FP2000: Unable to Delete, Modify, or Use a Custom Theme (219128)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FrontPage 2000
This article was previously published under Q219128

SYMPTOMS

If you delete the user defined styles that comprise the text styles for a theme, the theme will not function correctly. The same symptoms can be generated by corrupted custom themes.

CAUSE

FrontPage relies on having the entire theme be complete and accurate for proper functionality.

RESOLUTION

To remove an unusable theme, you must delete the folder that contains the theme information. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, and click Windows Explorer.
  2. In Windows Explorer, delete the folder with the same name as your custom theme. By default, these themes are stored in the following location:

    C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Themes

    For example, if the theme was named MyTheme, delete the following folder:

    C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Themes\MyTheme
  3. Restart FrontPage, and the theme will no longer be listed.
