I have a Windows 2008 R2 server which I try to change its theme to Windows-7 a-like by the following procedure: http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/themes/

I have the following problem: "Themes" service seems to be running. However, when I try to choose another theme, I get an error message that says this service is not running.

Please advice.

Thank you

If you're connecting via RDP: You'll have to configure both your RDP client and the Server to allow themes over RDP. On the client it's as easy as Options->Experience->All Checked. For the sever search "RDP Enable Themes" or check out these directions. Note: Aero Glass over the Internet is going to lag a bit (or a lot, depending on your connection).
