Themes and XP Registry

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I wanted to know where/how to delete some themes in the Windows Registry and also to not have them show in the Display Tab of Appearance Properties... that's it!!

Just don't know where they are how to safely delete them (also in the Windows directory to actually delete them as well :crying_anim02:)

Thanks a lot!!!

C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\

Simplyy delete all of the .theme and folder to the themes you do not want....

Thanks guys, but what about the registry? Would anyone know if after I manually delete these, if Ccleaner would pick it up (in its' registry cleaner part)? I would also just like to know where they are located in the registry. Thanks again!!

The themes don't add any registry entries so you can safely delete the unwanted .theme and corresponding folder(s) from C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\

just done a quick seach in the registry and the only entires are for your current theme and these are overwritten when the theme is changed.

Sweetness! Thanks a lot. Some themes are exactly a like (no offense to anyone) so it's like having duplicates.
