Aqua-Soft ForumsIf I install the FlyakiteOSX how can I get it back to Windows XP?
Can I uninstall FlyakiteOSX?
uninstall
its a package of themes, reg edits, and apps designed to make xp look like osx, everything is backed up automaticly it doesnt hurt your computer, programs, files at all and requires a simple uninstall to get everything how it was before
I now know how to get it back to XP, but I click uninstall and nothing happens? Also...What is the difference between all the different types of FlyakiteOSX Mac things?
Nothing because I uninstalled it form Control panel and start menu and deleted it after it wouldn't go on my start menu and wiped my recyle bin so it off my hard drive...but I still got the Mac Theme! How I get it off!
Go to desktop properties, under Themes, select Windows Classic or Windows XP or whatever you want. End of mac style, of course, this won't actually remove the mac visual style from your PC so it will remain available fo future use.
I'm really having a difficult time removing FlyakiteOSX from my machine and its deffinently due to my error, but when I was 'removing' it from my computer I had removed the "restore point" file without doing any "restore" so to say.
I then proceeded to remove all of the Flyakite components and now no longer have anything installed, however my issues persist.
None of my shortcuts to folders or quick-launch work, and whats worse, A LOT of my software just refuses to launch even if i go to the root folder and launch the .exe manually.
A lot of the Flyakite components still seem to exist on my machine as Alt+Q quits an application, despite the fact that I have removed and uninstalled everything.
Is there an easy way to 'restore' all of the windows files that flyakite replaces or is an reformat inevitable?
Yes ojalord, but I would actually like to get rid of the Mac look and it seems impossible...also I would still like to know whats the difference between: e.g. Download 1). courtesy of Dark
Download 2). Courtesy of Zoltan...
which is more reliable and which is best?
Reinstall Flyakite and deinstall and see if this works. Can´t mess up anything more I guess.
If you just use the other default xp style or any other msstyle, then just the mac style's being on your hdd shouldn't bother you much.
Bjorn I tried this unfortunately I just got an even more distracting Mac Look...and ojalord I want to completely delete the Mac look off my computer and get it back to Windows XP if this is possible? I'm not sure?
Yes it is. Follow my earlier instructions! It will restore the Luna look, you won't see the mac look again unless you re-apply it. Only the visual style will be on you HD tucked away somewhee where it shouldn't bother you at all.
On my desktop I right clicked and went to properties...I went to the "Themes Tab" and where it says "Theme:" I chose Windows XP yet all the icons on my desktop and toolbar etc. are still the same how I get the icons back to the default? I tried going to Desktop>Properties>Desktop Tab>Customize Desktop>General Tab and form there I clicked restore default, but it wouldn't do anything? Maybe if I knew what folder all the default Windows Icons were in I could open it from there? But in "Shell.dll" in "System32" the folder was empty? I dont know if this is the folder for the default icons or not, but I'm just saying? Please help me here?
because fak alters windows files.. uninstall to get default icons
shell.dll does hold the icons,
Too slow...and i found out after I tried changing somet on the windows media player icon i had to re-download wma
I'm sorry but all I was able to do was take the folders off my hard-drive and manage to change like 5 icons...changing icons is actually a bit hard and time-consuming and I had to reinstall IE7 which became corrupted so I had to install firefox not to meniton Wwindows Media Player
