superaymond Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I am having trouble getting the downloaded themes for window 7 off Microsoft website to work. The format off the website is .themepack while all the other themes that came with the laptop is .theme. I went on google and they suggested that I just open the .themepack file by double clicking it. However, it does not open at all when I click on them. Is there any way I can get the .themepack file to convert to .theme? Edit: new info The NASA theme is downloaded from microsoft website (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/personalize) It is different from what I have on system. One is .Theme, other one is .Themepack Thanks Dark Phoenix Clan Site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champion Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I downloaded the theme you linked to, and a different one from the same site, and they both worked fine for me. When it was finished downloading I just opened the file and Windows automatically changed to that theme. Go to Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Personalization. Do you see the downloaded themes there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champion Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I'm looking in the C:/Windows/Resources folder you're in and I don't see the themes I downloaded there. Are you manually putting them there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
