Hello,
I am trying to make my WinXP classic color scheme look like WinPE 2. If you open notepad in WinPE 2, you'll see that the menus have 2 colors when highlighted. I exported the colors from WinPE registry [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Colors]. They are the same values as in XP's classic color scheme, so there has to be more. Is there anywhere else in the registry where theme settings are stored. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.
The key you gave me has the same colors as the one I found earlier. It looks like the GUI is using windows xp style menus vs the classic menus. I want to use the classic scheme, but I want the menus to use the xp style menus.
WinPE is doing it like that imo. I want to replicate that in WinXP.
EDIT: OK, my research has led me to the topic of manifests.
