    To ‘enhance my sites security’, I removed all the themes I didn’t use except two. Now HealthCheck is coming up with an error saying that my site doesn’t have a default theme set? How do I fix this?

    I already have a theme set for my website, so what is the ‘default’ theme?

    One of the twenty* themes. For 5.x, that’s twentynineteen. You should have a default theme so if yours gets borked, you can delete it. WP will fall back to the default, then you can do what you need to do to fix things.

    When it’s needed, WP checks for a fallback theme, starting with the most recent default theme and going backwards to Twenty Ten and then WordPress Default and WordPress Classic.
    The list is in wp-includes/class-wp-theme.php.
