If you mean running the Uxtheme patcher, then yes it will change the file as there is only one of it on your computer.

All the Uxtheme patcher does, is it allows you to use unsigned themes, nothing more nothing less.

If you are the Admin user and change a theme as per usual, it would change the theme on other users accounts I would have thought.

Is there a way to change the splash screen when you open outlook express? I'm so sick of looking at it! There must be a way to change it.

You'd need to use a program called Reshacker

http://www.users.on....resourcehacker/

And then you'd need to know what file the image is stored in for the splash screen, I just had a look for it and couldn't find it.

Most likely it's in a .dll somewhere.

Hmm, I dunno then.

When I first found the Uxtheme patcher it didn't work for me, only on the next fresh install did it work.
