Install Themes on Windows 10 TH2


Install Themes on Windows 10 November Update/TH2/10586

Theme patching does not work out of the box for Windows 10 after the November Update/TH2/10586. You will need to modify some system files, so make a system backup before preceding if you want to reverse the effects completely.

1. Download the Theme Patcher zip from Google Drive then extract it.

3. Open the Take Ownership REG files folder and run Add_Ownership.reg and press yes through the prompts. (Important step)

4. Open the Theme Patcher extracted folder in another window.

5. Click Windows + R or search Run in the start menu, click it, and type C:\Windows\System32

6. Find “themeui.dll” and right click, then click Take Ownership. Right click again and press Rename, then name it “themeui.dll.backup”
