How do I modify the registry to ensure I retain the Windows Classic

appearance which I want.



Something has happened in recent times and, when I reboot, Windows opens

using a 'Modified Theme' with the fuzzy rounded Taskbar that I detest.



Can I delete files that hold 'Theme' information - and, if so, where do I

find them / what is their extension.

167. Force Classic Start Menu - Undo

187. Restore Luna Theme - Restore Classic Theme



She (Kelly) also has other tweaks that might help.

Elmo,



Thank you for your advice. The links you gave did not work as expected but I

googled: "Classic Start Menu - Force Use" and found the registry entry I

needed.
