You can not use filenames with underscore (_). That's the only problem I've had when the theme doesn't work. If that is not the problem I don't know what is, sorry :( Btw.

EDIT: The theme was created in Stylebuilder 2. Might work if you try that.

:alien: Greetings.

Well first of all i have to say kick a** skin dude.

I am sorry that i have to add this that you missed on the vs.

Might fix that in the next release.

em3, ever thought of allowing open LE MODs? It would be cool to see people play around with this awesome theme.

I allow posting of modded parts, that's it, not the entire theme.

I missed final release but not much has changed, apart from the addition of compact styles, which is always nice. But now I have to reapply my mods, and I'm sooo lazy.

Here's my recreation of the glow hover effect for taskbar items from LE3, and also a return of the gradiented systray area. I also changed the fonts to Segoe UI and compacted the startmenu, but thats dead straightforward to do.

Thanks for the awesome style em3.

Actually there kind of mine... Reason being is that, when you posted the early screenshot I ripped the buttons but then i over wrote the Vs then if you remember I emailed you and asked if it was possible for you to send me them but you said how you won?t be using them or something along those lines... Anyways after that I found a desktop screenshot of them and managed to re-create them in Photoshop, and then used them on my LE3 mod. But then you released LE4 beta... So I used the centre of your buttons and the copy of your buttons I had made. Which kind of makes them mine as I put them togethe:p::p:p

em3 bring back the progess bar you used in le2, the solid green bar insted of the chopped up green blocks.

does anyone know how I could go about modding le4 to have the old progress bar like in le2?

well, this is actually a hybrid to prevent bugs (to this day i still dont know what the hell they are talking about) but yeah, supposedly it solves a bug...just live with this, if you really are bugged, i can mod it, but it'll bring back the mysterious bug :ninja:

Wow. I'm happy to see it's been released finally. I held off on the beta so I've been on the edge of my seat.

What can I say? It's damn near perfect. I LOVE the shell style. The start button will tak a little getting used to, but I like it. The only thing I liked better in older versions was the area in the start menu you now have white. I liked it darker. Maybe to match the shellstyle?

Fantastic job. I looove it.

Wouldn't that be the correct glyph? Left glyph = restoring it to window size, middle glyph = maximising the window completely and right glyph = close. What's wrong?

I think they're unhappy with the fact that it just seems to cut off, and is distanced from the other glyphs. Not much you can do about the cutoff issue, given the style of the theme, and I'm pretty sure that extra padding is added by the apps in question.

    • Windows 11 KB5094126 June 2026 Patch Tuesday update now available to download by Sayan Sen Microsoft has released the June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates for Windows 11 25H2, 24H2. The 25H2 and 24H2 update is provided via KB5094126 (manual download link below), build 26100.8655 on 24H2, and build 26200.8655 on 25H2, after applying the updates. Windows 11 23H2 is available under KB5082052 (build 22631.6936). The full changelog is given below: [Secure Boot] New! The status of Secure Boot certificate updates on your device may be displayed in the Windows Security app (Settings > Privacy & security > Windows Security). These enhancements are disabled by default on commercial devices. 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. This update addresses an issue where the device might enter BitLocker Recovery after the Secure Boot updates. [Networking] This update improves reliability when Windows uses SMB compression over QUIC. After you install this update, SMB compression requests over QUIC complete more consistently, reducing the likelihood of timeouts and supporting smoother, more dependable performance. [Remote Desktop] This update improves protection against phishing attacks that use Remote Desktop (.rdp) files. When you open an .rdp file, Remote Desktop shows all requested connection settings before it connects, with each setting turned off by default. A one-time security warning also appears the first time you open an .rdp file on a device. [Reset this PC (known issue)] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that might cause device reset to fail when using the “Keep my files” or “Remove everything” options. This might occur after installing the March 2026 (KB5079420) Hotpatch security update. These updates will be available from Windows Update and should install automatically in most cases. If you would like to download these updates for offline installation, you can get them from the Microsoft Catalog website. You can find the update for 25H2/24H2 at this link.

    • Amazon Deal: These AMD RX 9070 XT GPUs are very good offers by Sayan Sen Following the release of AMD's new RX 9070 GRE last week for $549 (our review), AMD currently has a couple of great deals on the more powerful 9070 XT wherein the GPU is on sale for $650. We already covered the Gigabyte Gaming model a couple of days ago which is still live at that price. Aside from that, the white ICE variant is also at the same price (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is interesting to note considering white cards are generally more expensive as they come with a premium attached. Similar to the Gaming model, the ICE card too employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The tech specs of the card are given in the table below: Specification Value Boost Clock Up to 3060 MHz (Reference Card: 2970 MHz) Game Clock Up to 2520 MHz (Reference Card: 2400 MHz) Stream Processors 4096 Memory Size 16 GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Bus Width 256-bit PCI Express Interface PCI Express 5.0 Max Resolution 7680 × 4320 Maximum Displays Supported 4 Display Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Card Dimensions 288 × 132 × 56 mm (L × W × H) (2.7 slot) Recommended Power Supply 750 W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin PCIe Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon™ RX 9070 XT Gaming OC ICE 16G Graphics Card (GV-R907XGAMINGOCICE-16GD): $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $750) If your budget is lower, check this Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti 8GB deal out for only $330 wherein you get the latest James Bond game free.
