The visual style of the Windows 7 operating system comes from the Aero interface, which was first used in Windows Vista. Users are very negative about the design of Vista. In every possible way they refused it in favor of the older XP or waited for the release of a new axis. The Seven took all the best from traditional Windows. Millions of people around the world are used to it. In Windows 7 added special effects from "Vista".
If you do not want visual gadgets to take away the performance of your computer, then you need to figure out how to enable the simplified style of Windows 7.
What are the styles of design
Initially, the system provides a set of four topics:
- Windows Aero
- classic
- simplified style;
- high contrast theme.
Windows Aero uses all the visual effects of the style, consuming the RAM of the device. The theme provides sets of high-quality pictures that you can set with your desktop background.
When choosing a classic theme, the controls and windows will more closely resemble the interface of the Windows 2000 operating system.
The simplified style assumes that the appearance of the interface will practically not differ from Windows Aero, but at the same time all visual effects will be disabled. A high contrast theme is popular with people with vision problems.
Let's take a closer look at how to enable the simplified style of Windows 7. There are two ways to do this:
- through the control panel;
- from the desktop personalization menu.
Activate the simplified style in the control panel
To enable the simplified style of Windows 7, you must follow these instructions:
- From the "Start" menu, go to the "Control Panel".
- Go to the tab "System and Security".
- Select the item responsible for performance.
- Configure the settings in the simplified mode.
Activate simplified style with personalization
It’s much easier for the user to enable a simplified theme through the desktop personalization menu. To do this, you do not need to delve into the computer control panel, although this section is also in it, but it will be enough to perform the following steps:
- right-click on an empty spot on the screen;
- select the item "Personalization" in the drop-down list;
- turn on the interface with a simplified style.
In addition to the four available interface modes in the operating system, Seven offers users to download ready-made themes from the Internet or create their own based on existing ones. When creating your own style of the operating system, you can customize the interface elements and desktop background.
