Anybody know how I can get XP to look like XP! When I
right click on the desktop and choose properties then the
Appearance tab I just have the option for Windows classic.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers Bill

R click on screen, you'll be on Themes tab. Just below it
you'll see "Themes" and options. Click on that and pick
Windows XP...although why you'd want it, I'll never know.
Give me the classic anytime.

also, go to the appearance tab and look for "windows &
buttons" and pick XP.

Hi Bill,

Why does Windows XP Style change to Windows Classic Style?
