It's a long process but trust me it's fun once you learn and create one of your own. Let's get started. A .theme file enables you to change the appearance of certain desktop elements. You can create or modify a .theme file in two ways: Modify personalization or display settings in Control Panel and save the settings as a .theme file. See your Windows Help for instructions.
