    Basic Customisation


    Have been trying to change the background theme and everything went alright until i went to windows.microsoft.com/en-GB/window/themes and saved a theme called SpectacularSkies. All went well until i realised that the theme had been downloaded into the download folder. Could someone tell me how to move the theme into the correct folder so i can set it as the background theme please. Thanks all.

    Hello Bonesy,

    That link doesn't work, but I found it here instead.
    You should be able to just double click on the .themepack file to install it and have it available in Personalization.
    Hope this helps, :)
