“And if you like Win XP a few clicks in the system manager and you can load up an XP theme for it. :)”

I found it in Linux Mint 20.1 Ulyssa! Here is how I got to it:

Menu button (bottom left corner) >>
Preferences >>
System Settings >>
Themes (in the Appearance group) >>
Add/Remove tab (then search “xp”)>

Yep, you can get MAC and Win 10 themes also if you like. Wish the had a Win 7 theme, Don’t know why not. The Mint Cinnamon is already almost Win 7, be cool to have all the icons, buttons and such as Win 7.

In my cinnamon just go to themes and refresh it. It will give you a list with thumbnails of what is available. If you click it to highlight it and hit the info button at the bottom it will open your browser and go to an online page with a full screen example. Just download it and it will go into your theme options folder to use again if you ever decide to. :)

Sorry... You are right “Add/remove” then it gives you the list to scroll down through. :)
