  2. Double-click on Personalization
   

 

There is different categories under Personalization, they are as follows

  • Windows Color and Appearance - Fine tune the color and style of your windows.
  • Desktop Background - choose from available backgrounds or colors  or use one of your own pictures to decorate the desktop.
  • Screen Saver - Change your screen saver or adjust when it displays. A screen saver is a picture or animation that covers your screen and appears when your computer is idle for a set period of time.
  • Sounds - Change which sounds are heard when you do everything from getting e-mail to emptying your Recycle Bin.
  • Mouse Pointers - Pick a different mouse pointer. You can also change how the mouse pointer looks during such activities as clicking and selecting.
  • Theme - Change the theme. Themes can change a wide range of visual and auditory elements at one time including the appearance of menus, icons, backgrounds, screen savers, some computer sounds, and mouse pointers.
  • Display Settings - Adjust your monitor resolution, which changes the view so more or fewer items fit on the screen. You can also control monitor flicker (refresh rate).
