We have reported earlier that Microsoft has the intention to ship Windows 7 with regional themes that make use of wallpapers and additional interface enhancements that are unique depending on the region Windows 7 has been sold. Currently the five zones Australia, Canada, Great Britain, United States and South Africa are known and it is very likely that additional zones will be added in the retail versions.

There is one interesting option to add all regional themes to Windows 7. The option works both in the 6956 and the 7000 build of the operating system. It is very likely that it can also be used in the retail versions of Windows 7.

To activate all regional themes in Windows 7 do the following:

  • Navigate to \Windows\Globalization\MCT\
  • The folder contains five folders that represent the five regions currently available in Windows 7
  • Open the themes folder in one of the folders and doubleclick on the xx.theme file to activate that theme.
  • Repeat the steps to add all five regional themes to Windows 7
