Of Windows Aero theme disappeared!

• My windows aero theme disappeared on my dell inspiron 1545.

  I put my computer in mode 'sleep' last night, and after a few hours I turned back on it. much to my annoyance, available to windows on usual measure was nowhere to seen, and he was replaced by a gray opaque which I don't like so much. I realized to my horror that my beloved theme Aero, which I had used for 2 years, was absent, and instead the computer has been set by default at the base of Vista. I was not uncomfortable with its primitive features, so I decided to find out how to get Aero.

  The first thing I did was click on personalize, then window color and appearance. This didn't work at all, as long as the option was not among the choices of Windows Aero. So that's all for the Plan.

  I raised the questions of other users who have had the same problem. Among solutions prohibited for them was that graphic drive should be upgraded. I know that my drive has been already updated a few months before this problem, he didn't need.

  Then, I heard to reconfigure a certain place in the register, namely HKEY_CURRENT_USER, in order for Aero back, so I thought I would try it out. I walked into the registry "regedit", scrolled down to find this place, and would you believe, I could NOT EVEN FIND the!

  Either it is nowhere in the registry or it hides like ninja among the masses in there. (If anyone can tell me how to locate in the registry, I would be happy).

  Now I'm not sure what to do. My computer will be like a stranger to me without the Aero theme and I want the good old, friendly computer back I've had for two years. If anyone, no matter WHO, he knows the ultomate solution, I will deal with my best friend of the internet worldwide (not literally, just a figure of goodwill). So please, give me an answer!

  HOLY (insert moderately vulgar expletive)!

  MY WINDOWS AERO THEME SUDDENLY APPEARED FROM nowhere SHARE, zigzag3143x

  OK, HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED:

  IN WHAT I THOUGHT, IT WAS SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT (AND LESS IMPORTANTLY), I NOTICED THAT THE RESOLUTION OF THE SCREEN WAS TOO WIDE FOR MY TASTE SO I RIGHTCLICKED ON THE DESK AND WENT TO CUSTOMIZE AND THEN CLICK DISPLAY SETTINGS.

  I CHANGED THE RESOLUTION, AND NOT ONLY CHANGED THE SIZE, HE BROUGHT BACK THE AERO! IT IS ACTUALLY RETURNED, FEATURES, COLORS AND ALL! I PUT THE COMPUTER TO SLEEP AND IT WAS RESTARTED TWICE, AS I DID WHEN AERO DISAPPEARED. NOTHING HAPPENED, THE NA NO AERO IS IN GO

  IM SURPRISED. I MEAN, THE RESOLUTION WAS A WORLD AWAY FROM THE AERO QUESTION, AND NOW THESE TWO ARE NOW LINKED IN SOME WAY.

  zigzag3143x, I'M STUNNED AND HAPPY AT the SAME TIME, BUT ALSO WOOLLEY. I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE GRAPHICS DRIVER, ALTHOUGH I WAS DUBIOUS, BUT I NEVER THINK THAT A SIMPLE SCREEN RESOLUTION CHANGE WOULD BRING BACK MY BELOVED WINDOWS AERO.

  I'M GOING TO INSTALL A NEW DRIVER BECAUSE I AGREE WITH YOU THAT IT MIGHT BE DAMAGED, BUT CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW THIS HAPPENED?

  THANKS FOR YOUR HELP MAN! YOU ARE A BROTHER FOR LIFE

• Of Windows Aero theme does not

  I know there are a lot of other posts on this subject online, but their solutions have yet to help me.  My windows Aero theme has suddenly stopped working.  I ran the store and he tells me that it is a problem of graphics, but I can still run games like 2 Troubleshooting and Minecraft very well.  I have a laptop HP Pavilion dv6 with an AMD Radeon HD 7600 M Series and AMD Radeon HD 7640 G + double HD 7600 M graphics card.  I also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the drivers for the cards, but without success.  If there is anything else I can try, please let me know.  Thanks for the help.

  Thank you very much for the help.  I will try your solution, but my windows eventually break I guess.  I decided just to format the hard drive and reinstall windows because it wouldn't start even in the first place.  Everything works fine now, but.  Thanks for the help.  If the problem happens again, I know where to go for help!

• Effect secondary theme of Windows Aero

  Hello

  I can see tear of Windows Aero theme to disable. The tear went once I enabled the Aero.

  I heard that Windows Aero consumes GPU resources and resource memory, it will also slow down the system.

  I just want to check what is the side effect of Windows Aero theme, such as what is activation of the advantages and disadvantages?

  Thanks in advance for your answer!

  Hello

  Also known as Aero Glass, aero theme is a set of interface guidelines and design that were introduced by the Windows operating system. Changes affected many Aero interface to interface elements of Windows, including the establishment of a new look, as well as changes in the guidelines reflecting the appearance, layout and the phrasing and tone of the instructions and any other text in applications.

  Disabling Aero can improve performance because the dwm.exe (Desktop Windows Manager) takes 28-58000 memory usage k. When we disable Aero IE back to classic mode, you'll find a difference in performance. Not huge if! Because it releases 58K of your storage space. And the animation that is disabled when disable us Aero will have an impact in the Menus load faster.

• Windows 7 - themes and colors

  I just wanted a simple windows basic theme (without the effects special aero) using the Windows 7 basic theme.  However, I don't really like the colors of pale blue windows, and I would also prefer to have a different color, or shadow, since the inactive windows active window.

  Can I change the colors of theme, if I select a Windows aero theme, or if I select the Windows Classic theme.  However it does not seem possible to change colors using the non-aero, Windows basic theme.

  Am I missing a setting here?  Find it me hard to believe that there is no provision to change the colors of the window in the basic theme.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Defects of appearance and personalization,

• Windows Aero became invalid after installation of my HP printer, it has disappeared from the list of themes.

  Hello, I use Windows Vista Home Premium and since I bought my laptop Windows Aero worked fine on it. However, recently I installed the HP printer software on my laptop and after I finished I opened a Web page explore. When I did that an error has occurred, which I don't remember right now but I'm sure it had to do with the installation of the printer, because it was the first time I came across him and it contained the letter HP. I pressed OK and then the theme is back from Windows Aero to Windows Vista Basic and now I'm stuck here without the possibility of return to Aero. I've been looking around and try different solutions, but nothing worked again. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

  Hello

  With the display card drivers button to complete an install/uninstall/reinstall is to restart the computer. There is no directive specific beyond what you've already done (remove via the control Panael/programs and Freatures). You just need to restart normally to clear the system before performing the next step.

• Windows 7: Theme and Aero questions

  original title: duty 7 acclimitizing of the extreme difficulty of XP. None of the online instructions seem to resemble what I do experience or the other.

  I don't know why this is, but none of the instructions related to windows 7 seem to resemble what I see on the screen. My biggest hang up right now is the 'theme' of windows 7 which, in theory, can change to the classic version of windows - only "customization" routines described on several sites, including microsoft seems to apply.

  so, how can we get the classic them anyway?

  and how to recover the function of the taskbar where rolling on all open programs get it a preview of the window? He disappeared, and I don't see the option to bring him back.

  and say that I wanted to see the control panel in "classic" mode, how do I do this?

  I'm so lost...

  Yes, I know where is the persolization window, but clicking on a classical theme of windows gives me different colors but exactly the same confusing features. I don't really see a huge difference. I'm looking for is the menus gray neutral without the many contours, lines, shadows and transparencies that I see when I click on a "classic" theme Basically, I want it looks like XP - which he did not.

  Even when I use a "aero" theme I always get only the text when I rollover an item in the taskbar.

  really, this shouldn't be so hard, and I'm beginning to wonder if there is something wrong with my computer itself. Windows 7 came preloaded with my new HP laptop

  Hello

  If you have an Aero theme enabled, you should definitely see a thumbnail popup for a program that has files or open Web sites. You can ask HP support about it. You can also run the Aero troubleshooter.

  Open the Aero Troubleshooter by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel.

  In the search box, type Troubleshooting, click Troubleshootingand then, under appearance and personalization, click display Aero desktop effects.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  In the window that appears, select Advanced link at the bottom of the window and place a check in the option apply repairs automatically .

  Click the Next button.

  If the convenience store doesn't find any problems, select the Explore additional options .

  As to make Windows 7 looks exactly like XP, it will be difficult to do because so many components have been changed, first in Vista and then even more in Windows 7.

  If you use the classic theme, you can go to customize and click the color at the bottom of the window. This will display the dialog box options display old style that you can use to change the colors on many elements, such as Menus, message boxes, etc.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you for using Windows 7

• Windows 7 Aero theme lost during the upgrade to IE11

  I lost the Aero theme when I upgraded from IE9 to IE11 and the update installed some Windows updates.  I've seen other reports, but nothing has worked.  I tried to uninstall KB2670838, but Aero is not returned.

  I need help to restore Aero.    The Aero Troubleshooter have not set, no problem, so who needs some attention.

  Update: I uninstalled the update of IE, no Aero.  I uninstalled the updates of windows, one at a time. still no Aero?  And the resolution of problems Aero said that everything goes well for Aero?

  Thank you

  Doug

  I got it fixed!

  Service of themes has been disabled!  Now why in the world an update would disable themes, and, if this is a necessary service for Aero, Aero store not that find and correct?

  Come on Microsoft, you have the resources, it's a lousy job!

  So Ashish, please add to your canned response, to check all the services necessary to support Aero.  I have checked a few previous attempts, but did not know that the themes was a necessary service.

  Hope this helps others with the same question, surely you won't get any help from Redmond.
