Thanks for the link, I'll have to look at it. System Restore does not
go back far enough. The original Win7 themes are all missing or
over-written with ugly, hard-to-see, stuff. I've poked around enough
and I've got something that is usable without nausea. Black with dark
green outlines is not easy to see on a black background. I've gotten a
lot of the icons back now, they were all the same, with just different
titles. I wonder what use that was....

How far back does System Restore go? Is there an old enough set point
that removes the changes? Also, it sounds like the work of a little
program called Ultimate Windows Tweaker.

Tried that, but some things don't seem to go back to normal. It's
like someone heavily edited the registry. And what they put in was
this horrendous black and green scheme. Startup and shutdown screens
are changed also. Plus, the horrible green/black background was
apparently written over the standard Win7 background. Ugh!

Why don't you just log in as another user and everything should
start up as a brand new Windows 7 screen.

I'm looking at this system for a friend of mine which has Win7 on
it, but someone has heavily modified it. Start-up screen, theme,
fonts, standard icons, the whole lot. Since my friend 'can't find'
all the of the programs to reinstall, I'd like to try and get this
install back to original or close. Is there an easy way to get all
this stuff back to default? I can go in by hand and change a lot
of this stuff, but it'll be very time consuming.
Thanks...Steve
