I've tried so many times to get this setup and could never figure it out.
Can you someone post the steps or is there a video to let you know what to do once you've copied the files to the themes folder in windows?

You only need to do this once.
Patching files
1. You have to patch your system with Universal Theme Patcher.
2. Right click on the version you need (x86 or x64) x86 = 32bit

(To check what os you have, go to START, right-click on COMPUTER and choose PROPERTIES. You will see 32bit or 64bit)

3. "Run As Administrator" 

4. You will get a message saying files need to be patched.  Choose 'yes'.

5. Click the Patch button for each file.

6.  for x64 users only: after steps 1-4, go back and run the x86 theme patcher the same way

to see if there are extra files that need to be patched.  If so, do it

6. Restart your computer.

Installing Themes

1.  After you download and extract a theme.  The theme's folder structure should be something like:

"Theme Name"> FontsSystem FilesTheme

2. Install the fonts

3. Copy the contents of the Theme folder here:

C:/Windows/Resources/Themes

Your theme will now appear with the original Windows themes

Changing the exploreframe.dll (optional)

In the screenshot by CreateDestroy a few post up, you can see that

it still has the original Windows arrow buttons etc.  Changing the exploreframe.dll file

will change those button to the ones that come with the theme you installed.

here are the instructions on how to change it.

If want to change your theme again, you won't need to go through that entire list of steps to change the exploreframe.dll again

you will just need to go where the exploreframe.dll file is stored and replace it with the one from the theme you're using.
