Maverick Theme

Even though Windows it by far the most popular operating system nowadays, there are numerous users who are not entirely satisfied with its looks and who are constantly in search of something different. Some of these users might appreciate Maverick Theme which is especially created for Windows 8 and 8.1 computers.

It needs to be mentioned from the beginning that one first needs to install Uxtheme that would allow them to install third-party visual styles on their computer. After restarting the PC, one also needs to make sure they copy the theme folder to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes.

Once Maverick Theme is installed, the default wallpaper will be replaced with a custom one, with an abstract design and bright colors meant add a touch of tranquility and serenity to your PC.

The taskbar color and style will also be modified to resemble the one from Ubuntu 13.10, codename Saucy Salamander, launched in October 2013.

As opposed to other themes, Maverick Theme can also modify the look of the mouse pointers and make them match the overall appearance of the PC. The changed ones might take some time getting used to, but users who are accustomed to experimenting with their computer should not encounter any difficulty.

When users want to remove Maverick Theme, they can simply install a new one and activate it, but they also need to remember to remove the folder they had previously copied to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes.

Maverick Theme can provide a refreshing change for all those who like the look of Ubuntu yet do not want to give up the familiarity of their Windows environment.
