In Windows XP, right-click the desktop and in the displayed Properties window, you can use the "Save as" command to save the current desktop theme information, including the font size, wallpaper, and screen saver.
In addition, you can click the Browse command under the "topic" drop-down list box to open and import the saved desktop topic file, so as to share the desktop topic with others.


Unfortunately, this function is not provided in the "Display Properties" window in Windows 2000. However, when I accidentally searched the Windows 2000 installation folder with theme as the keyword, I found a themes.exe file found in C: winntsystem32. after double-clicking it, I found a window like Windows XP selecting a topic!

I did some research on it like I found the new world. I found that we can use this program to save and open the import of the current desktop topic in Windows XP! To save the topic, click "Save as". to import the topic to the hard disk, click the "topic" drop-down list box and select "others.

In addition, this program allows us to preview the screen saver, mouse pointer, and system-defined sound in the current desktop topic in real time, at the same time, we can also choose to apply the selected settings on Windows in the currently opened topic, includes screen saver, sound event, mouse pointer, desktop wallpaper, icon, color, font name and style, and font and window size, this option gives us a lot of potential.

For example, if we only select the check box before the screen saver, sound event, and mouse pointer, and press the "application" or "OK" button, the program only applies the settings of the screen saver, sound events, and mouse pointer in the currently opened topic to the current Windows.

It is worth mentioning that the program also provides a "monthly rotation topic" option. After this check box is selected, A window will pop up asking you to enter the user name and password for running the "scheduled task". Enter the user name (Administrator) and password for system management, and click "OK, in Windows, the "theme" drop-down list box is opened every month or the existing theme is automatically changed, so that you can have a good mood in the month and month!

So far, we feel satisfied with the theme switching program in Windows 2000. But don't worry! In another experiment, I saved the current theme file in Windows 2000 as a. theme file by clicking the "Save as" button.

Switch to Windows XP, and click the "option in the drop-down list box" to open the theme file saved in Windows 2000. It is found that Windows XP will immediately become what we look like in Windows 2000!

Similarly, I saved the Windows XP topic through the "Save as" button and found that the program in Windows 2000 can also be imported. At this point, we can say that with these theme sharing, we can truly achieve theme sharing between Windows 2000 and Windows XP!

Of course, smart readers have already realized that we can do the following two things through the desktop theme program in Windows 2000:

(1) You can download more theme themes from the Internet and load them to Windows 2000 to make Windows 2000 more colorful;

(2) You can back up the current theme of Windows 2000 for reinstallation.
 
Resume the operating system or share your subject with others. Of course, to achieve the above purpose in Windows XP, you only need to use the "tour" and "Save as" commands in the "topic" drop-down list box.
