Alienware Windows 10 Theme
– It Came from Outer Space to Take Over Your Desktop –
A few years ago, I put up an Alienware Theme for Windows 7 tutorial that was massively popular. Now it’s time to build up a new desktop with Windows 10. With an amazing Alienware Visual Style for Windows 10 and a sleek Alienware Skin for Windows 10 with Rainmeter, you’ll create the best free Alienware Windows 10 Theme out there.
This theme will be split in to 3 parts: Introduction, Visual Style and Rainmeter. Each part will have step-by-step instructions to guide you along. Ready? Let’s get started!
Introduction & Preparation
The following is high-level desktop customization. You’ll be using various tools and resources to bring together a unique desktop that represents the futuristic sci-fi theme of the Alienware systems regardless of whether you actually own an Alienware PC or not.
1. REQUIREMENTS: This theme requires that you have Windows 10 with the November 2015 update installed. So it must be Version 1511, Build 10586. Trying this theme on other builds is not likely to work. To find out which version of Windows you have, type winver in the start menu and hit enter.
2. CAUTION: While the process is fairly simple and should take about 15 – 30 minutes to set up, make sure you follow the instructions correctly and backup any file that you may have to modify. Just drop a comment below if you need any help. Before we begin installing the theme, make sure you create a system restore point so that we can restore our PC in case something goes wrong. It is really important you do this before going to the next step.
3. TO DOWNLOAD: Imagine we are going to build a spaceship and we need to assemble all the parts first. Download these 4 files that are listed below. Do NOT run any of them for now.
Extract the contents of the AlienwareThemeRaiderDownloads.rar into a new folder and put the other 3 files that you downloaded in there as well. So you end up with a similar folder like this for quick access.
Now we’ll move on to installing the visual style for our theme.
Installing Alienware Visual Style
A Visual Style is a 3rd party theme that will change several aspects of your PC. This includes changes to your explorers, task bar, start menu, cursor, sound and icons. Credits to AlienByte for creating the Alienware visual style that we’ll be using.
In order to use 3rd party themes, you need to patch your system by installing the following applications. If you’ve already used 3rd party themes before it is likely your system is already patched, in which case you may not have to install these applications again.
1. OldNewExplorer: Extract the OldNewExplorer.rar file that you downloaded to a new folder and run the OldNewExplorerCfg program. Set the settings as the same as the screenshot you see below. Hit Install and complete the installation.
2. StartIsBack: Next run the StartIsBackPlusPlus_setup.exe file that you downloaded and complete the installation. After installation, simply close the program if it runs automatically.
3. UXThemePatcher: Now extract the UXThemePatcher10.rar file that you downloaded and run the UXThemePatcher10.exe and complete the setup. After the installation is complete the system will do a quick restart.
4. Copy Theme Files: The next thing we need to do is extract the contents of the alien_return_azure_theme__w10__november_update__by_alien_byte-d9lqven.zip file that you downloaded into a new folder. Navigate to the Theme W10 TH2 Alien Return Azure folder inside it.
Copy paste the two contents of that folder into the C:\Windows\Resources\Themes folder of your PC.
5. More Patching: Extract the contents of the Theme Patcher.rar that you downloaded into a new folder. You’ll find a Add_Take_Ownership_to_context_menu file inside a Take Ownership REG files folder. Run it and confirm to complete the registry change.
5a. Now go to your C:\Windows\System32 folder and search for themeui.dll. Right click the file and click Open File Location.
5b. Right click the file and click Take Ownership. Select Yes when prompted for confirmation.
5c. Now right click the file again and rename it to themeui.dll.del. Click Yes and then Continue when prompted.
5d. Now copy/paste the themeui.dll file that you’ll find in the File Patch x86 (if your Windows 10 is 32-bit) or File Patch x64 (if your Windows 10 is 64-bit) folders from Step 5 to the C:\Windows\System32 folder.
5e. Repeat steps 5a to 5d for two more files: uxtheme.dll and uxinit.dll.
6. RESTART: Once you’ve copy/pasted all 3 files, restart your system for patches to take effect.
7. Taskbar Color Effect: Extract the contents of the TBCE.zip file that you downloaded into a new folder. Run the Taskbar Color Effect.exe file that you extracted. You’ll find it added as a new icon in your systray. Right click the icon and go to Settings.
Once it opens, select Custom Image BG option. It’ll prompt you to select an image so browse to the Taskbar Alien Return Azure TBCE folder that you extracted in Step 4 and select that Alien Return Azure taskbar image.
Click Save for changes to take effect.
8. Alienware Theme Raider Theme Pack: For the last step, run the AlienwareWindows10ThemeRaider.deskthemepack file that you downloaded. And voila, if you did everything right, you’ll have something that looks like this with modified explorers, task bar, icons, cursors and sounds.
If your taskbar doesn’t look the same, try to run StartIsBack and set the transparency of the taskbar to 100%. Also make sure the taskbar icons are set to Large Size by right clicking the taskbar and selecting Properties.
If it still doesn’t look right, drop a comment below with a screenshot of your PC and I’ll take a look.
That’s it for the visual style. In the next part, we’ll get that cool Rainmeter skin for our desktop.
Adding Alienware Rainmeter Skin
1. Rainmeter: As you may already know, Rainmeter is a light weight productivity application that can change your desktop completely. If you don’t already have it, go right ahead and set it up.
2. Fonts: The rainmeter skin uses a font called DS-Digital so go ahead and download the DS-Digital font. Extract the fonts to a new folder and right click and select Install to install them to your PC.
3. Alienware Theme Raider Skin: Once you’ve installed Rainmeter and got the hang of things, simply run the AlienwareThemeRaider_.rmskin file that you downloaded. Credits to deviantart user designfjotten for creating the rainmeter skin and wallpaper that we use for our theme. With the settings set as below, install it.
The Alienware skin and layout should be loaded automatically. Depending on your monitor resolution the skins might not be placed exactly as you see below. You can simply click and drag as them as you like.
You’ll find several skins that show Hard Disk usage, CPU & RAM usage, Network usage and Recycle Bin status. There are 2 skins that show the Uptime of the PC as well as the current time.
And that’s it! Congrats
! You’ve successfully completed this tutorial. Kudos to you for sticking through to the end!
You can take things one step further by modifying all your icons. Here’s a cool Alienware icon pack that might be of help. You could also check out more rainmeter skins to add to your desktop.
RESET TO DEFAULT: Change the theme back to the default Windows 10 theme to switch back the Visual Style to default. Uninstall StartIsBack to switch back to the Windows 10 task bar and Start Menu.
CREDITS: As mentioned before, credits to deviantart users designfjotten and AlienByte for creating the cool rainmeter skin and visual style respectively.
Hope you liked this theme. If you have any questions, suggestions or comments, drop them below. Good luck
Alienware AlienFX
Review
Media plugin that provides owners of Alienware laptops with customization for LED lighting, keyboard zones, touchpad and themes with support for multiple games for gamers.
Alienware AlienFX is a set of plug-ins for Alienware computer systems, now a part of Dell.
The program is designed especially for gamers who enjoy immersive gaming, providing the ability to customize lighting effects that are activated by action on the screen.
AlienFX is fully compatible with the LED controls for keyboards, touchpads/trackpads, keyboard zones and other areas where LED lighting is present.
Keyboard lighting is divided into zones, meaning separate areas can be lit up with different colors or all together as a unified color scheme. A color wheel can be used to choose which colors are used and gradients may also be applied.
AlienFX comes with different preset themes and anything that is user-created can be saved as a preset under «My Themes».
The program can also be configured to activate different patterns during set events, such as when an email is received.
Alienware AlienFX is supposed to work with the Alienware Command Center and anybody who wishes to install the program should certainly own an actual Alienware PC, not an imitation. The application is generally used with older systems as newer versions of Dell’s customization for Alienware PCs is directly built-in to the system software.
