    Can't find installed themes


    I am trying to apply several themes that I downloaded/installed from the Microsoft Store. Only one installed where I can see it in Personalization>Themes and actually use it

    Of the others some said "You own this theme" and now say "Installed" but I cannot see them or use them.

    I have looked in all of the local folders where they are normally located on my laptop but they are not to be found.

    In those Windows Themes/Backgrounds, etc. local folders I can only see the same themes that I see in Settings>Personalization>Themes. It is as though Windows "thinks" they are installed. They are themes that I had at one time but are no longer to be found. I did perform a "restore" several months ago, but I cannot remember if that is when they went missing. I am on a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop running Windows 10 64-bit


    Thanks

    :)

  3. Win-10 themes keep changing

    Hi,

    Thank you for providing the information.

    • Did you try the steps suggested by Suvarna Govinda above, what was the result?
    As I understand the issue, Themes in Windows doesn't have the options to change on its own. Only the Wallpapers in the themes can change as selected ( Picture, Solid color and Slide Show ).

    I would suggest you to make us understand that if the Wallpapers are changing in Theme which you have selected.

    Below are the steps you can check if it helps.

    • Press Windows + I keys and select Personalization.
    • Select Theme and select the Default theme.
    • Select the Desktop Background below and select the Picture
      and save it and check.
    Please post us back if the issue resolves. We are glad to help you.
