Since these hidden themes are installed along with your Windows 7 installation you can unlock/unhide these hidden Windows 7 Themes for regional contries.

If you want to enable these hidden themes, do the following:

  • First Show hidden files, folders, or drives and show the protected operating system files. [Go to Explorer -> Tools -> Folder options and select View tab]

  • Now navigate to C:\WindowsGlobalization\MCT. You will see the 5 theme folders, one each for Australia, Canada, Great Britain, USA & South Africa.
