I'm trying it with my office humble P4 with onboard graphics. No glassy effect. Yes the log/turn-off buttons are abit out of place. The user pic edges are rough. In general it's still usable and good effort. Better than the other Aero5296 VS floating around but banned here.

It used to be in past and now VTP 2.0 stopped it completely.

For "out out place" logoff/shutdown, I really can't cut the text out even in wb5 so acting shutdown text as another item in list is possible idea for VS or I need to make the button shorter which doesn't make it look cool at all.

About user pic, I can use original ones which can be smoother but this one is brand new stuff which I want to add.

Your theme is great and you seem a very nice person, WinX ^^ , keep up the good work, expect to see the functional log/shutdown button soon, don't let M$ beat you!!!! btw I like horizontal bar like it is, I saw other styles trying to do that preview pane thing (image preview, file details,etc) and didn't worked right or looked awful

I'm surprised ^^!!! , i was thinking that those buttons should be in the dark part, making the more programs pane smaller (so the border is the all programs part,like Real 5259 by gcn8) but you came with a clever idea, hope it feels right when using it ^^'

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
