"InstallTheme"="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\royal.theme"
"InstallVisualStyle"="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\royalmod\royalmod.msstyles"

;Set Custom Wallpaper
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"TileWallpaper"="0"
"Wallpaper"="%windir%\\web\\wallpaper\\maniaq.jpg"
"Wallpaperstyle"="2"

theme has not fully loaded

so i suggest to load theme from runonce

what i have done is

called

%windir%system32\resources\.........\*.theme or *.msstyle

or just use autoit

[maniaq]

i can run from cmdlines also?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

i don't understand

executing a theme file just opens up the Display Properties->Theme tab

what didn't yu understand?

[maniaq]

i think we can run the reg file over the cmdlines.txt file

reg file code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
;sets custom theme
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes]
"InstallTheme"="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\royal.theme"
"InstallVisualStyle"="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\royalmod\royalmod.msstyles"

;Set Custom Wallpaper
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"TileWallpaper"="0"
"Wallpaper"="%windir%\\web\\wallpaper\\maniaq.jpg"
"Wallpaperstyle"="2"

cmdlines.txt code

"REGEDIT /S reg_name.reg"

..................going to test it............

p.s. edit the reg file for your theme.....

that

calling %windir%system32\resources\.........\*.theme just opens the display properties it doesn't change the theme...

Help is on the way. Here is an executable that will change your theme. Just call it from a batch file or whatever. Credit belongs to someone else, unfortunately I can't remember where I got this program and a quick search on Google reveals nothing. If anyone knows where this came from, let us know =]

Download ApplyTheme.exe

[Achdine]

ApplyTheme is from a post on these forums. Original post. It's just a script for opening the theme dialog, and I'm not sure it works from CmdLines.txt. It does work when you run it at first login, which is where I use it.

[maniaq]

do i need to rename the applytheme.exe to applytheme royal.exe or what??
