You are talking about a DX theme? If so,you will need builder mode running to change anything.If you only have client mode,that won't be possible.If you need to upgrade to a better version,I believe there is a discount.Contact sales,I'm sure they will help you.

You dont need to buy it to modify desktop, a free version can also do so. I am writing a quick note on how you can do so to get it in detail please check wiki.wincustomize.com

1)Right click on DesktopX client icon in systray and select switch to Dxbuilder.

2)Right click on the object whose target you want to change and select properties. Next On general tab click on change button and then select the target application by browsing and apply it.

3)Right click on the object whose words you want to change and select properties. If you have opened the properties window in the previous step then skip this step.

4)Go to states tab.

5)Change the text in the text box for each state. You can edit text for individual states by selecting them one by one and editing the text for each.

6)At last click on O.K. and you are all done.

Hope this will give you a little help.

cl1ckm3.exe: The only way to modify anything using the DesktopX Runtime client is if modification is supported through the user interface. For example, the theme might pop up a context menu when you right click, giving you the ability to adjust certain options.

When you use the DesktopX Runtime client, the option to enter builder mode is unavailable, as you are only able to run objects, widgets and desktops.

'Builder mode' option unavailable
'Create' option unavailable

If you think you may ever want to edit anything I highly suggest exchanging your purchase for DesktopX Standard, which is only an additional $10. The standard version is capable of so much more than the client.
