It's not same and I finished this theme (without new Aero resources) before KoL start Longhorn theming as under developed theme for long Longhorn Transformation Pack 7 roadmap. Check these and compare to any theme you think that's what I took from.

-Captionbar

-CaptionButton

-Toolbar

-Taskbar

And see original screenshot for proof. I ever asked KoL to use new Slate captionbar from this screenshot but he said he wanna keep it. Do you notice it now? If not, as you wish. Only quality user will sense the difference that normal user can't.

Maybe pic can make you guys understand it easier. Is there anything that look same? No. If you want to say mine looks similar to KoL's work anyway. Sure, I and KoL ported it from the same screenshots. I'll post this for the las time..."I started developing this theme about one week after I had got Athens screenshots. But I didn't release or show any progress because I want to make a surprise for Longhorn Transformation Pack 7. KoL started porting Longhorn theme so I need to show mine to prove that I didn't copy his work (Use search if you want to see it)." And mine and KoL's theme aren't look alike. He did what he likes and I did what I like from screenshots. There're dozen of Plex and Slate visual style so why can't there any other Athens port? Don't stick to what you saw first. Grow up, dude. Think of it carefully about what you're going to post. Is that what you should do? Is that what that make Neowin, where unprofessionalism looks better? Is that make my work better? And then post it when you're done.

Amen...

hm, the way i see it, is that Windows X likes to make Longhorn visual styles....just let him, it's not like he's telling you to download it, he just wants to share it with people who appreciate his efforts.

and for people who are sick of longhorn based themes, doesnt the topic name kinda give away what kind of theme is posted ? ;)

Finally Someone Said Something About it

Well Done To Kal's Work and Windows X

Actually, I haven't worked on them right now. I haven't updated any progress almost a month. I just published my works that left in stock. But it's a bit too often because I don't have much time so you may think I work too damn hard on it for now. Don't you worry, I won't take that much for theming, at least for this month.

Hey, Win X, there are soooo many Longhorn themes flooding Neowin already.

Can't you make some new skins? I mean, totally original - not some imitation of Longhorn?

I did but haven't released yet. btw, why don't you ask this to KoL too. I'm expecting to see something cool from his skills.

    • You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.
    • I don't get this David. Can you explain it please.  
    • Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
    • Hello, The Media Creation Tool is still at v10.0.26100.7019 from October 2025. Just looks like the backend has been updated. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
