You can call that a bug in Windows.

If you take a look at all other tabs they are fine. I dont know why microsoft didnt use the right tab image in that part.

yeah but in LE4 is correct why ?

Because the are not the same type of tabs and mine are together and the LE4 have a separation. I'll see if I can fix it without losing the effect that I want.

I reworked the windows. Im going to change them for v2, I'll include the new windows and Im going to work more with the Silver version. In the mockup you can see the Black and Silver versions, you can see the Transparent version that Im going to use for WindowBlinds 5 and the "Glass" effect that I made to create the windows. That how the windows will look without shadows and the msstyle version wont have bigborders and it wont include the transparent version.

WOW! It looks amazing. "...and Im going to work more with the Silver version" - but please don`t disregard the black version :whistle:

And just one suggestion: How about making the taskbar splitters like the original vista beta 1 splitters !?!?

post-44281-1127317992.jpg

yeah im going to have 1024 mb ram instead of 512 i got atm

and upgrading to wb5 will be fine, coz i want to stay on winxp, swithcing to vista wont happen till my pc will be x64 :D

and as i ve said before, looks like i ll use kol's "transparency" version for wb5.

looks freakin good

Im going to try the tasklbar gripper and I'll fix the caption buttons.

Also Im going to remove the black text with the white shadow of the title bars in the black version. I dont like it and makes the size bigger

Edited by KoL

Yes Kol that mockup looks brilliant :p

can't wait :woot:

The only think i dislike is the colour of the caption button on the silver one, maybe make them darker, or lighter, or put a thinkicker border round them.

and just one thing, i never reallly liked the silver taskbar, will that be staying?? :blush:

I fixed the tabs and the disable button thing. This screenshots is of the WB version. I'll fix that on the VS later.

Great theme, I've been using it for a while now, and each update is better than the last.

One thing I've noticed in the newer vista themes are the buttons, they look like the beta 1 buttons, but the ones in the UX guidelines look a little nicer.

I've attached them, maybe they'd look good in this theme?

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.

    • VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.
