UXTheme Patcher is a Windows customization utility designed to modify the system’s theme-signature checks so that compatible third-party visual styles can be applied. If you want to change the appearance of your Windows desktop beyond the themes supplied by Microsoft, this tool may help prepare your system for custom themes.

Use the download button below to get the UXTheme Patcher package provided on Skinpacks. Before installing, read any instructions included with the package and confirm that the release is suitable for your Windows version.

Windows compatibility
The existing Skinpacks download listing identifies Windows 11 and Windows 10 as supported operating systems. Compatibility can depend on the exact Windows build and the particular patcher release, so check the package documentation before making changes. Do not assume that every release works with every Windows update.
How to prepare Windows for custom themes
- Check your Windows version and build in Settings under System > About.
- Create a System Restore Point so you have a recovery option before changing system components.
- Download the package using the button above and review the included documentation.
- Only run the installer or patching utility if you trust its source and understand the changes it makes. Follow the instructions supplied with that specific release.
- Restart Windows if the utility’s instructions require it, then test a compatible visual style.
System customization tools can modify or affect Windows components. Back up important files first, avoid running unknown executables, and do not continue if the package reports that your Windows build is unsupported.
Find Windows themes
UXTheme Patcher is intended as a customization-enabling utility, not a theme collection. Browse the Windows themes collection to find visual styles. Check each theme’s own compatibility notes and installation instructions before using it.
Frequently asked questions
What does UXTheme Patcher do?
It is designed to modify Windows theme-signature checks so that compatible third-party visual styles can be used. It does not itself provide a collection of themes.
Does UXTheme Patcher support Windows 11 and Windows 10?
The Skinpacks download listing names Windows 11 and Windows 10. However, support may vary by Windows build and patcher release. Check the documentation for the exact version you download.
How do I download UXTheme Patcher?
Use the Download button on this page. Review the downloaded package and its included instructions before running anything.
Should I create a restore point before using it?
Yes. Because this type of utility changes how Windows handles visual styles, creating a System Restore Point and backing up important files beforehand is a sensible precaution.
Can I use UXTheme Patcher to download Windows themes?
No. The utility is for enabling compatible custom-theme functionality. You can browse available visual styles in the Skinpacks themes collection.
I copied all these files as described. Now what? There are no new themes…

Thank you everyone (sorry, I’m a beginer with this)
toda installled another minor update for wind 10 , problem solved now i able to install skinpacks again , same files which i tried earlier failed,
skin packs not installing past one week after a new minor windows 10 update, it stucks at please wait checking system , also automaticcally old icons gone and back to windows default , only folder icons and rocket dock works
I have windows 10, It worked like a charm…Bump!
Tried this method twice, very carefully, step-by-step, resulting in failed installations. Running Win10 10586.36 in virtualbox, so I only had to reset it to the last snapshot, but it’s frustrating to waste a few hours following faulty instructions and/or products.
I should have been leery, since English and clarity appear to be a struggle for the author, but I really wanted a nice nonflat theme.
I made sure to get all downloads for 10586 and not the older ones. Has ANYONE had success installing to this version?
I did not install either uxstyle or uxthemepatcher. I followed the instructions for downloading the uxtheme patcher and then apply the take ownership command. Renamed the 3 files, replaced the existing files with the patched ones and applied the theme from sagorpirbd.deviantart.com/ for windows 7 aero glass. Everything works great and did not need to install a third party program to make everything work
Come on guys I’m waiting from last year for a reply :P!
Hi,

Andrea
Is there any chance to get the old alienware themes working for this version of 10 in near future?
This is not really a fix if I can’t use my themes already installed even if I reinstall them they don’t work I get a blank screen and have to do a system restore.
the old theme not work you need to use new themes from here: http://neiio.deviantart.com/gallery/

Found I allow special acess/full control for user in properties > security > advanced > User > tick everything > apply
I could not rename files so i use unlocker it worked but not with the two other files.
