Installing themes on Windows 10:


Some Tools You May Need

Uxstyle, Theme Signature Bypass (http://virtualcustoms.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=74615&d=1470338612) and UltraUxThemePatcher
UxTheme service hook - Visual Theme Signature Bypass

ONE (OldNewExplorer) (http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/170375-oldnewexplorer-118/)
OldNewExplorer is the Windows 10 (and Windows 8.1, and 8) shell extension / tweaker which can undo "improvements" to file browsing made in newer Windows versions. Everything is optional for your liking.
For best results, use these settings:

StartIsBack++ for Windows 10 (http://startisback.com/#download-tab)
What's hot about StartIsBack on Windows 10 now?
Full taskbar skinning!
Ability to reduce resource usage by disabling newer Start menu and Cortana processes from prelaunching
Ability to use adequately sized (32x32) large icons and larger start menu button on taskbar
Modern icon glyphs on Start menu right hand pane
Modern blur, drop shadow and immersive context menus for start menu
Fully dynamic DPI aware start menu and configuration app
New modern style with round user picture
Lots of new minor additions and tweaks

I take no responsibility for anyone that bricks their system, use custom themes at your own risk

Thank you so much for this Erin!
Question tho, the theme works perfectly except on the taskbar, Taskbar is grey.
Is that because I need to use StartIsBack++? I never had to use that before, if so is there a tutorial here on the site or a pic with the options I should have checked?
Sorry just wanna make sure I don't mess anything up. lol

I couldn't get it to work right until I messed around with SIB, now it's looking just like your first screenshot/post. Just as I was looking for. Thank again Erin! Appreciate this. :)

Thank you so much for this theme, I can't imagine having a non purple Win10 anymore. There are so few purple themes out there.
I have a little issue with mine and I'm not sure what I could have missing, perhaps you might have an idea?

It has this highlighted text on a few windows, like copying, snippet, installers etc. for example.
