mau-yong Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Does anybody know how to patch Windows 2003 SP2 uxtheme.dll to use other visual styles?
mau-yong Posted March 18, 2007 Author Posted March 18, 2007 Well, while waiting for the English version of uxtheme.dll, the most of what I can make of right now is the SP2 German version of uxtheme.dll dated March 17 from here.I used the replacer to change the current SP2 uxtheme.dll and it works , the drawback is while at display properties and changing VS, German wordings are used, e.g., Inaktives/Aktives Fernster, Dialogfeld, Fenstertext, etc.
bfoos Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 (edited) Here's the US uxtheme I patched for myself. Win2k3SP2_US_uxtheme.rarThere is a cabbed version and an already extracted version. Both are CRC fixed. Enjoy. If you want to patch your own, just load up uxtheme.dll in a hex editor and do a search for this string...81EC88000000A11Creplace it with...33F68BC6C9C20800 Edited March 24, 2007 by bfoos
MagicAndre1981 Posted March 24, 2007 Posted March 24, 2007 the most of what I can make of right now is the SP2 German version of uxtheme.dll dated March 17 from here.sorry for the german version. I've send it to Rafael, because I'm german.
mau-yong Posted March 25, 2007 Author Posted March 25, 2007 Thanks bfoos, I'm now using it.If CRC fixed then I can add this to the /i386 installation folder (overwriting the default SP2 uxtheme.dll).BTW, the link where I got the SP2 German version now has also 6.0.3790.3959 EN version.
Zxian Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Or you can use the UXTheme Patcher v5.5. I now supports Server 2003 SP2 and WinXP x64 SP2.Download Link

All you will get is the usual error in the event viewer.
