  1. Some people are saying windows 8 ux pack is malware. I need to know for sure if this is true or not. I dont want to risk it.

  2. After reboot, all applications that I pinned on Newgen simply disappeared and reverted to default applications and widgets. Is this a bug or something?

  3. ^^ You should create a system restore point before installing the pack and whenever you want to restore default Windows look, just restore your system to that restore point.

  4. how to system create restore point?
    after installation of the windows 8 ux, if i want to install any other software means which windows have to select

  5. I been looking into videos,asking question,on the whole system restore,and my question is Do I do create a sysmet restore,befor I install the UXpatcher???or do I download the UXpatcher???,Then create a restore point ??,then install the UXpatcher and run it???and do I run this as administrater??? The UXpatcher???second question is!,Do I first download all necessary themes and what else is needed,to change theme,bar,ECT,ECT.???after the download,then create a restore point???,after that do I start the installing of themes,ECT???or befor I do all that do I create restore point,then download,themes,and everything else needed???i hope this does not confuse you???one more question!!!,Is downloading one thing,and installing another???this I ask,for the purpose of the restore point.Again hope you understand what I’m trying to say???This being my first time doing all this?with little experiacne of a computer…

  6. ^^ You can download the stuff and then create System Restore point. Just keep one thing in mind! System Restore point should be created before patching your system using UXPatcher and before installing themes.
