Themes

[Gordon]

Where can I find some simple, comprehensible informaiton as to how to
set up and manage the themes on my Windows 8 computer. I have done a
right click on the desktop then left click on personalize. This brings
up a lot of information but if falls way short in telling me how to
import some of my favorite pictues and other such personal
arrangements. Any suggested books or web site information?

Thanks, Gordon

Thanks, Brian. I've tried this and it works for wallpaper but I can't
seem to get it to work for themes. I did find a help page in the ?
link at the top right corner of the Personalization page. I think I
have this figured out, now. Thanks for your response. Gordon

Presumably you have come across the directory -

c:\windows\resources

I have never used themes, preferring to adjust their individual components.
