Today, I will talk to you about the skills of transforming Ubuntu into Windows 7, which may not be well understood by many people. in order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following contents for you. I hope you can get something according to this article.

The official version of Ubuntu 11.10 has been released, and many people think that Ubuntu is not as refined and beautiful as Windows 7. Ubuntu actually has a pretty good desktop theme system, visual effects and eye-pleasing programs, but you may still like the exquisite, transparent and start menu of Windows 7 Aero. Today we will show you how to transform Ubuntu into Windows 7.

Of course, it won't be exactly the same, but the two are so close that at first glance, many people will think this is Windows 7. Keep reading and see what to do.

Let's enter some commands first, just open the terminal window and enter the following:

This downloads a script file that tells the computer which files to download to complete the installation of the Win7 theme package for later use. Once finished, a window will pop up to tell you that the installation is about to begin, just click OK.

Another window will pop up, asking if you want to continue, and just answer yes to that window. The terminal then starts downloading and installing the theme. Depending on the speed of your Internet, it may take some time. After that, a window similar to the following is displayed:

Click OK, then return to the terminal and enter:

This command will install the Win7 theme and your computer will immediately switch to Windows style. Wait a few seconds, you will see a window asking you to log out, then log out and log back in, here's what you'll see:

Now your Ubuntu and Windows look almost the same. Congratulations! Now you have WinBuntu! You can even right-click the start button and select Properties to customize the start menu.

If necessary, you can install IE-style themes for Firefox. You can also use Windows 7 wallpaper on your desktop, which will give you a complete Windows 7 feel. The download link is at the end of this article.

In the Win 7 theme script installation, the previous Gnome settings are backed up and saved in your home directory, so that if you are tired of the theme, you can uninstall it and roll back to the previous Gnome state. The disadvantage of * * is that there is no automatic uninstall program.

It is not difficult to uninstall. Open your home directory, there will be a file called "win7-uninstall.tar.gz", open it with your file manager, you will find your home directory, then double-click it, you will see your user name, double-click it again. There should be a ".gconf" file that unlocks it to your home directory.

Log out and log in again, and that's fine. Your theme goes back to normal Gnome, as if nothing had happened. It's cool, isn't it?

In some cases, you may not uninstall the theme cleanly when you try to uninstall it, leaving behind some Windows 7 icons or desktop wallpaper. In these cases, you have to delete the file manually to remove the theme, but don't worry, it's easier than you think. Just open a terminal window and enter the following command, and then click enter.

Note: this will restore your Gnome appearance settings to the default when you install Ubuntu for the first time.
