no .reg needed: disable aero features Windows 7 Premium version
>> Friday, May 14, 2010
Windows 7 premium uses aero theme by default so disable the aero theme by selecting its basic theme in Personalize
right-hand mouse: right-click (left-hand mouse: left-click), click on Personalize (US English. UK English Personalise), look at the top "change visuals and sounds on your computer", click on the phrase "Windows7 basic", exit out. i'm not sure if u need to restart to let it take effect but i prefer to restart
AND IT WORKS
you can change the desktop background from any source - it doesn't switch to aero theme at all!!!
in its basic theme, if you're working on more than one window any MS Office application, you want to change windows within MS Office you'll see the windows are "stacked" with words and no "pictures" that's ok (again, that's because of its basic theme). i find the "stacks" less time consuming too - especially when you're rushing for time and every nanosecond counts!
