Office 2013 themes missing

Anonymous

I now have a total of only 9 themes in Office 2013. In the past there were dozens. I teach a class on Microsoft Office and when students are asked to use a certain theme, they aren't finding them. What happened?

This is a better option:

I have put a copy of the themes from various versions of Office (2007, 2010, 2013) in folders under the following folder of my One Drive

If you download the theme that you want and save it in the

C:\Users[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes

folder, it should appear as a Custom Theme in the Themes dropdown.

Note that you can't open theme files directly in Word (that is, not via File | Open). You have to add them to the Document Themes folder in your user profile (see Doug's reply) and then select a theme via the ribbon. If this is what you are doing, please explain which particular theme you are having problems with.

Hate to say this but it doesn't work on my new computer with windows 8.1.

It says the file is corrupted.

UGH
