Windows 7 allows the users to choose from a variety of themes by using the Themes feature. As we change a theme, the icons and mouse cursors modify accordingly. Some of us don’t like the icons and mouse cursors to modify as we change the theme. We want the icons and cursors of our choice to remain the same even in the new theme. It is possible to prevent themes from modifying icons and cursors in Windows 7. There is an easy way to prevent themes from modifying icons and cursors in Windows 7. Follow these simple steps in order to prevent themes from modifying icons and cursors in Windows 7:
Right-click anywhere on the desktop.
Click on “Change desktop icons” on the left-hand side of the window screen.
The Desktop Icon Settings dialog box will appear. Uncheck the box for “Allow themes to change desktop icons”.
Click on Apply.
Click on the Ok button to close this dialog box.
Many people don’t mind if the new theme changes the icons but they prefer the mouse cursors to remain the same. You can follow the same procedure with a few changes to prevent themes from changing the mouse pointers. Follow steps 1 and 2.
Simply click on the “Change mouse pointers” link from the Personalize window.
The Mouse Pointers dialog box will appear. Uncheck “Allow themes to change mouse pointers”.
Click on the OK button to close this dialog box.
