Looks good, but whenever I minimize a window while trying to copy a file, I see it screw up a bit. Areas where the progress bar shouldn't be filled in get filled in, and I don't like that "bug".

Yea... but that doesn't happen with the current progressbar I think. :huh:

So there are 2 bugs if I go back to solid progressbar. :p

2 bugs + I like block style = No change ... for now.

Ok, v3.1 beta is ready. Send me a PM if you're intressted in testing it.

Edit: I can't connect to my server space atm. If you PM me I can't reply util I can connect there.

Changelog:

* Rebuilt LE from scratch. Might have introduced new bugs (the reason for beta test).

* Tweaked a lot of values.

* New close button for tray balloons (not the one in java test versions)

* Last and most important, theme now works for people who coudn't run it before (hopefully) and java issue fixed (hopefully).

LunaVX uses a similar solid type progress bar and there are no issues with it. Maybe if you checked it out and compared notes with your's you could squash the bug. Just a thought..

Here it is, Luna Element 3. A new version of the visual style some say is the best theme ever. It is based on Luna, the Windows XP default theme, and some stuff are still in original design so I can't take credit for everything. I hope you like it though.

Run the installer and if you have patched uxtheme.dll you can now change theme under Display Properties > Appearance > Windows and Buttons.

This VS includes 8 styles:

* Normal

* Normal Alt. Startbutton

* Noraml Compact

* Normal Compact Alt. Startbutton

* Royal

* Royal Alt. Startbutton

* Royal Compact

* Royal Compact Alt. Startbutton

The theme was updated: 2005-05-20

Current version is: 3.0

Changes in v3.0:

* new captionbars for all styles exept Royal (Royal is improved a little though)

* improved caption buttons for all styles

* improved taskbar (just a little)

* improved green startbuttons (might be a problem for languages where the text is not "start")

* improved scrollbars and spinners

* improved buttons (tiny change)

* improved some stuff on startmenu

* improved startmenu menu hover, now look more like default menus

* improved taskbar menu (grouped taskes)

* smaller scrollers by default for compact styles

* improved startmenu menu

* improved progressbars (just a little)

* 2 extra pixel in height for compact taskbar

There are probably more, just can't remember everything.

And don't forget to let me know what you think :)

this is VERY good! it would be excellent this way... however, I still agree that it's better to keep with the actual one if this is what corrects the bug.

but I still believe that there is a way to fix the bug, so we can have the bar shown above that makes my BitTorrent looks much more beautiful and readable, AND in bugless way :D

I guess everyone would he happy with that

what do i need to use thie vs...i run the LE3.exe file and nothing  :no:

Once you've run the LE3.exe, go into display properties>Appearance then select it from the list.

That is, providing you've got the modded uxtheme.dll installed... you DO have the non-microsoft uxtheme don't you?

    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Capcom had a surprise waiting for Dragon's Dogma fans today in the Nintendo Direct presentation. The company revealed an expansion for the second installment with a name that should be familiar to series veterans. Coming later this year, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is promising a massive new region to explore, new monsters, fresh skills to learn, and more. The studio says players will be heading to the Northern region of the world, named Norgan, to find new secrets about an undying "Fallen Dragon." There will be forgotten relics that the protagonist can find to unlock fresh weapons and skills the expansion is introducing. Players will also be able to find mysterious equipment from a previous Arisen as a part of the expansion, all part of 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges they must complete to gain access. In Neowin's own review, I found Dragon's Dogma 2 to be an impressive RPG when it launched back in 2024, giving the title an 8.5/10 for its class variants, companion system, and immersive exploration. "Once a prosperous region of the kingdom of Vermund, it was abandoned many years ago for reasons unknown," says Capcom about the new region. "Long has it been since any soul traveled its paths. Blanketed in heavy snow, these frigid lands are home to savage hordes and creatures of unbelievable power. Those who are capable of vanquishing such fearsome foes, or those who possess a keen eye for exploration, will find themselves rewarded with powerful relics." Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion launches on October 9, 2026, with a $29.99 price tag. Ahead of the expansion release, Capcom is also planning to release two free updates to the base game. The first will land tomorrow, June 10, bringing more accessible fast travel with an Eternal Ferrystone and other quality-of-life adjustments. The second update will land sometime in August, aiming to improve frame rates, add more save slots, and bring even more community-requested adjustments. This expanded Dark Arisen edition is also launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day the content comes to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
    • Classic themes are just the colors on the bar like the olden days, if you use the image themes, it does fancy transparent backgrounds and it makes the elements of the app look like they are transparent bubbles. This sample image shows what it looks like.  
    • Good point, unfortunately. NextDNS has far more filters and workarounds than uBlock, and it's easy to implement.
    • Windows 10 KB5094127 Patch Tuesday improves File Explorer search and more by Taras Buria The June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates are here, bringing mandatory patches to users with PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Update program for Windows 10. Microsoft is rolling out KB5094127, with build numbers 19045.7417 and 19044.7417. Changelog includes the following: [File Explorer] This update improves File Explorer search, including support for Chinese text, and UTF 8–encoded files without a byte order mark (BOM). Text now displays more clearly and consistently across search results, Content view, and tooltips. [Secure Boot] This update enables dynamic status reporting for Secure Boot states in Windows Security App. This update adds a new policy setting, LimitSecureBootRequiredServiceData, under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Secure Boot. When this setting is enabled, Windows limits the Secure Boot service data it sends by suppressing the event normally sent to Microsoft. This policy is also included in the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline package. For information about the policy, see Manage connections from Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating system components to Microsoft services. With this update, Windows quality updates include additional high confidence device targeting data, increasing coverage of devices eligible to automatically receive new Secure Boot certificates. Devices receive the new certificates only after demonstrating sufficient successful update signals, maintaining a controlled and phased rollout. As for known bugs, Microsoft has the following to say: A workaround is available in the official documentation. Today's updates are available for PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Updates program only. If your PC is eligible, you can download the update from Settings > Windows Update or from the Microsoft Update Catalog here.
