    I recently went through the effort to customize my vista x64 visual styles by editing the three .dll files in my system32 folder. I wasn't really satisfied with any of the themes (nice to look at, but each one had a user ability problem here or there that I just couldn't get over). I want to revert everything back to what it was. Obviously I can replace the original files back (which I did), but I also want the user permissions for the files to be as they were. Anyone have an instruction set or tutorial on making sure that all the ownership and permission rules are set to what they were before I altered them?

    Thanks much,
    Michael

    Gonna bump this...

    Basically what I'm asking is if a user could post their permissions/rules for the above files (the unedited permissions that is). In addition instructions on how to change to said "unedited" permissions" would also be great.
