How To Use or apply a custom themes in Windows PC, without patching any system files? UXStyle is a small utility that installs a background service that will enable to use a custom themes.
UxStyle is a light-weight system service named Unsigned Themes, complimentary to the Themes service, and a kernel driver, sizing in at ~500k and ~17kb respectfully (beta builds). The service handles the enabling/disabling of custom theme support and the kernel driver handles patching. For 64-bit platforms, the kernel driver is signed with a digital certificate, as required by Microsoft.
When you install UXStyle it will add a background service that will enable to use a custom themes or any 3rd party themes in Windows PC, it supports Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.
Note: In our test system (Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64) sometimes the service wont load properly, and your custom theme wont be applied, re-install will fix it that is why we prefer to use Universal Theme Patcher if you want a stable way to patch your system.
[…] Patcher as this is the most stable way in patching system files, not like our previous post about UXStyle that is not stable and a bit buggy. Download Universal Theme Patcher for Windows (32bit/64bit) […]
Yes, it is buggy. Sometimes the service wont load properly. it is noted on the article.
I prefer the multi patcher, but I just want to share it to those who doesn’t want to patch or affraid of modifying their system files.
We post new article on Universal Theme Patcher > https://www.johnsphones.com/windows-apps/patch-your-windows-system-files-to-use-custom-themes-in-windows/2246/
Thanks…
I have tried Uxstyle before but have always had buggy experiences with it, a much better theme patcher to use 3rd party themes in Windows Vista or 7 is Universal Theme Patcher.
