Installing custom themes.

[dan_esf_fanatic]

Alright, I downloaded some custom themes for XP off Deviantart, but can't seem to activate them. Now, it worked for me before I formatted my disk, and LegendarY helped me with it, said I needed some sort of patch for it, otherwise it wouldn't work. He also said it had something to do with Windows not being open source. Anyone know what this patch thing is and where I can get it? Cause I forgot xD

Right click your desktop>Properties>Themes tab>click the down arrow where you select your them and choose "Browse" and go to where you downloaded your theme to.

Tried that, didn't work. It just shows my default themes.

You mean it doesnt have the option "browse"? It should have it then you just go to where the file is located. And if it is an actual theme it will end in ".theme" otherwise you might need to convert it somehow.

It might be for a theme program like Style XP
