@ap: Hit Win Key + R, type “services.msc” and scroll down until you see Themes on the list. The status should be started and the startup type should be automatic.

@Jason: Thanks! I forgot that I had disabled “Themes” in the Services console. I had already patched, but since “Themes” were disabled, I couldn’t switch. Started/Enabled the service and everything looks great.
