If you’ve experienced various technical issues after upgrading to the Windows 10 Creators Update, theUXStyle softwaremay be the culprit. This program enables third-party theme customization on Windows computers.
According to recent user reports, this tool sometimes causes a series of severe bugs, includingBSODs, random driver crashes, as well asWindows Explorer issues.
How to fix Creators Update issues caused by UXStyle
The good news is that the UXStyle software is compatible withthe Creators Update OSas long as you install it after you’ve upgraded your computer. Indeed, users confirm that the issues listed above occur only if you install the latest Windows 10 version whilst this software is installed.
In order to avoid these issues, you need to first uninstall the UXStyle software before you hit the upgrade button. Once the Creators Update has been installed on your computer, you can download and install the UXStyle software again.
Here’s how one userdescribesthis whole situation:
If you are using theUXStylesoftware that allows you to install custom themes,UNINSTALL ITright now. If your system updates to the latest build of Windows whilst this software is installed, it will effectively brick your installation with random BSODs, random driver crashes and a lack of a working Windows Explorer. This happened to me on 3 computers, all of them I have had to reinstall the OS on.
Please share this around so others don’t fall into the pit that I did.
