What program do you use to apply visual styles from http://themexp.org
I had stylexp 2.x and i had "bought" it. But i cant "buy" the newer version also the problem is that i lost the installation file of the old version so even tho i have the sn i dont have the installer ![:dodgy:](images/smilies/dodgy.gif)

I had already applied the theme thru stylexp I just needed some software so that i could change my theme / visual style when style xp is gone .... i used uxtheme.dll that lee suggested. I havent rebooted yet but seems good ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif)
I know this post makes it a double post .... but this is to show that the new dll i put isnt working (mods ... please merge it)
Double post = bump ![:)](images/smilies/msn_happy.gif)

Ill try a different one this time none the less tho should i have uninstalled style xp 1st ??
Yeah it worked. I googled it and read on neowin the following text ...

Troubleshooting
Q: My uxtheme did not patch! What do I do?
A: Now hold on there. How do you know it failed? The easiest way to check to see if uxtheme.dll was patched is to simply double-click the msstyles file of a third party theme. If double-clicking loads the display properties dialog with the correct visual style, then the patching process was successful.
Thanks mods for the merge
