I could only find information about packing a .theme. Which is useless to me. I want to know how to edit the visual of more advanced things for windows 7 like the explorerframe, shell32, etc...

How do these display the visual on a Windows 7 custom theme?

don't edit the DLLs this causes issues with sfc

the real theme are the msstyles files.

You can use this tool to edit the theme file:

Thanks a lot for the link I have lots of spare time on my hands for computers, and I was interested in creating a full theme of my own. I'm sure if system file checker raised any issues for me I could keep a backup of the original dll in my main system drive and replace it with the custom one if needed through cmd. But i'll stay away from them at this point, since it looks like there is another method here that you've pointed out to me.

Update: Shame It's not free. People don't make it easy to develop for Windows do they? lol

you can also use a Resource Hacker tool like Anolis.Resourcer

or

to replace the resources of the msstyles.

Ahh I wasn't thinking at the time. I actually already have tools of my own for this then.
