Name: Metro
Description: Aero system theme for Windows 7
Author: Satukoro
Website: [link]
Wallpaper: [link]

Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your computer due to the replacement of system files or the installation of this theme.
These files have been created and tested on Windows7 Home Premium x64; they will work on other versions of Windows7, but not including x86 systems.
If you attempt to use the system files on x86, explorer will fail to start. Please backup the files you are replacing in case of failure.
However, I have included the bitmaps used in modifying the system files if you wish to do it yourself.

Instructions:

// Installation //

*Theme*
1. Open the 'Theme' folder.
2. Drag both 'metro.theme' and the 'Metro' folder to 'C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\'

*System Files* *See Disclaimer*
1. Open the 'Resources' folder.
2. Open the 'x64' folder.
3. Go about replacing (by means of backup and replace) 'C:\Windows\explorer.exe' with the 'explorer.exe' included in this .zip (only if your system is x64)
4. Go about replacing (by means of backup and replace) 'C:\Windows\system32\explorerframe.dll' with the 'explorerframe.dll' included in this .zip (only if your system is x64)

Please enjoy the theme.

/* Update 2012.2.15 */
Fixed some unskinned images in the start menu and a few other things.
Update .rar with Haxrcorp S8.fon

I'm having two issues with your theme (which is great by the way). First, the hover drop-down menu ( for creating new folders, organizing folder options) in explorer malfunctions whenever hovering over the options. Second, the text in the aero menu is white when right-clicking icons in the taskbar, so I can't see any text except the icons. Can these two things be addressed? Other than that, your theme is perfect.

Well balanced and pleasant vs. Did you notice the contextual menus on pinned (and unpinned) icons on the taskbar don't render the text properly? The tooltips work, though. Minor, but would be great if fixed. Nice work!
