Any suggestion to boot into desktop aside from doing a system recovery?I was using UxStyle with Aero Glass RC4 btw...UPDATE: Ok nvm, after leaving it for 5 minutes or so the lock screen showed up and everything was back to normal.

I posted about the Custom Theme Resource a couple of weeks ago, here's the post. BTW I use Custom Themes now, with Uxstyle.Make a new String Value in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM , named, CustomThemeResource containing the path to the custom theme resource file and restart (or change between themes)..

DosProbie Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Thanks for the info Rayn, I did find the setting tho for AGTweaker in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM] with a Reg_Sz value as "CustomThemeResource"="C:\\DWM\\AlternateTheme.png" DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted July 12, 2013 Author Share Posted July 12, 2013 This is why I discouraged from using any custom tweaker/installer because they modify registry values which you don't have control on. Then it may result in random errors because the values may be invalid and you don't know about them at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
