Uxtheme???

Monday, May 14, 2007 by Jeffrey W | Discussion: Skinning

I downloaded the trial version of Windowblinds a few days ago, although I thought the software is awesome, I decided not to buy the software because I just want 1 specific theme that I like. Luckily, that theme could be applied to the window using Uxtheme, but I am not sure about that software. Can somebody tell me the bad effects that Uxtheme could bring to my CP? Someone said that your computer won't be able to restore with Uxtheme, is that true? I have already downloaded uxtheme patcher 5.0 and it said that it could restore the system file whenever you want, should I believe that? Please explain everything in detail. Thank you very much!!!!

Although I have been successful at 2 attempts on my own computer, I have tried on others and failed. Everyone has different experiences using it. I personally would not recomend it because unless you are sure of what your doing, it is very possible to ruin a good working computer. Yes restore is possible as long as you create a new restore point before you change anything but if that doesn't work, I would at least have backup CD's. There are tutorials out there but as I said I would not recommend. If you still have time left on your trial version of windowblinds, why not finish it out first and then decide   Windowblinds is so much better and has a very huge gallery. If you get bored with one, then you can change it without any headaches.
