The official Ubuntu 11.10 version has been released. many people think that Ubuntu is not as elegant and beautiful as Windows 7.

Today we will show you how to convert Ubuntu to Windows 7.

Of course, this will not be the same, but the two are close enough. at first glance, many people will think that this is Windows 7. Continue reading and see how to do it.
First enter some commands, just open the terminal window and enter the following content:



This will download a script file for later use. this file informs the computer of the files to be downloaded to complete the installation of the Win7 theme package. Once the installation is complete, a window will pop up to inform you that the installation is about to begin. just click OK.



Another window will pop up, asking if you want to continue. you can also answer yes for this window. Then begin to download and install the theme. Depending on your Internet speed, it may take some time. After that, a window similar to the following will be displayed:



Click OK, return to the terminal, and enter:


This command will install the Win7 theme, and your computer will immediately convert to the Windows style. Wait a few seconds and you will see a window asking you to log out. then, log out and log on again. here is what you will see:


Now your Ubuntu and Windows seem almost the same. Congratulations! Now you have WinBuntu! You can even right-click the Start button and select "properties" to customize the Start menu.
If necessary, you can install an IE-style topic for Firefox. You can also use Windows 7 wallpaper on the desktop, which gives you a full sense of Windows 7. The download link is at the end of this article.
During the Windows 7 theme script installation, the previous Gnome settings are backed up and saved in your home directory. if you get tired of the theme, you can uninstall it, roll back to the previous Gnome status. The only disadvantage is that there is no automatic uninstall program.
Unmount is not difficult. Open your home directory, and you will have a file named “win7-uninstall.tar.gz. open it in your file manager. you will find your home directory and double-click it. then you will see your username and double-click it again. There should be a ". gconf" file, which will be unlocked to your home directory.


Log out and log on again. Your theme has returned to the normal Gnome, as if nothing had happened. It's cool, isn't it?
In some cases, when you try to uninstall a theme, the theme may not be uninstalled cleanly, leaving some Windows 7 icons or desktop wallpaper. In these cases, you must manually delete a file to remove the topic, but you don't have to worry about it. this is easier than you think. Open a terminal window, enter the following command, and then press Enter.


Note: this will restore your Gnome appearance settings to the default situation when Ubuntu is installed for the first time.
