I stole these un/installation instructions from Pickysaurus. If they're good, thank him. If not, blame me. :)
Installation
Close Vortex before installing.
Open up "AppData\Roaming\Vortex\Themes".
Note: If you used Shared mode under Settings -> Vortex your themes folder will be C:\ProgramData\vortex\themes
Extract the archive including the "bettercompact/" folder itself into this directory.
Open Vortex and navigate to Settings -> Themes and select the "bettercompact" theme.
Uninstallation
Ensure you change to a different theme than the one you wish to remove.
