FOR WINDOWS 10 CREATOR'S UPDATE AKA RS2 1703

How to:

You'll need your system patched with UX Theme Patcher.

Ultra UX Theme Patcher:

You'll also need 'Start Is Back' to apply the start menu & taskbar style & 'Old New Explorer' for windows explorer to look exactly like it is in the screenshot.

Start Is Back:

Old New Explorer:

Installation:
a.Extract the contents of the theme folder & copy them to:
C:\Windows\Resources\Themes
b.Use the 'Add Personalize Classic' registry file in zip to add option to desktop right click menu.
b.From right click menu go to:
Personalize(classic)>Theme settings
& select the theme.

Additional:
Check the 'SiB Settings' screenshots included for theme specific settings in SiB.

Bugfix:
Getting rid of white areas in themes after coming out of lock or sleep in Windows 10
Windows 10 loads theme color defaults from:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\DefaultColors] after every lock/sleep/hibernate.

Hence any time you put your pc to sleep/ hibernate or use Ctrl+Alt+Del to go to the lock screen & then resume back to windows,
certain areas of task manager & other windows turn white while using custom dark themes

Fix:
Open regedit & navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\
Under themes you'll find a folder/registry key called: 'DefaultColors'
Make a backup of that key, take ownership of it, and then delete that whole key.
The bug should be fixed now.

Enjoy.
