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..... ;)

so i suggest to load theme from runonce

what i have done is

called

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

i don't understand :blushing:

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

what didn't yu understand?

that

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

@maniaq

i did the cmdlines.txt thing and doesn't work either...

i haven't tested it fully....but i think there is another way to set the theme and i'm going to check it out.....

or maybe someone could help us out ;)

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
