Re: Aero theme is deleated

Aero is not a 'theme' so that is not where to get it back

You want 'Windows Color and Appearance'
Open classic appearance properties for more color options
in the appearance tab there should be a list for 'Color scheme:', windows
Aero should be at the top.

Re: Aero theme is deleated


Yeah. My bad. But that's what I meant. My aero "color scheme" is
deleted. It's not even under appearance settings.

Re: Aero theme is deleated


What do you mean by "theme service?" I can use all the other color
schemes if that is what you mean; Windows Vista basic, windows standard,
windows classic etc. Aero is just not even listed. I even tried creating
another user just for the heck of it; but it didn't work either.

Re: Aero theme is deleated

click on start & in the start search box type in Services.msc.
When you open that, search for a service by the name of themes, & make sure its status is started. If not then start it.

Re: Aero theme is deleated

you need to uninstall your GFX driver completely, reboot, enter in ''safe mode'', install the driver, reboot...... & Aero should have returned......
