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 just want to apologize guys if you got me wrong, cause i was requesting to windows X, to mix both themes in another add-on theme, not especificaly in the TP 4.

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 :)

windowsx... this is a cracking good skin well done i have huge respect for such a great skinner :) ur an inspiration :)

anyway, i was gonna ask, since this looks like a good place to ask-

i have the pdc slate skin, and it looks great- i was wondering, how do i get the common tasks [in XP they show up on the left of the window] to show up at the top of the window? i've looked for ages and i can't figure it out....

can anyone help?

thanks in advance to anyone who can help me here :)

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.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      low latency mode is still bugged and causing bootup times slow to a crawl. To fix, you have to disable the feature with vivetool. Seems as though it's not rolled out to a lot of people yet since I've only been able to find only a handful of people that are having issues.

      I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.

      You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By +mram · Posted

      Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.

      Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
