View Full Version : Start Menu displays only in Classic style
Whether I select Classic or Start Menu (the standard XP
look), the Start Menu displays only in the classic style.
Anyone know how to repair this so that I can get the XP
style start menu back??

For anyone who experiences a loss of the XP Start Menu
theme (as I did), it can be restored by starting the
Themes service and then opening the luna.theme file
(located in the Windows/Resources/Themes folder) and then
saving the luna.theme as a new theme (same folder).
