in tutorial •  7 years ago 

Luckily, deleting a theme is fairly easy in Windows 10. In fact, Windows 10 offers more than two ways to delete installed themes or theme packs.

Following are the three ways to delete installed themes in Windows 10.

Method 1 of 3

Delete installed themes via Settings in Windows 10**

This method works only in Windows 10 Creators Update (15014 or later) or later versions of Windows 10. If you are on an earlier build of Windows 10, please refer to the directions in Method 2 and Method 3.
Step 1: Open Settings app. Click Personalization icon, and then click Themes to see all installed themes as well as default themes.

Step 2: To delete a theme, right-click on the theme tile, and then click Delete option.

Please note that you cannot delete the currently active theme. So, if you want to delete your currently active theme, you first need to apply another theme.

Also, the Settings app doesn’t allow you delete default themes.

Method 2 of 3

Delete installed themes via Control Panel in Windows 10

Step 1: Open the classic Control Panel by typing Control Panel in Start/taskbar search and then pressing Enter key.

Step 2: Change the View by to Small icons. Click Personalization to open Personalization window.


Step 3: Here, look for the theme which you want to delete. Right-click on the theme which you want to delete, and then click Delete theme option to remove the theme from your Windows 10 PC. That’s it!

Like the Settings app, the Personalization window also doesn’t allow you remove default Windows 10 themes.

Method 3 of 3

Delete themes via File Explorer in Windows 10

Step 1: Open Run command dialog by simultaneously pressing Windows logo and R keys.

Step 2: In the Run box, copy and paste the following path, and then press Enter key to open Themes directory.

%localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Themes

Step 3: Here, right-click on the installed theme that you want to delete and then click Delete option.
