Post subject:  Windows 7 - Change the set of accepted regional themes
1. Grab your desired MCT-[ISO country code here] folder from the Windows 7 image in another language (e.g. MCT-JP from the Japanese installation image).
2. Copy the folder to
Code: Select all
%windir%\Globalization\MCT
in your current Windows 7 installation. Here I will be using Windows 7 installed from the vanilla US English image.
3. Open regedit and navigate to
Code: Select all
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MCT
.
4. Create a new key with the exact same name as your MCT folder (e.g. MCT-JP).
5. In the MCT key you have created, create these values:
Value nameType of valueWhat does the value do
GeoIDDWORD (32-bit Value)Windows region to display the MCT. For a list of region IDs, please visit: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/intl/table-of-geographical-locations
LinkMulti-String ValueDefault regional bookmarks to be added to Internet Explorer (optional). These bookmarks are stored in
Code: Select all
%windir%\Globalization\MCT\MCT-[ISO country code]\Link
ThemeMulti-String ValueThe name of the theme file located in
Code: Select all
%windir%\Globalization\MCT\MCT-[ISO country code]\Theme
example:
Code: Select all
JP.theme
WallpaperMulti-String ValueThe name of the image files located in
Code: Select all
%windir%\Globalization\MCT\MCT-[ISO country code]\Wallpaper
in a list (e.g. JP-wp1.jpg to JP-wp6.jpg). List separated by pressing Enter.
6. Close all the Personalization Control Panel windows, if any.
7. Open intl.cpl (Region and Language), go to the Location tab, set the region to the one you registered the MCT for in previous steps (e.g., if you registered MCT-JP, set the region to Japan), and click Apply.
8. Now open the Personalization Control Panel, click on the new theme appears in the "Aero Themes" section. Click "Desktop Background" and then "Cancel", if the regional theme in the "Aero Themes" section remains selected, you have configured the theme and wallpaper set correctly.
