|
|
====================================================
|
||
|
|
Setup Design:
|
||
|
|
====================================================
|
||
|
|
1. regsvr32 /i themeui.dll will put the prefered .theme and .mstheme files for profiles into
|
||
|
|
HKLM,Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Themes,InstallTheme & InstallVisualStyle
|
||
|
|
This will be based on policies. It will also call a uxtheme API to give it a chance to register.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Setup will specify the following default values for the machine:
|
||
|
|
x86 Personal: Consumer.theme & Consumer.mstheme
|
||
|
|
x86 Professional: Professional.theme & Professional.mstheme
|
||
|
|
Other: None
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. WinLogon will then call "themeui!DllInstall(TRUE, "/UserInstall")" per user login for the first time.
|
||
|
|
This will happen for new and upgrade users.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. If the user login:
|
||
|
|
a. isn't roaming
|
||
|
|
b. doesn't have the high contrast SPI_GETHIGHCONTRAST bit set.
|
||
|
|
c. the login isn't safe mode
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then the default theme/visual style will be installed for the local user.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. The one exception is that the background will not be set if the user already has one specified.

Cleanup Todo:
|
||
|
|
====================================================
|
||
|
|
If I have time for clean up, this is what I would do:
|
||
|
|
1. Remove plustab.dll from the product since it should no longer be used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Have Adv Dlg scale values so the fonts fit in them.
