DONATE ME


WALLPAPER HERE [link]

[Update 4]
- Fix a bug on MoreResult band when you use Windows Search. [link ]
- New glyph for Command Link. [link ]
- I changed everything into Segoe UI instead of Corbel because some people told me that Corbel is too small to use.
gdipp is recommended if you like the effect of text like Mac OS and Linux distributions. [link ]

[Update 3]
- Change text color + Items for Taskbar toolbar. [link ]
- New style for Download window if you use IDM. [link ]
- New style for Command Link. [link ]
- Add new image + fix some problem for Vertical Taskbar. [link ]
- Black caption and white glow. [link ]

[Update 2]
- Add an image for ListItem on Taskbar Thumbnail.
- Use Segoe UI for Placelist instead of Corbel.

[Update 1]
- Fix wrong patch in theme file for Elune 1.
- Add en-US and Shell folder in Elune to fix problem with Command module and Detail pane.

[Note]
I didn't include explorer.exe because I updated my computer to Windows 7 SP1.
You can use Restorator to change yours by replacing BMP number 6801,6805 & 6809, so do explorerframe.dll

[How to install]
1. Install Universal Theme Patcher, re-patch again if you updated to SP1.
2. Copy everything in themes folder (Elune folder, Elune 1(Bottom), Elune 1 (Top)...) into C:\Windows\Resources\Themes
3. Take Ownership, rename the orignal to back up and replace modified explorerframe.dll in System32 folder.
4. Restart Windows & then select this theme in Personalize Menu

I'm on a laptop as well. I really don't think that it could have something to do with that... could it?
Please some help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

anytime I click a Browse... button in any application that opens an instance of windows explorer, the navigation panel on the left is completely blank.
If I just open an explorer window by double clicking a folder, or opening a link to say Computer, the navigation pane looks normal.

The theme is gorgeous, I just want to resolve this issue. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1. I replaced both Explorerframe.dlls with the x64 version
that came packaged in the bundle. (Both system32 and syswow64). Should i have replaced only the syswow64? or should I have perhaps used the file in the x86 folder to replace the version in system32?

Thanks for your help!

Rename the system file to ExplorerFrame_bak.dll or something, so you still have a copy of the original in case you need to revert.

instanem In reply to Faunish [2011-03-27 15:00:44 +0000 UTC]

In 'Tools'>'Add Take Ownership Option', double clicking "Add Take Ownership Option" will make some registry changes.

Now in your C:/Windows/System32/ directory, right click the ExplorerFrame.dll file, click the 'Take Ownership' option in the popup menu. Then rename the file to ExplorerFrame_bak.dll (to have it as a backup).

EternalRZ In reply to ??? [2011-03-24 17:43:57 +0000 UTC]

This is an awesome scheme, but I've found three issues:

-The start menu is too transparent, which makes the folder links and such on the right side of the start menu rather difficult to see if you open it while a window with a lot of white in it is underneath it.

-The width of the task bar buttons is too large, buttons will go into a secondary task bar as a result.

-Small issue with Office 2010, when you open Outlook and go to the main page, even though theres no scroll bar because the page doesnt require scrolling, it turns completely black.

Overall this is a totally awesome skin (best one I've ever seen, in fact), just those issues prevent me from using it.

HardlyOn In reply to ??? [2011-03-24 12:53:47 +0000 UTC]

Hi Minhtrimatrix,

Looks really good! Can i suggest that you change your instructions to make it clear that people should copy everything in the Elune\Elune\themes folder to windows\resources\themes. When the download is unzipped, it gets unzipped into an Elune folder already, and I think this confuses some users, so they end up copy everything including the tools folder. That won't work.

However, I get a similar problem to another user. I have followed the steps, replaced explorerframe etc, and can see the Elune themes listed in the Personalize menu, but they are all just grey squares (no thumbnail picture, just grey square). When I select one, eg. Elune(1) and apply, I can see all the changes, EXCEPT for the backgrounds... where should I go looking for them?

Many Thanks!
