How do I change my vista theme???Is it necessary to have some sort of program to do it??


I mean I just downloaded a visual style from deviantart and whenever I press the msstyles file that comes with it it just opens the themes box and no new theme is added in there!!!

I downloaded this one by the way--[url][link]

So do I have to have something like windows blind to change my vista themes??

If it is a skin for Vista then:
:bulletgreen: Download UxTheme Patcher for Vista [link] and install it following the given directions
:bulletgreen: Copy the theme files to %windirectory% /Resources/Themes
:bulletgreen: Apply theme through RightClick > Personalize > Theme

Make sure it's a vista skin and not an xp skin. Windowblinds is pretty good but I think you can also find a patcher to use visual styles, I would try the Neowin forums
