Install a theme to suit your taste on Windows. Installing a theme to suit your taste on Windows Patch for using third-party Windows 7
Installing a theme for Windows 7 is very simple and does not require any special computer skills from the user. Initial setup It will take about 5-10 minutes, since you need to patch the system and learn how to install new designs. If for the first time you carry out the installation strictly according to the instructions, then subsequent installations will proceed quickly, smoothly and smoothly.
Preparing the system to support third-party themes
If this is your first time installing a theme on your computer, you will need to patch the system.
After installing patches, you must restart your computer to make changes. After this, the system will be ready for installation third party themes.
If you want to change the Start menu icon and navigation buttons in File Explorer, you'll need to have permissions to system files explorer.exe(for the Start menu) andExplorerFrame.dll(for navigation buttons in Explorer).
The above steps only need to be done once. The following theme changes do not require re-installing patches or obtaining rights to system files.
Installing a theme
Step 1
In the downloaded archive we find the theme file in the format .theme(example: theme name.theme) and a folder with the same name. The file and folder must be copied to the system directory C:/Windows/Resources/Themes.
Step 2
Go to the personalization panel and in the “Installed themes” section we find our theme.
Step 3
Double-click on the theme name and observe changes in the interface design.

As you can see in the screenshot, we still have the same Start menu button and navigation buttons in Explorer. To replace these system elements, move on to the next point.
Replacing the start menu button
Find in the archive with the topic an image with a button in the format *.BMP(in our case the image is located in the folder " Orb") and set the button, .
Replacing navigation buttons in Explorer
If the theme archive contains the file ExplorerFrame.dll, copy it to the folder C:/Windows/System32.
- Go to the directory C:/Windows/System32 and find the file ExplorerFrame.dll.
- Rename the file ExplorerFrame.dll V ExplorerFrame.dll.old.
- Transfer a new file from the theme archive ExplorerFrame.dll to a folder C:/Windows/System32.
- Restart your computer or simply restart File Explorer for the changes to take effect.
If the archive does not contain the file ExplorerFrame.dll, then there are pictures in the format .BMP, which must be installed using the Windows 7 Navigation Buttons Customizer program.
You must have access rights to the ExplorerFrame.dll file. The first paragraph of the article describes how to obtain rights to this file.

Initially operating system Windows 7 does not support the ability to install third-party themes from other developers. But this problem can be solved very quickly and in a simple way, and today we will teach you how to install themes for windows 7 with detailed instructions with screenshots. The entire process does not require users to have any special PC skills.
Preparing the system
Firstly we need to prepare Windows system 7 to install third-party themes, namely install 2 patches:Installation process (pictures are clickable):
In the archive there is a patch for x86 and x64 bit OS, select the one you need and run it in administrator mode
At the initial stage of the installation process, you will have the opportunity to change the path for installing the patch 
Read the user agreement and agree with it, otherwise there is no other way =) 
The installation process has started 
Congratulations! 
2. Universal Theme Patcher
Run the patch as administrator
In the next step, the installer displays information about how many files need “treatment”
Next we need to click "Patch" in 3 places
The installer writes that all patches were installed successfully!
Installing a theme
1. Download any theme here, we will explain the installation process using the theme as an example2. All themes are packaged in an archiver and after downloading, the first thing we do is extract the contents of the archive, for example to the desktop
3. Place the contents of the “Theme” folder (1 file with the extension “.theme” and 1 folder of the same name with resources) in the directory C:/Windows/Resources/Themes.
4. After that, open the personalization panel and find our established theme and click on it. After 1-2 seconds the desktop design will change
5. The installation process for most themes ends here, but some still have graphic elements that have not yet been changed, in our case these are the Explorer navigation buttons and the design of the start button.
6. In this case, it is necessary to replace system files
Replacing system files
Here are the main ones:
Explorer.exe(changes the appearance of the Start button) - location C:/Windows
ExplorerFrame.dll(changes the design of the explorer navigation button) - location C:/Windows/system32
Shell32.dll(changes the background on the left side in the control panel) - location C:/Windows/system32
1. First, in order to be able to change these system files, you need to gain access rights to them. Read about how to do this here
2. Now you need to rename the “Explorer.exe” file to any other one. (For example in Explorer2.exe, Explorerorigin.exe, etc.)
3. Open our folder with the theme that we downloaded, copy the file “Explorer.exe” from there and paste it into the C:/Windows directory
4. We do the same actions with the remaining two files
5. After all these steps, for the changes to take effect, we need to restart the explorer or system
