kirkforune · 21 Dec 2011

Hello, I really screwed up my computer. I was trying to use the Theme Installer than I downloaded from here to install the "Glass Onion" theme and after I restarted and logged in the desktop was BLACK and I keep getting this prompt (pop up) to select and change Start Button or Restore Original Explorer Backup.

It doesn't matter which option I click the pop up doesn't work Please Helpp!

Please Help me or refer the post to someone who can help because I don't know what to do.

Which os you are using?
From which website you downloaded theme( maybe its a virus}

Try to start pc in safe mode
Press f8 during start up and select safe mode and scan machine with your av or malwarebytes

Welcome to the Seven Forums
As GamePlanner said post a link to the theme.

Have you tried to do a system restore to a point before you install the theme?

Glass Onion ... I have used the theme previously , as I can remember . IMO you have made some mess while changing system files of the theme , what you need is to get back to the default at once .

First try the tutorial posted by Bongo ... follow the option two of System Restore .

If it is not fixed yet, try SFC /SCANNOW : Run in Command Prompt at Boot .

Post back with results .
