Title: Unable to open Win7 styles
Post by: Vzdorjii on October 13, 2009, 07:25:44 am
Hello !

I need your help about VSB. I can't open a Win7 msstyle file. I tried with "open an existing file" and "import a vista style", but still not work. It's like the file is empty.
I did a Visual Style for Win7 by editing with other apps, and now i want to create my next using VSB. So first i tried to open my own with the soft, and nothing happens. I tried with some other Win7 and Vista visual styles downloaded, same.
My system is patched. Is there another thing i forgot to do ?

Sorry guys, i fixed it. Had to run in admin that's right. For a french user like me, now i have to find a way to understand many things in this. In fact, i have to admit i prefer use a simple app like Restorator. But, I needed WSB because of backgrounds colors and text colors, which are too hard to modify only by editing hex code with notepad.
Is there a tutorial about where to modify colors ?
