Microsoft’spage for downloading free wallpapers and themesis about to take an early retirement.
But a new message at the top of that page points people to the Microsoft Store instead.

The themes section of the Microsoft Store lacks categories and is instead organized alphabetically.
“This page containing links to download Windows themes is now obsolete and will be retired soon.
We recommend downloading the latest themes directly from the Microsoft Store for the best experience,” says Microsoft.
Luckily, fan-favorites like"Dogs of Winter"are in the Microsoft Store.

Cat lovers also have several options featuring furry friends.
But this move seems to have been made in an effort to push people to the Microsoft Store.
In contrast, the themes section of the Microsoft Store lacks categories.

There isn’t any clear indication why those themes are different than the rest that are simply sorted alphabetically.
