Setting a custom default theme?

[feet]

Hey guys,

So I tried doing this a number a ways without luck.

The first thing I tried was saving the theme from the Personalization menu, and then adding it to Basic->Theme Packs in Win Toolkit, and then selecting it as the default theme. This almost worked, but unfortunately, when you use save/export it from the Personalization menu it doesn't save all the required files which are located in C:\Windows\Resources\Themes. So I decided to try adding these missing files via Advanced->Files, and keeping the theme set as default in Theme Packs and no dice. When applying a theme from Theme Packs it seems to erase the folder you've added manually via the Files tab.

When applying a theme, does Windows change any .dlls that I can just add via Files?

Has anyone successfully changed the default theme to a custom one? (Other than the basic colours and wallpaper)?


I'd really appreciate any help on the matter since I can't seem to figure this one out.

Yep, it sets theme default, but all wallpapers, etc are missing for that theme.
