    Deleting a theme

    Hello, I'm Sheri. I'll be happy to assist you.

    Here is how to delete a theme:

    Step 1: Open Settings app. Click Personalization icon, and then click Themes to see all installed themes as well as default themes.

    Step 2: To delete a theme, right-click on the theme tile, and then click Delete option.

    Note: You cannot delete the current applied them, so you will need to apply a different theme before deleting that one.

    Best wishes,

    Sheri D.

  4. I can't delete a theme on Windows 10.

    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.
