Microsoft’s latest version of its operating system, Windows 8, has more personalization options than any predecessor. Backgrounds, themes, colors, start screen, apps, picture passwords and more can all be customized.

Click Change the Theme to enter the control panel’s Appearance & Personalization area. Then choose a theme — for example, click on the Earth default theme and then the Desktop Background chooser.
