  1. Themes appear broken after Windows 10 -> 11 upgrade


    I've upgraded from Windows 10 to 11, and afterwards, the themes appear to be broken in terms of the hover / background. The text / windows are the same color making many menus unreadable / unusable. Switching to Dark Mode for a theme makes it better, but the same issue happens in dark mode in different but much fewer places. I have attempted deleting local cached icons and other files.I tried resetting Windows 11 while keeping apps/filesI tried resetting Windows 11 without keeping apps/filesI have tried installing all available updatesDisplay/Monitor drivers are up to date Nothing I have

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

  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.

  4. Themes appear broken after Windows 10 -> 11 upgrade

    Windows original themes are broken

    I notice you marked my post unhelpful in 3 minutes which is about 10 times faster than it would take to complete the steps I suggested.

    The screenshot shows there are no images in some of those Theme packages, and only 1 in the Light Theme you chose. So download and install some Themes from the store link I gave you to have Themes to choose from to customize.

    You can also customize your own Themes following one of these guides:
