Winaero Theme Switcher

Description

Winaero Theme Switcher is an application which allows you to change a Windows theme from the command line. Although It has GUI, it is primarily intended to be used with the command prompt or in a batch file where you want to automate the applying of a custom theme.
The syntax is as follows:
ThemeSwitcher.exe path_to_file.theme
For example, to apply the Windows 8's "Earth" theme, you can run the following command:
themeswitcher.exe c:\Windows\Resources\Themes\theme1.theme

However, if theme is located in one of the following folders:
  • C:\Windows\Resources\Themes

  • C:\Windows\Resources\Easy of Access Themes

  • C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Themes


then you need not specify the full path to the theme file or even its extension, just specify the file name. So, command line can be as follows:
themeswitcher.exe theme1

According to user request, I added new option:
[CODE]themeswitcher.exe start[/CODE]
It changes Windows theme to a random theme from themes you have installed.
You can put shortcut to your Startup folder and every time you start your Windows it will have new theme.
