The theme can be used in Windows 7 only. Both 32-bit and 64-bit editions are supported. It can be used in Windows 7 systems with or without SP1.
Interested people can download the theme using following link:
After downloading the ZIP file, extract it and you'll get 2 folders:
- Visual Style
- Explorer Frames
STEP 1: Copy content of "Visual Style" folder to "%windir%\Resources\Themes\" folder (where %windir% means "Windows" directory present in system drive where Windows is installed. Most probably C: drive). Now you can apply the theme using Desktop Personalization window. But make sure you have patched your system to use custom 3rd party themes.
STEP 2: "Explorer Frames" folder contains files to replace default Back/forward buttons present in Windows Explorer with new Metro style buttons. To use them:
If you are using 64-bit Windows 7, you'll need to replace "ExplorerFrame.dll" file present inWindows\System32 and Windows\sysWOW64 folders with the new files present in "ExplorerFrames\.dlls\x64 (64-bit)" and "ExplorerFrames\.dlls\x86 (32-bit)" folders.
If you are using 32-bit Windows 7, you just need to replace "ExplorerFrame.dll" file present inWindows\System32 folder with the new file present in "ExplorerFrames\.dlls\x86 (32-bit)" folder.
