I used to have, but I changed my theme and now when I go back into themes

aero is not there. I have vista home premium and all of the requirements are

met as well.

    Hello,

     

    what will happen if you try the following?

    Right-click your Desktop -> Personalization -> click "Window Color and Appearance"

    ->

    * click "Open classic appearance properties for more color options" and click Windows Aero

    * in the "Window Color and Appearance", check "Enable Transparency"

     

    Greetings,

    P. Di Stolfo

    Details???

     

    It could be that the option/program/procedure/hack you used to change the

    theme overwrote/deleted/hid the Aero Theme.

    Words, if you didn't make the change too long ago, you might try using

    System Restore to take you back to a time prior to having installed the

    theme All Programs\Accessories\System Tools\System Restore. While System

    Restore is designed to only restore system settings and the registry to a

    specific point in time, you should have your data well backed up prior to

    running it.
