Is there a way to make it work with .themepack files?It works fine with windows' stock themes but i have trouble when trying customs' one.

[Patrick]

I think .themepack is simply a .cab file containing the theme and all its wallpapers and other resources. So just unpack it somewhere and then use the .theme file.

I have a problem,using the themechanger you provided.It works flawlessly when i use it with windows stock themes (for exemple : [path to file]changetheme.exe C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\nature.theme), but anytime i try doing the same on some custom themes i downloaded (for exemple : [path to file]changetheme.exe C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Desktop4.theme), its loading correctly the color scheme but with a classic windows theme like.I've spent 2 hours trying to figure this out with no success.
Any idea or solution to share?

[Patrick]

Sorry, no idea. All it does is pass the file name on to a Windows function which then loads the theme. If you post the theme file, I'll check if it behaves the same way here.

You can use that one :

Did you do this from the theme's info.txt file?

In order to use custom themes you have to patch your system files.
To do that, download and install Universal Theme Patcher from this link:

Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

Yes, the files have been patched a long time ago, and i have no problem applying them manually.

Ah, but you only patched the 64-bit files, not the 32-bit ones.

I've added a 64-bit version of the theme changer above that should work.

That never even crossed my mind.
Thanks a LOT for the time you took helping me, it's working perfectly now.
