Windows 10: Windows 11 In-Place Upgrade Theme Deletion

To keep this brief did an upgrade from Windows 11 21H2 to Windows 11 22H2 using the .iso file choosing to keep all files and applications. The upgrade was a success but I noticed it removed the custom theme Tom Clancy game and I had to do a new theme for the machine. Just want to know why this would be removed. I'm guessing because it was custom for a game release. Clarification is appreciated.

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.

I can't delete a theme on Windows 10.

One step is left out--Settings>Personalization> click on Themes in the left column>then right click on the one in your list of installed themes to delete. It will be in your recycle bin if you change your mind. Themes are not installed
on your computer until you select and install them in Get more themes in the MS Store.
