Because of the freeware nature of this package, it had also been available on software download websites, such as Softpedia at one time. On April 7, 2005, Microsoft New Zealand had made the Royale theme and the wallpapers for the New Zealand theme available for download for all editions of XP through Windows Genuine Advantage on its website but no longer exists in 2019. Royale was originally made available in December 2004. It presents a relucent, vivid and faux-reflective color scheme with intense blue and green colors. It is accompanied by a new wallpaper (inspired by Windows XP Bliss).

Royale (also known as Media Center style and Energy Blue) was originally designed for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, and was ported to Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005. The style was removed from Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8, however, it still exists internally for backward compatibility purposes. Other schemes appeared in the previous versions of Windows. A slightly darker variant of the Standard scheme, called 'Windows Classic', was the default color scheme of Windows 98 (albeit with a dark blue desktop background instead of green, much like the pre-release versions of Windows 2000) and appeared on Windows Vista but not Windows 7.

'Windows Standard' scheme was the default color scheme of Windows ME and Windows 2000 and appeared on Windows Vista and Windows 7 although in the latter, it was renamed 'Windows Classic'. Four of them are optimized for the visually impaired. Windows XP includes 22 preset color schemes for the classic style. It is less CPU-intensive and offers better performance, due to which it is also used by default on Windows Server 2003 through 2008 R2.Д¬ompared to other visual styles, it supports greater color and font customization options. Classic style widgets are also used for applications that are not theming-aware even though theming is enabled. It is used when the theme service is disabled and in certain other scenarios, such as Win32 console windows or booting the system in Safe mode. Officially titled 'Windows Classic style', this is the built-in look and feel that was also used in previous versions of Windows. Critics who did not like the theme characterized it as a ' Fisher-Price interface'.

Officially known as 'Windows XP style', it is available in three color schemes: blue (default), olive green, and silver.

'Luna' ( the Moon in Latin and various other languages) is the codename for the default visual style of Windows XP. Nevertheless, the API remained heavily underdocumented. The visual styles API was substantially expanded in Windows Vista and later. Visual styles are compatible with all Windows XP editions except Starter Edition.Д¬ompared to previous versions of Windows, the new styles have a greater emphasis on the graphical appeal of the operating system, using saturated colors and bitmaps throughout the interface, with rounded corners for windows. Third parties have also released visual styles, though these require modification of core Windows components to work. In addition to the preinstalled visual styles, Microsoft has released additional ones for download.

By default, 'Luna' is preinstalled on Windows XP Home and Professional editions, 'Royale' is preinstalled on Windows XP Media Center Edition and 'Embedded' is preinstalled on Windows Embedded Standard 2009 and Windows Embedded POSReady 2009. Since Windows XP, themes include the choice of visual styles as well. 'Luna', 'Royale', 'Zune', and 'Embedded' are codenames of the official visual styles designed for Windows XP by Microsoft. Windows XP visual styles are customizations of the graphical user interface of Windows XP.
