Maybe try re-installing?  Or, un-install to see if your normal theme's work right without VistaGlazz?  Maybe?  I guess?

As this is a third party application I would contact them and see if they have an answer. Also this should really be posted in software and not in win vista and 7 as it has nothing to do with either product.

It doesn't? Is this so? Not being able to Open The theme dialog, which is part of Windows Vista (I'm assuming this is what they mean by "properties->theme" since there is absolutely nothing even close in Vistaglazz) , has nothing to do with Vista? Alrighty then.  ;D

Seriously, the Original Poster is going to have to fill in a LOT of information.

Can't Open Vistaglazz

OK. please elucidate. what happens when you try. Error message, or what? If an error message what error?

Nothing as in it doesn't work, there's an error when you try, it shows up but it's blank, it doesn't show up at all, the listview containing the various theme choices are blank,  etc.?

You broke the file association.

Open notepad. paste the following:
