a little question with the uxthemepatcher

[hermit]

i just tried the uxtheme patcher

one of the lines in the instruction is to look into c:windowssystem32dllcache and find the uxtheme.dll

i did go find and go into the dllcache directory

but i can't find uxtheme.dll in that directory

how about u guys?

babis...etc...those of u who tried the patch

i just applied this patch and it worked **** well..

To view the dllcache folder u need to click on tools > folder options

then click on the view tab

then uncheck the checkbox next to where it says "Hide protected operating system files" and move the checkbox of another selection from "Do not show hidden files and folders" to "Show all files"

then u should be able to see the dllcache folder

good luck

[hermit]

yes

i did select the unhide system protect files thing

and i did see the dllcache folder

but i don't see the uxtheme.dll in there

[Blackwar]

if you are using windows XP, then you have to see it..

look more carefully

[hermit]

no i don't

i m 100% sure i don't see it

Try to run a search for the file. That might help.

[hermit]

tried it

they only find it in c:windowssystem32

not c:windowssystem32dllcache

The uxtheme.dll on my system is in [b:8fb75bdb18]c:windowssystem32[/b:8fb75bdb18] not dllcache.

Is the dllcache folder only present on an NTFS file system?I'm using FAT32

[hermit]

the dllcache IS present

just that the uxtheme.dll file is not in there

to see the dllcache folder, u will have to unhide it

i.e. explorer, view, options, 2nd tab, unhide

or simply go to explorer address bar and type

c:windowssystem32dllcache

[Blackwar]

on my system, the file is in both..

it may be a diff between NTFS and FAT32....

[Reverend]

Yeah sorry my mistake i forgot to untick hide protected files.

The uxtheme.dll file isn't in my dllcache folder either :confused

please don't ask your questions in two threads... it gets confusing to all of us who want to help each other out.

Use Blackwar's instructions he replied to your other thread:

or if you can use the instructions i posted which don't deal with windows file protection so no need to go into the dllcache folder and it still works 100%

[b:d0cfbca041]Reverend [/b:d0cfbca041]

In folder options make sure to do the following:

Check Show hidden files

uncheck hide extentions to known file types

uncheck hide protected operating system files

You should have it on a fat32 system (I'm pretty sure about it..I have winxp on a fat32 machine and it's there)

[hermit]

nope

its not there

i m working fine with the uxtheme patcher without doing doing that thing about the uxtheme.dll file in the dllcache folder though

[babis]

in theory you should....

I did ;-)

[Blackwar]

here i can post a screenshot if u need...

this is after i had renamed the file to uxtheme.bak

oh yeah and Reverend u may not have it if you had Styles XP installed in ur systemm.. it may have renamed/deleted that file...
