Here is a link in dutch.

Update: Razorblade has released the final DreamScene version for non-Ultimate, English language, and working for both 32 and 64 bits. It better works having SP1 installed (because its themecpl.dll supports DreamScene). It's the same installation method (a batch file), but please read the Readme.txt file first.

Here are the steps to take the ownership of files...but take backup of these files for safety purposes...or just rename the files again, by removing "original" from the end of the name in case of any issues, although it should not happen.
First you will need to access an elevated command prompt, to do this:

1. Click the Start button.

2. Click All Programs.

3. Go into Accessories.

4. Right-click on Command Prompt.

5. Select Run as administrator.

6. When the UAC Prompt appears, click Continue.



Once you have your elevated command prompt, follow these steps:

In this case, i'm taking example of "themecpl.dll" file:

1. At the command prompt, input takeown /f filepath (takeown /f c:\windows\system32\themecpl.dll).

2. Press Enter on the keyboard.

3. A message will be displayed that this completed successfully.

4. Now input icacls filepath /grant yourusername:f (icacls c:\windows\system32\themecpl.dll /grant user:f).

5. A message will be displayed that this completed successfully.

You will now be able to modify or replace the file. Repeat the steps for all the files. When you are done, simply remove the permissions to keep the file secure.
