    StyleXP - Visual Styles Question

    Ok, i have been trying that StyleXP thing, i downloaded a few themes and went to install them, though they have been installed as Visual Styles (whats the different between a theme/style?), everytime i restart my PC the theme shows as Windows Classic. I can set an option to apply them every restart, but that shows the XP skin apply thing (taking memory and time).

    If i set a visual style, is there anyway to keep it applied, even when i restart?

    Difference between a style and a theme. What thing did you download to style it?

    Visual Styles should always stay applied, i don't understand why they don't...

    So its not a problem for me then, its pointless putting a visual style on if like you say, you have to reapply it every session

    im using StyleXp trial, i hwas hoping to put the theme i wanted on then get rid of stylexp. But if i need to keep reapplying on startup its no good.

    i tried this theme/style whichever:

    Once you install there program you can download themes. When you download the theme double click the theme and it should auto apply it. It should work even in differnt sections. Maybe you dont have premission to write to the system folder it puts the themes in? Also you need to manuely install the fonts I think.
