A Christmassy theme for Windows 7

If you're looking for a festive theme for your Windows 7 PC this Christmas, then look no further than Microsoft's Decking the Halls theme.

What you get

This theme comes with 12 beautiful Christmas wallpapers that would actually be suitable for any wintry festivities. As Decking the Halls theme is an official Microsoft theme, the photography and quality is as high as you would expect, and the images tone perfectly with the pre-selected window color, Frost.

What you don't get

Unfortunately, Decking the Halls theme just comes short of being a truly inclusive theme, because it doesn't feature any special Christmas music or screensaver. When you open the personalization options, you'll see that both a sound setting and screensaver have been chosen, but these are default ones, and not specifically for the Christmas season.

So how do you install it?

As we said, being an official theme pack, Decking the Halls theme makes installation really easy. Simply download the file and double-click. As soon as you do, your Personalization options will pop up with Decking the Halls theme already installed. It's that simple. To uninstall, right click and choose "delete this theme".

Microsoft has a number of gorgeous seasonal themes, but most are let down by a lack of screensaver and sounds. If you're looking for something more complete, try this Christmas theme instead.

Decking the Halls theme is a lovely festive - but elegant - theme for your Windows 7 computer.
