Some folks, including me, followed a performance tweak and were stuck with the Windows 7 toolbar being a white (Windows Classic). When I boot the computer, I get a notification stating that windows failed to communicate with the windows desktop services.ĭouble check the Windows 7 "Themes" Service is running. What can I do?
