Windows 10: Custom themes not working

Whenever I try to use a custom theme downloaded from the likes of DeviantArt, I get this (i.e. horrible big borders and boxes round the minimize etc buttons, and no element of the theme), it's basically the same as the inbuilt Aero Lite theme:

Custom Themes not working on Microsoft Solitaire

I did what you said and used the troubleshooter. It said that my cache was damaged, so I reset the cache. I checked the Store and it seems like everything has been updated. I reloaded and the problem is still there.

I also reseted it manually and the troubleshooter said there was still the cache problem.

• Press Windows + X on your keyboard.
• Select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type wsreset.exe, and then hit Enter.
• Launch Windows Store and check if there are available updates and install them.

We will appreciate if you can update us the results so if these solutions won't work, we will find another way to resolve your concern.

 

What Build of Windows 10 are you using?

 

Well it should work then. I would ask the Developer at DA about it.

 

Yeah that was my first port of call, but he just said he had no idea. Great! *092 It applies to all themes i've tried though so it's not as if it's an issue with just his theme.
