WindowFX doesn't add shadow to taskbar?


Recommended Posts

It's very easy, as long as you are not running ancient version of it! Unless you are using it on Windows x64 then it only adds shadows to 32bit programs.

I'm using the latest version, 2.12 and there is no option for enabling the shadow on the taskbar.

It's pritty silly of Stardock releasing this program without the feature of adding a shadow to the taskbar. I don't want to use WindowFX and Y'z Shadow at the same time. They are both great apps, WindowFX has more options and Y'z uses less resources.

I hope they will add Taskbar shadow support.

you mean the line under 'Shadows' where it says, and i quote, "Apply shadows to the taskbar" ?

I don't have that option, maybe you're talking about Y'z shadow, I mean WindowFX.

I downloaded WindowFX version 2.12 from the stardock website and in the program itself it says version 2.11?!?

You really think that's not blaming Stardock?

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
