• Once your PC recognizes your card a new drive will appear under ‘My Computer’. Open it, and browse to private, 10207114, import.
• Browse through each of the folders in this directory to find the theme you would like to remove. The MBM, MIF, and SKN files in each folder should each be named after the theme – so if you want to remove a theme called “MyTheme”, look for “MyTheme.mbm” etc.
