 * You need to talk to your theme authors about this, as we don’t support commercial
   themes.

 * Okay I deleted the commercial theme and i reinstalled WordPress over again, it
   automatically picked the default theme, after that i changed the theme to another
   free theme and it displayed the SAME error, and now i cant even USE A THEME… 
   So I Would Be Thankful If You Could Even Try To help Me. Thanks

 * I am experiencing the same issue. I uploaded the WooCommerce Storefront theme
   successfully, but after attempting to activate it, I received the same errors
   you posted. It has now defaulted to a blank theme and I cannot activate any other
   theme without the same errors.

   I understand your frustrations about me asking for you to create new threads.
   From experience I know that debugging other people’s problems can derail the 
   thread for the person who opened the thread.
 * Please do create your own threads. Once they’re created you can link them in 
   this thread so that everyone can see the support given if it turns out to be 
   the same issue.

   Try deactivating the MOJO Marketplace plugin.
 * I found the solution [here](https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/cant-use-any-theme?replies=10)
   and tested it. Now my themes work.

 * I have this EXACT same issue since yesterday. I cant change or choose any theme,
   It always says “The active theme is broken. Reverting to the default theme.
    
   ERROR: Stylesheet is missing.”. Right now the theme I have is blank, nothing 
   works.

 * If I deactivate Mojo Marketplace, I get 500 internal server error?? I tried that
   several times yesterday.

    I was getting
   the 500 internal server errors yesterday before I reinstalled WordPress. I’m 
   in the process of setting up a new site, so deleting the installion and reinstalling
   was a luxury I have, but I don’t know if that is an option for you.

 * [@tehothealkaloid](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tehothealkaloid/), Try
   deactivating ALL of your plugins to explore whether any could be responsible.

 * Why would you have “Mojo Marketplace” in the first place? That’s not part of 
   WordPress.
 * Start over with a fresh vanilla install. Don’t have any addon’s. Sound like you’re
   making this hard on yourself to start with.
