Does it get dumped into the rubbish bin? If so then restore the files?
If not im not sure. Perhaps you need to download them or another nice theme.
so must i reinstall and uninstall the uxtheme patcher
does microsoft online have it

Which Service pack are you on win XP.

The uxtheme patcher doesn't do anything to your computer besides let you use unofficial Microsoft themes on your computer, It shouldn't affect performance, looks or anything unless you install a new VS. So why "unpatch" it?

Did you use the unpatch?

Try this:
  • Open Task Manager->File-New Task (Run...)
  • Type "Services.msc" No Quotes
  • A window with services should pop up. Scroll down to the service that says "themes"
  • Right click "Themes" click properties
  • Change the settings to:
    • Startup Type: Automatic
      make sure you hit the "Start" button in the properties window.
  • Hit ok and reboot

Lemme know if this helps.
Nah I just did System Restore
In future, I suggest you set the title to something more specific.

If you state your problem as quickly as you can in the title, others who might have had this problem will be able to contribute! Otherwise, they will just look over the thread.

This doesn't mean you write your problem in the title and have the body saying "Title explains".
You need to put as much detail as you can in the thread, the title is just to attract people who might have a certain degree of expertises on the subject.
Thanks Dudes
