Hey can anyone make me a compatable version of the uxtheme for Windows Server 2003 so I can use non-microsoft themes?? I can provide the file if someone can recode it so that it works. If anyone can help private message or email me. clotz2000@yahoo.com
Thanks,
(Oh by the way I'm using server because it's 3 times faster on my computer than XPSP1)
Man!! I wish someone knew how to code the uxtheme.dll file so I can get some new visual styles on here. Maybe I'll have to talk to some people...
Since uxtheme is already compiled. It needs to be hex edited to remove the security check. That's how it was done on XP. Same thing could be done on windows server.
Perhaps you could try a patcher? I think there is one that goes in and hex edits.
Hmm, hey that was quick, I will look around and see if I can find a patcher. That would be sweet, this old windows GUI has to go for sure!!
Thanks Smoke
Well I found some patchers but they all just do windows xp uxtheme. The Server version must be different because they don't work. I downloaded a hex editor but do not know what to change. Man, this is rough. Well if anyone else has any insight (Duckie, Iceman, etc.) lemme know.
Thanks
Ok, finally some light on this server uxtheme replacement. You can use this information if you want to change your uxtheme file if you're running server 03.
Here is the info over at Neowin.net

Hope anyone running server will find this info valuable. Props go out to SKnights for helping me on this one. Also even if you ware running 3771 or later you can still use the patch.
