Uxtheme Patching for Windows 7 SP1
Methods:
Authenticity checked and confirmed safe by elliotcroft
What is Uxtheme Patcher?
There are countless visual styles for Windows 7 SP1 released by many skinners. Using these non-certified visual style is disallowed by Microsoft's certificate protection so you need to bypass certification verification in uxtheme.dll, themeui.dll, and themeservice.dll. Uxtheme Patcher automatically patches these three system files.
Methods:
- Automatic Uxtheme Multi Patcher
- Uxtheme Memory Patcher (UxStyle Core)
- Manually Replacing the System Files (For expert users)
Note:
I've never seen any broken Windows PC due to any uxtheme patch but you are still advised to create a system restore point before using Universal Theme Patcher (method 1).
If you are still unsure, then use UxStyle Core (method 2) because it is the safest way to use visual styles.
Replacing system files manually (method 3) is for the expert users only.
