Change Windows Xp Themes II
Good! in the previous comment, there is talk of installing uxtheme patch for the Windows operating system and thus be able to install new themes, then we will show how to download and install a new topic so that you can select it using the display properties of the operating system .
Step 1) We must first find and download files for the item you want to install, then you get some links that will allow you to view sites with themes (also called visual styles are "visual styles") and you can select the want to download:
These are just some of the sites where you can find items for your system anyway you can always use google and searching for any of these concepts: visual styles, windows xp themes, xp visual styles, themes for windows, etc. ...
In my case I will select a topic from the site www.deviantart.com in order to do this go into the browser and click the site address. on the homepage of the site can be seen in the upper left side a button called "categories" (categories), clicking displays a menu which has the option of selecting Customization (Improvement), clicking on the option shows another menu in which we select the option Skins & Themes (Skins and Themes), pressing select again the option that says Windows utilities (Utilities Windows) and finally select the option Visual Styles (Visual Styles). Clicking on this option will load a new page which presents the visual styles for windows posted to this site over the last 24 hours, to have more pressing issues to choose the option that says 1 month (1 months) or All Time (all), that show visual styles sent for 1 month or all. Pressing the page is reloaded and show us many more topics. In our case we sought and we will install a theme called Clearlooks Gummy, for doing this when we have located the preview of the theme we are interested click on it and we see a new page which is a preview issue bigger than the previous submission and in the upper left is a download link called download, simply make a click on the link and start the download, if for any reason there is a page of advertising deviantart we push to continue on the download link at the top right of the window called click here to continue to deviantart (click here to continue on deviantart) and immediately starts the download of the item as a compressed file. Since you asked us if we want to open or save this answer has been that we want to store or save the file to a folder on the computer.
Step 2) Once downloaded the file item rioja andalusia decompress in a folder and can see that we find a folder called gummy in which include files and folders: gummy.msstyles which corresponds to the file you want to install themes A folder called walls, which are the wallpapers for our desktop (wallpapers) and another folder called shell containing variations of color and shape on the original theme. Well as we need to copy the file gummy.msstyles the Themes folder, found in the Resources folder and this in turn inside the folder on your hard disk where Windows is installed the system. We now also copy the folder Shell at the same site and with our theme this action should have been installed.
Step 3) in the performance of our new theme is installed, it has to access the configuration screen in the section of topics and well in the section on issues or in terms of appearance should appear in a new item called gummy andalusia select it and click on will change the look of the Windows operating system. If for any reason the item is not a possible solution is to go to Themes folder where we installed the theme and make a double click on the file for the gummy.msstyles issue in this case, this will force windows to load of the item appearing on the display properties dialog box display, which will allow us to change the configuration of the item or accept the subject as it is loaded.
Step 4) Lastly we have simply select a wallpaper, in keeping with our theme, these are walls in the folder that we copied earlier, you must enter that folder and make a click with the right mouse button on the screen that we are interested in, a context menu which has the option to select Set as wallpaper. Remember that many subjects do not have to come accompanied by their corresponding backgrounds, in this case select the one you like more.
Well we finished!
