The environment used the [[Windows Classic]] theme up to version 3.0 (based on [[Windows 7]]), as it didn't include support for [[Visual style|visual styles]], although it did at first include some elements such as the newer Aero cursors. The theme service was introduced in WinPE 4.0 (based on [[Windows 8]]) together with the [[Windows Aero]] theme, although it falls back to [[Windows Basic]] window frames due to [[Desktop Window Manager]] not being included. The theme is partially broken since [[Windows 10]] and uses the Segoe UI Italic font for the entire user interface, as well as falls back to the original pre-Vista cursors.

The theme service was introduced in WinPE 4.0 (based on [[Windows 8]]) together with the [[Windows Aero]] theme, although it falls back to [[Windows Basic]] window frames due to [[Desktop Window Manager]] not being included. Parts of the Aero theme resources were since removed from the Preinstallation Environment as of [[Windows 10 (original release)|the original Windows 10 release]], leaving behind a variant where the font falls back to Segoe UI Italic in most visual aspects (except the [[Windows Setup|setup application]], which has its own font file bundled) and the cursor scheme reverted to the original pre-Vista variation.
