I agree. If you keep reading the feedback, and wanting to include every single thing that people wants it will take forever.

Leave the aero/whatever portion of it for a TP5.0 or 4.1, whatever suits you.

But release what's already done. It's been ages and I can't wait! :)

Hi ! everyone !!!

i respect the great job that Windows X always do.

people is never happy with what they have, always want more, so do it at your satisfaction, we always apreciate your job.

Totally agree with everyone here on this issue. The slate thing was fun and with everyones attempts at it we have slate visual styles and boot screens and the whole nine yards to make XP look exactly like the current longhorn build. That's a lot of hard work in itself, don't over-do it though trying to make another one based on half decent screenshots of something thats going to change time and time again.. by the time you finish getting it how it looked in the screenshots there will be a new leak or new pictures that come out with a whole new look and you'll have to start all over.. Knowing from first hand experience how time consuming skinning is, personally I don't think it's worth the time.. If its something you just wanna do out of fun then by all means have at it and do what ya want, just don't do it because ya feel you're forced to because everyone is saying "I want it".. the same thing happened with Plex and look where thats at now LOL :)

That is done with the shellstyle.dll but the one you are looking for has a resizing bug in it and I think WindowsX has pulled that one untill it is fixed. The horizontal one doesn't lock down so when you try to double click on an icon you may not get the one you want because they move around.

    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.

      It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171

      Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103.

    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      By RaidenX · Posted

      Hi. As the title suggests, I can't access the forum on my phone. I'm using Edge on Android and when I try to navigate to the forum I get a "we value your privacy" popup and none of the buttons are clickable. It effectively stonewalls me from reading any forum content.

      Honestly you're not wrong about AdGuard. Neowin frequently has lifetime license discounts for them and that's how I got my cheap family license a few years ago to run it on all my devices.
