If you want to use Vista icons without installing Vista Customization Pack, maybe you want to try this method. [tags]vista, vista icons, icontweaker[/tags]
- Download and install IconTweaker. (Don’t worry. It is free. :d )
- Then, download Vista icon pack.
- Extract and double click the icon theme to install it.
- Once installed, click on Vista icon in IconTweaker and choose Load Theme.
- Finally, click Ok. Done!
There are two more icon packages available for download. Ubuntu and OSX. Try them too. ;))

I actually got the skin/icon package. with my version you can pick if you just want the icon or the skin. I’m not sure if it’s the same with the newer versions.

I downloaded vista icons but could not install it.
plz tell me how to install vista icons in windows xp
I have uploaded the icon pack on my googlepages. So you can download the pack now. Sorry for any inconvenience.
#srinivas – The instruction is on this post.
This just completes the package, just last night……i downloaded A Vista Visual Style, that makes my taskbar look like Vista…taskbar [ without the transparent thingy ] .. So I downloaded Transbar.. a free software…. that adds transparency to your taskbar.. . Another program called YzShadow.exe just google this two softwares……Their both free.. It adds transparency to your startup menus & drop down menus….
And than to top it off with Vista Icons……My actually thought i downloaded Vista OS …HA HAHAHA HA LOL..
aNEWAY
Thanks for the Vista icons packs
very good so good
The vista icons r pretty good. How about putting it to the limit- getting some that moves, and some vista dialoge messages including logon\off ,transfer,confirm delete etc. , if its not too much to ask for. thanks:-D
Hi. The links for OSX and Ubuntu icons are dead. Any ideas? Thanks@
I am sorry. I don’t have the backup file. If not I can upload it to Goolgepages.
i tried to download the icontweaker but it says:
HTTP Error 404 – File or directory not found.

I had already installed a vista theme. After this it really looked like vista. My Uncle asked me “When did I install Vista on my PC”
