Hello. First thx so much. My OS version is Wind7 Home Premium. someone else on this list suggested changing the theme to classic following below steps. What do you mean by 'personalization' and what am I supposed to do please?
Change theme to classic: Press Windows key and focus should be in the Search box. Type: theme The search is updated as you type and press Enter on Change the theme. Change it to classic.
