - TuneUp Utilities works (tho you have to pay for it ... since StyleXP is gone, it's your other option)

Thank you. :) I downloaded the .dll and ran the replacer and it worked.
