    Although Windows 10 includes many ways to personalize your experience, the quickest way to change the look and feel is to use a theme. A theme is just a package that can contain one or more background images, color accents, and sounds, and they're quickly acquirable from the Microsoft Store. To get and apply a new theme on Windows 10, do the following: (Windows Central, n.d.)

    1. Open Settings.
    2. Click on Personalization.
    3. Click on Themes.
    4. Click the Get more themes in the Store link.
    5. In the Microsoft Store, pick the theme you want, and click the “Get” button.
    6. Click the Launch button to go back to the Themes settings.
    7. Click the newly added theme to apply it.
