Hello

With W11 24h2 (and sometimes with 23h2), every time I want to test a theme, I have the famous error message of the msstyles file which is not good
no problem, to modify it and save it

How to fix this problem ?

Thanks

PS: I use the latest WSB beta

I open and close the Show Controls window before testing. You only have to do this once per session.

Sometimes it's necessary to repatch your theme files

If that also doesn't work then I don't know what is wrong.

I succeeded but under Windows 11 23h2, under 24h2 it is impossible
I modified the aero.msstyles file of Windows 11 24h2 (but without testing it therefore)

But the theme does not work, I have this error message



Even just by opening the aero.msstyles in WSB, doing nothing, and saving, I have this error message

WSB is not compatible with the new version 26100.1301 of aero.msstyles (MS updated it recently by modifying some things in the theme)?
No problem with version 26100.1 of the .msstyles file

Thanks

I'm not running 24H2 so I can't help you.

Even if I were I wouldn't know what to say.

Try contacting Ave. Maybe he can help.

It's also possible your theme files patcher hasn't been updated to include your new build yet.

Put the 26100.1301 Aero folder in a zip file and attach it here.

I'll try to test it in 23H2.

Your zip file seems to be empty:



I need the msstyles. Preferably the entire folder.

The new msstyles won't test with WSB in 23H2 either.

Attached is a text file with the differences between the new msstyles and the one in 23H2. There's a lot of changes.

I still think it has something to do with theme file patches not updated to include this new build.

But I don't know for sure. Sorry.

Thanks so much for your help
I sent an email to Ave, I'll see if he answers me

The themeui.dll and uxinit.dll files are patched (my theme from aero.msstyles 26100.1 works fine)
But would a "different" patch be needed for the new version 26100.1301 ?

I don't know how you do for the differences, but here is the aero.msstyles 26100.1, there must be differences too

Patchers are always being updated.

Attached is the differences text file. There were only a few changes.

I get the differences text using DiffTool.exe that comes with WSB. Click the first msstyle you want checked and then the second and you get the resulting text file.

The problem comes from WSB

And no response to Ave's email
