uxtheme.dll file for being able to apply 3rd party themes.
THIS FILE IS FOR XP SP3 ONLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you have an older version of XP i.e. SP2 or SP1, then you will need a different version of the uxtheme.dll file.
I have included the Replacer program.
How To Use:
Extract the zip file (to the dekstop or somewhere handy) and open the Replacer folder
Start replacer.cmd by doubleclicking it
Follow the prompts ie. open windows explorer and find the old uxtheme.dll file (usually in C:\Windows\System32\ ) and drag it onto the Replacer command prompt window
Click enter... it will then ask for the replacement file
Click and drag the new uxtheme.dll file that came with this download (in the "uxtheme file" folder), onto the Replacer command prompt window, and click enter. It will ask if you want to continue Y/N?
Click y and press enter.
Restart computer... all things going well, you should be able to start using 3rd party themes and msstyles.
Just copy themes and msstyles files into the C:\Windows\Resources\Themes folder and double click them :-D
