Microsoft released new Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, which brought new desktop topics --Energy Blue (also known as Royal). I want to try to have a friend who only has Windows XP Professional / Home Edition on the hand, this time you walk!
Raw materials
Microsoft officially released a separate Energy Blue theme package, but unfortunately, the official page declares that this theme package is designed for tablet PC, and you need to put the service pack 2 on the system.
2. Extract the required documents
However, we clearly know that the simple subject file is not picky for the system for the Tablet PC, so I don't follow the normal installation process, but use some decompression software (such as WinRAR) to extract the files:
In fact, we only need to extract the following four files:
Royal.Theme Royale.mstyles ShellStyle.dll EnergyBliss.jpg
3. Establish an home for the new theme
We know that Windows puts the subject files in the x: / windows / resources / themes folder (X is the drive letter of the current system). Then we are here for Energy Blue Annes:
4. Let Energy Blue come in
Arrange ROYALE.THEME to stay in X: / windows / resources / themes; arrange ROYALE.MSSTYLES to stay in X: / windows / resources / themes / royale; Arrange ENERGYBLISS.JPG to stay in X: / Windows / Resources / Themes / Royale / Wallpaper However, shellStyle.dll is a little special, you have to reserve the following four rooms to give it:
X: / windows / resources / themes / royale / resources / themes / royale / shell / themes / royale / shell / normalcolor x: / windows / resources / themes / ROYALE / shell / Royale
5. All the best, only owe the application
After you arrange everything, you can choose the Energy Blue theme in the Topic Tab showing the Properties! If you see it here, don't tell me, you don't know how to apply the topic!
6. What else is it?
Since the author uses the English version of Windows XP Professional, and there is no test in other operating systems, if you use the different operating systems with my different operating systems, I want to taste the fresh, then you have to pay attention to it. Prepare the effort. Of course, if you are using the operating system of Windows 2000 or below, then this article is for appreciation!
