1) Before you do anything, create a System Restore Point - This is important. The themes on this site are perfectly fine if installed correctly, but mistakes can happen, and you definitely want to have a restore point if needed. Proceed at your own risk, and I do not take responsibility for changes that you make to your system that may cause you problems. Just follow the instructions carefully and you'll be fine.

-There are basic free versions of themes (Only 1 theme, No ipack icon), but do remeber that if you purchase one of the themes you get the full pack (Full theme + ipack icon) & I will provide additional support - I will provide support almost immediately if you have same GMT with me  from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM (GMT + 7). Only $2.50 paid version supports me to continue developing these beautiful themes for you :) So please consider supporting the developer. Thank you very much!

-Also note that some antivirus programs may give flags or warnings. These can be safely ignored. You are doing registry hacks which many antivirus programs will flag. You can safely disable real time protection for installs if you like. This is of course at your discretion. But it is safe. Please refer to Help & FAQ's Here

Now on to the good stuff!

2) Download the Theme that you want. The free themes do not include all the additional versions, just one version, no icon packs & no additional support.

So download for example "After Dark CC Theme For Windows10 November Update (10586)" [link]
  • Note again: Absolutely do not use theme of windows 10 RTM (10240) for Windows 10 November Update (10586) and vice-versa. If you are not sure which version of Windows 10 you have, go to Win 10 search menu and type "winver" (without quotes), hit enter and it will show you the Win 10 version & build you have. 
You'll want to download the zipped theme file you've chosen directly onto your desktop, or place it there after downloaded. Example: After Dark CC Theme For Windows 10 November Update 2.rar [link] Don't worry, it will unzip into it's own folder on your desktop - if you don't do this you'll get file length erros trying to unzip. After we're done installing you can come back and delete it, or move it wherever you want. Whatever you decide, we'll leave it for now and come back to it later.

3) Download the Theme Patcher from the link below.

-------------------------------
Download this file Theme Patcher

 Download Mediafire (via ouo.io)
------------------------
Download Donate (No Ads, No Pop-up)

Unzip it, and in the Theme Patcher folder right click on UltraUXThemePatcher_3.0.4.exe and Run as administrator. Follow install prompts. When it's done it will prompt you to reboot, so reboot now.

4) In Win 10 search bar, search for "uac" (without quotes) and then click on the "Change User Account Control Settings" that it finds above. In User Account Control Settings Panel move the slider down to the bottom and click OK. Click Yes when the dialogue box appears. After installing your theme you can go back and re-enable User Account Controls to their previous safe settings. Changing it now just makes it easier for install. Again, this is at user discretion. Leaving it only means you have to keep clicking it a lot on the install.

5) Go to the "Theme Patcher" folder you downloaded, then the "Take Ownership REG files" folder inside, and double click on the file "Add_Take_Ownership_to_context_menu.reg" Click Yes to continue. OK. (This will add a right click context menu for "Take Ownership" of any registry files you need. )

For steps 6 to 12 refer to the screenshots below if you still aren't clear.

6) Go to C:\Windows\System32 and search for "uxtheme.dll" (without quotes) .

7) Now right click on "uxtheme.dll" and select Open file location.

8) Then right click on it again and select "Take Ownership".

9) Rename "uxtheme.dll" to "uxtheme.dll.del" A dialogue box appears, so choose "Yes" . If another dialogue box appears click Continue. Leave that C:\Windows\System32 folder open.

10) Now go to the "Theme Patcher" folder and you'll see two folders inside called:
"File Patch x86" & "File Patch x64".

*** If you are on a a 32 bit system use the "File Patch x86" folder; if you are on a 64 bit system use the "File Patch x64" folder

11) Inside the correct "File Patch x86" or "File Patch x64" folder that you've chosen, copy "uxtheme.dll" and paste it into the C:\Windows\System32 folder

12) Now go back and repeat steps 6 to 11 for the remaining two files (themeui.dll & uxinit.dll) in the "File Patch x86" or "File Patch x64" folder - whichever one you selected previously.






13) Now restart the computer

14) Now go to the rar theme file on the desktop that you downloaded earlier (Example: After Dark CC Theme For Windows 10 November Update 2.rar ) Extract it to the desktop so you would then have the folder: "After Dark CC Theme For Windows 10 November Update 2" Inside that folder is a folder called "Themes" Open it, select all the contents (Ctrl + A) in folder "Hide Commandbar or Show Commandbar", right click and copy all contents. Open C:\Windows\Resources\Themes and paste the contents you've copied in there. Click Continue on dialogue box.

15) Go to the "After Dark CC Theme For Windows 10 November Update 2" folder on your desktop, and inside of it click on the picture "OldNewExplorer Setting.png" It shows you settings you're going to need, so leave it open.

16) Create a folder on your desktop called "OldNewExplorer" Go to https://goo.gl/GX1bdO and download the OldNewExplorer.rar (The download link is the arrow up top) into the "OldNewExplorer" folder you've just created. Extract the OldNewExplorer.rar Right click on the extracted "OldNewExplorerCfg.exe", Run as administrator, and set the settings according to the "OldNewExplorer Setting.png" screenshtot you have open from step 15. Then click Install. Close out

17) Right click on the desktop. Go to Personalize > Theme > Theme settings and apply the theme

18) Enjoy!

Also remember that you want to back to User Account Control and re-enable it to the safe setting. To do this it is the reverse of step 4 above.

Also re-install or re-enable any antivirus you may have adjusted. 

  • Note also that if you apply Windows 10  10586 updates, (example 10586.314 to 10586.420) you may have to go back and do steps 6 to 12 again if the Windows Explorer Window shows a white menu bar. After that you would then also need to run the OldNewExplorer.exe program again. Click Uninstall. Then install. Then restart.  It's a simple fix. You can also contact me for support if you purchase a theme pack. 

Thank you so much Jack Flynn for support write Instructions

    I have CC Mix for RTM and this is my preferred Theme, now what do i do, i don't want to go Dark or anything else, no round minimize/maximize/close buttons, simply just staying like it is, but on 10586!

    Is that possible ?

    PS! Only minor eye catcher is the minim/maxim/close button in Internet Explorer, the collide with home/favorites/Settings/Feedback buttons below (Those are sticky)

      Absolutely no way Threshold 2 gets near my rig, again, until i have an updated CC Mix, so i depend on you ;0)

      Please don't change the way CC Mix looks, i don't fancy all this darkness, it's equally depressing as Mircosoft's white surface.... i.m.o.

    Unfortunately even though the "Take Ownership" step gives a Success message, the last step of copying the new DLL's into system32 fails, saying that only Trusted Installer has permissions for this directory.
    Is there another step I am missing?

    1. cuong phamNovember 18, 2015 at 7:55 AM

      Install "Add_Take_Ownership_to_context_menu.reg" double-click it Press Yes/ ok
      5. Open Folder system32 type on search with key " Themeui.dll "
      - Now mouse right on the file "themeui.dll" select Open file location
      - Now mouse right on the file "themeui.dll" select Take ownership
      - Rename "themeui.dll" to "themeui.dll.del" A dialog appears choose "Yes"




      - A dialog box appears again choose "Continue"



      Now copy new file "themeui.dll" to system32.

      Note:
      + if you use windows 32 bit - you copy file in " File Patch x86 " to System32
      + if you use windows 64 bit - you copy file in " File Patch x64 " to System32

      6. Doing the same as above for 2 file uxinit.dll, uxtheme.dll then restart and enjoy.

  3. markrNovember 18, 2015 at 8:33 AM

    Yes, I followed these steps. When I try to rename the dll, after I press OK on the dialog, I get a "File Access Denied" error dialog saying "You need permission to perform this action. You require permission from TrustedInstaller to make changes to this file" with "Try Again" and "Cancel" buttons. "Try Again" just repeats the error.
    The Take Ownership registry addition was successful and also selecting "Take Ownership" in the right-click context menu brought up a Command Prompt window flashing by with a green Success message. So I don't know why it doesn't let me rename and copy the file.
    Thanks for your help

    "- Rename "themeui.dll" to "themeui.dll.del" A dialog appears choose "Yes"

    - A dialog box appears again choose "Continue"

    Now copy new file "themeui.dll" to system32."

    Do you mean copy new file "themeui.dll.del"? There is no longer a file themeui.dll, surely, because we renamed it?

    Also, everything worked right up to "Now copy new file "themeui.dll" to system32." then I got confused.
    There is not a new file "themeui.dll", as I said above. Or, if there is, where is it? If I copy "themeui.dll.del" where am I copying it to? It is already in System32. Plus, do you mean copy the file into "File Patch x64"? I can't find that file.

    Your instructions with images were very clear up to the point of copying. Please could you provide some images for this stage, too?

    Thank you for all your hard work with this, and the great themes.

  7. JayastNovember 19, 2015 at 1:49 PM

    So, for anyone else having the same problem, the final steps should be:

    "Now copy [...] file "themeui.dll" (found inside file Theme Patcher which you downloaded) to
    system32.

    Note:
    + if you use windows 32 bit - you copy file in " File Patch x86 " to System32
    + if you use windows 64 bit - you copy file in " File Patch x64 " to System32

    6. Doing the same as above for 2 file uxinit.dll, uxtheme.dll then restart and enjoy."

I really can't understand anything, because I found this tittle "Install UXThemePatcher For Windows 10 November Update (10586) ", but then I found this warning "Warning: Absolutely do not use theme of windows 10 RTM (10240) for Windows 10 November Update (10586) and opposite... Just wait me a bit for update for windows 10 november update (10586)"

    (typing this again as I don't think my comment got posted)

    I can't copy the uxinit.dll and the uxtheme.dll into my system32 folder. It says I don't have permission to do so while giving me the option to do it as administrator. It also says I already have the 2 dlls in my system32 folder, were they there to begin with or did I just add them without realizing it?

    Hi, the above "Download UXThemePatcher For Windows 10 Version 1511, 10586 Download Link" leads to a "UXThemePatcher 10.sfx.exe". I tried this exe and it is a FAKE.exe trying to install lots of garbage ant Trojans and does NO MORE contain the 3 dll's!

      Amigo, eu tive esse mesmo problema, fiz todo o processo acima e no fim, além de não aparecer o tema novo, quando eu reiniciei apareceu a tela piscando! Esse UXThemePatcher do vietnamita aí não funciona!
      Eu recuperei o meu sistema usando a Restauração do Sistema, mas através do disco de instalação do Windows 10. Você conseguiu resolver o seu problema? Se ainda não, se quiser, eu posso tentar ajudá-lo, valeu? Entra em contato. Abraço.

    first sry for bad english.
    hope you understand this:
    this is exactly what you must do if you failed to copy these 3 files (themeui.dll, uxinit.dll, and uxtheme.dll) to your system32

    1) open system32 folder > "themeui.dll" > klik right > take ownership > rename to "themeui.dll.del" then copy "themeui.dll" from Theme Patcher which you downloaded (x64 or x86 choose one same with your os, my os is windows10 64bit, so I choose x64) > paste to system32 folder. done

    2) open system32 folder > "uxinit.dll > klik right > take ownership > rename to "uxinit.dll.del" then copy "uxinit.dll" from Theme Patcher which you downloaded > paste to system32 folder. done

    3) open system32 folder > "uxtheme.dll" > klik right > take ownership > rename to "uxtheme.dll.del" then copy
    "uxtheme.dll" from Theme Patcher which you downloaded > paste to system32 folder. done

    restart your pc. enjoy the themes

    Thank you for your work but same problem than Jan-Erik Jeromin, after reboot first grey screen and then black screen. I had to use my R-Drive Image bootable CD to reboot my PC. I use W10 PRO x64 10586.164.

    No problem to rename themeui.dll file, but I had to change permissions in security tab with uxinit.dll and uxtheme.dll files to rename them.

    I used Universal Theme Patcher with Windows XP and Windows 7; UXStyle with Windows 8.1 PRO and I've never had any problems. Sadly I think there isn't any solution for now, anyway thanks a lot.

    Windows 10 - Update: (10586), using the x64 files, because 64-bit OS. It's a pain in the arse with Windows because Microsoft removed the ability to theme the system. :/

    Has anyone experienced this?:
    uxthemepatcher seems to work because it creates a dll.backup and a seemingly patched version of the themeui,uxinit,uxtheme .dlls. I reboot, try to apply themes and some things change like background but explorer windows background are still white and not dark like the themes should be (Ive downloaded Ades and After Dark theme, that should be for TH2 release 10586)
    Anyway...my issue is this: I can rename themeui.dll to .dll.del, but when I try to copy the patched x64 file to the sys32 folder, I cant, it says basically file already exists and never lets me copy it over/overwrite it.
    And of course I have the take ownership reg installed.
    I'm on the latest 10586.420 and have installed uxstyle at some point, but have it uninstalled ATM.
    Why is my themeui.dll either locked/inaccessible/hidden. I can delete the themeui.dll renamed to .del.dll and delete it from the recycle bin. But still can't copy the file over, like the real themeui.dll file is being hidden/inaccessible?

    Ok, so I have done some further investigations and please disregard my previous comment.
    It has to do with the scaling resolution in windows. I am on a 4k resolution and with 300% scaling (normal) and this is what is causing it not to enable the theme correctly. First when I went down to 250% it applied. But I want warn about first enabling it in 250 and then while having the theme active, go up in scaling. This will cause the BAWSOD (Black and white screen of death ;) )
    So my request for Cleo is if you could please make a theme that works for 300% scaling I will buy it immediately! :)

    Also in the readme fiel it says that the oldnewplorer dll is for win 8.1 and 8? This is regarding the installation for the anniversary version

      I see you're using windows 10.0.10586.494 so you need replace 3 file themeui.dll, uxtheme.dll uxinit.dll in system32 with guide in tab "Patcher For Win10 Build 10586 aka 1511"

      if you still have trouble installing the theme so just let me know. I will installed theme for you via teamviewer.

      When I tried to do "17) Right click on the desktop. Go to Personalize > Theme > Theme settings and apply the theme" I got a gray blinking screen with black borders. I restarted several times but it still happened. Then I eventually used system restore and everything went back to normal. I don't know why that happened though. All I did was go to themes and highlight a certain theme. I think it was the one I was trying to install that I highlighted. :/

      You use wrong theme for windows 10. You need use true theme with your win10 version.
      Absolutely do not use theme of win10 RTM (10240) for Win10 November Update (10586) for Win10 Anniversary Update 1607 and vice-versa
