Tripredacus Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I might be "un-solving" this one. Is there a way to choose a background COLOR instead of a picture? For example, I can select to use the Windows Classic theme, but the background color is azure. What if I wanted that to be black instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxXPsoft Posted September 11, 2010 Author Share Posted September 11, 2010 don't see it in the waik or unattend.chm. only WindowColor specifies the color of the window glass and color effectsprobably do it with reg in firstlogoncommands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 Did not know you could select a already installed theme, thought it only worked to create oem.theme...will have to run some testsBTW would be nice if one could add more than one bg to the theme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikka Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) No, this<ThemeName>C:\Windows\resources\Themes\landscapes.theme</ThemeName>is wrong and results in an oem theme named C:\Windows\resources\Themes\landscapes.theme, not the selected one that's already there.<DesktopBackground>%WINDIR%\web\wallpaper\Landscapes\img7.jpg</DesktopBackground>Well, it still gives me an additional oem theme that doesn't stick to the original theme's settings (e.g. no sounds).Will keep on testing, though.Any more ideas?Edit:Okay, for the sake of completeness, I didn't verify this with Microsoft's landscapes theme, but with an oem theme which worked out of the box. That way an additional theme entry was created (a right click offered me to remove the oem theme) instead of selecting the existing one.

Tripredacus Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Also of note, this does not work, and you end up with the default Aero theme:<ThemeName>C:\Windows\resources\Ease of Access Themes\classic.theme</ThemeName>However, the only way to get this theme after install is to use this:<DefaultThemesOff>true</DefaultThemesOff>I haven't found a way to actually get one of the pre-installed themes to work, although in this case, using the second setting is fine for me.
