[Updated] Enable theme usage in Vista Starter Edition

"Due to some complaints about the tutorial, I reviewed it and recovered the quality of the images; I corrected some errors in the explanation and placed new links. "

-> First of all, download Vista Glazz and install. ( You can download Vista Glazz Clicking here! )

-> Once installed, run the program, it must have created a shortcut in the Start Menu.

-> When starting the program click "I Agreement" (I Accept). Then click the first icon to enable the themes.

vista-glazz

-> Now click on "Patch Files“; ( To undo the operation later, do the same procedure, the button will be named "unpatch files” )

-> Done this, now open the log editor. Run > regedit; ( To open the run menu, press the Windows shortcut key on the keyboard + the letter "r" )

starter-2 themes

-> Navigate to folder: HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Microsoft > Windows > DWM;

Double-click on the Composition Policy key and change the value to 2

starter-3 themes

After this, right-click on the command prompt click to run as administrator, then within the command prompt type "net stop uxsms" (no quotes) and enter, wait 5 seconds and type "net start uxsms" (no quotes) and enter.

Ready, you can already install any theme on your Windows Vista Starter, but only the "Basic" version of the themes.

When you download a theme, it will normally come compressed, you will need a program like Winrar to unpack. After extracting the files from the package, open the file corresponding to the theme (usually with the extension *.msstyles); Now just apply.

starter-5 themes

You can download themes to Vista:

  2. Pow this even caught some temas, this can damage your pc, so don't do it because it messes with plugin,dll, and ai ferrou will have to format. R$ 40,00 real thrown away

  3. The above procedures do not cause any problems to the pc. I've been tested over a thousand times and it's never been a problem.

    Dude naum got whatever in my oc naum shows that, when I go to see hen properties, color appears window naum shows nothing

  11. @Wesley Have you done all the procedures? After that put the themes in the folder "C:WindowsResourcesThemes".
    I did this week on my laptop and it worked normally, to use Ubuntu clearlooks.
    Ah, the theme you need to apply also needs to be compatible with Starter, otherwise it doesn't work.

  13. @maykon
    Alienguise works even without this procedure because it uses Windows Blinds extensions, see if the version of it works in Windows Vista. 😉

    Changing system dlls by unsigned dlls compromise system security. Then don't complain about invasions or system errors for Microsoft support.

    Buddy, I download the program, and I press the first icon, there's a Back button and or Visit Website.
    and a message written "there are files"
    I use Windows 7 Starter and tried because many people had told me it would work.
    I appreciate it.

  24. Thanks man, got it!!!

    only that some themes that have the effect of transparency have lost that effect when I used...

    But other than that, it's great. 🙂
