[Fixed] Windows XP to Windows Vista Graphics

Axephilic · 07-16-2007

I used to have the WindowBlinds software however the 30-day trial ran out so I uninstalled it. Now I have no Run, Help, Search and a lot of other icons. It's just this blank thing. I installed an awesome freeware app that makes your GUI look like Vista and it works great! It is called Styler. If you want a link PM me. But anyways, I was thinking that this would put the icons back but it didn't. How can I get my icons back?

Thanks,
Adam

Oy,

Right click desktop, properties, select a theme, and it should bring everything back, then after that you can re-use your app to switch to Vista style.

Should sort you out

Thanks, I was really tired last night. And styler is 100x better and smaller. Only uses 728k in the task manager. I only have 256MB ram so I needed something different.

Thanks,
Adam
