Microsoft is preparing to shut down its official web page for downloading themes and wallpapers for Windows 10 and Windows 11. The company considers this resource obsolete but has not specified the exact closure date.
Microsoft’s Recommendation for Users
Instead of the old web page, Microsoft advises users to download themes directly from the Microsoft Store. “This page containing links to download Windows themes is obsolete and will be closed soon. We recommend downloading the latest themes directly from the Microsoft Store,” the company stated.
Differences Between the Old and New Platforms
Unlike the previous web page, where themes were categorized into sections like animals and nature, the Microsoft Store does not currently offer such classification, notes NIX Solutions. This may make it harder for users to find suitable options. However, improvements could be made over time, making it easier to search for themes and wallpapers in the Microsoft Store. We’ll keep you updated on any changes.
