    This is also how to save your Theme.

    All Settings>>Personalization>>Themes

    Select a Theme & select Save

    Be sure to turn sync on & select Themes as mentioned in previous comment.

    If you copy & paste this into a Windows address bar and press enter, it will take you to the folder where the Themes are stored.

    %localappdata%\Microsoft*Windows**Themes*

    or

    C:\Users\*YOUR USER ACCOUNT NAME*\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Themes

    Go here

    Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization

    or

    Start Menu>>All Apps>>Personalization

    Right click on a Theme you have & select

    "Save Theme for Sharing"

    select where to save it & transfer it to storage to use later.

    Note: If you sign into your PC with Microsoft account.

    You can select to sync your settings in

    All Settings>>Accounts>>Sync your settings

    select Theme & others.

    Then when you install Windows on a new PC & sign in with M/A, within a short time, Microsoft will automatically apply those synced settings.
