    Seems like the Unsigned Themes service either starts as Manual,is Disabled or needs a reinstall.

    Is there a way to slipstream the blue progress bars into the install dvd of win7, i only ask cause i hate the default green progress bars that MS seems to like too much.

    Should be able to mount an image and replace necessary files then dismount it

    I'll have a go at slipstreaming the modified files and the uxstyle core x64 into the .wim file and report back to say if it worked or not. :)

    If we know how services are installed in a running windows than it should be pretty easy to isntall it in a mounted wim I think.

    I did this very thing with with WAIK tools as others have already mentioned.I installed win7, made all the necessary changes and captured the image using imagex. Replaced the install.wim with the newly captured image and it works great.

    Hello

    This thread is so useful and like my new BLUE progress bar.

    Is there a way to change the green explorer search bar or Breadcrumb Bar Without changing the theme?

    Thanks

    THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY.

    Can you PLEASE Make "ThemeInstall.exe" just rename the original aero.msstyles to eg: aero.msstyles.bak, and then add the new modified aero.msstyles to the right folder. Not replacing/everwiting the original? Or just tell me how to do that (i'm not lazy, just don't know how to to it)

    Thanks a lot

    Hello, have got the blue progress bars and the red bars working but can not get my own different colours working.
    I have tried using Restorator 2007 to export the images,open in Paint.net and alter via hue/saturation, saving as png with 8 bit colour, then assign to .. in restorator.
    Tried the same with resource hacker 3.52 and Alonis resourcer 0.9, whichever option is used I end up with white taskbar + sidebar instead of the aero style bars.
    Please can anyone point me in the right direction to use different colours.
    Thanks for any help;)

    This is because either original aero.msstyles is in use or you have not taken ownership of the original file.

    Make sure you follow the instructions in README!.txt to the letter!
