Mad_Griffith, this can be done only by editing some strings in explorer.exe (with ResHacker)...

But this can be dangerous...

well, in this case is senseless to edit explorer.exe, with the upcoming patches it could be overwritten..so every time you should do the same work :no:

I fixed bug with selected item ( no more green :) )

Nice find, but you can see icons' borders look rather jagged...

I still think LE4 colors were the best.

Btw, PeterPL, did you edited the colors directly within the le5.msstyle or did you just modified the winxp screen panel advanced options?

can you please explain how to do that with StyleBuilder/Reshack/whatever? I can't find the right "option"...

many thanks

sure

Open LE5.msstyle in ResEdit open TEXTFILE in left column and you need change values for NORMABLUE_INI, NORMALBLUEC_INI, NORMALBLACK_INI, NORMALBLACKC_INI.

Find in text

Highlight = 191 223 255 <--change values to 191 223 254

That's all :)

FWIW... hot tracking color is to dark primarily because of the blue text instead of LE4's white text.

Changing it can be problematic because depending on the color chosen you can then have flicker when moving the pointer from one entry to another as in an Explorer window with filenames. Also the hot tracking color also becomes the text color in some applications. System Properties is one of these. If you choose a hot tracking color that is to light then the text is very hard to read.

Seems having a dark blue hot tracking color with white text gives the absolute best visuals.

IMO, that is. :)

Using compact blue btw...

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      Why should simply opening the Action Center ... require any significant amount of CPU cycles? Too many are ignoring the elephant in the room: today's CPUs may have similar clock frequencies to CPUs from a decade ago (~4 to 5 GHz), but they run with far higher performance per clock, even on the smallest E-cores. The Action Center is a static, minor desktop element. It ought to open instantly on any CPU made in the past 2.5 decades at even low clocks. Opening a program? Boost away. Unzipping a file? Boost to your heart's content. Right-clicking the notification area? This should be an ultra-efficient, low-impact event that opens instantly. Compare today's UI elements to Windows 7 UI elements. Today's UI elements hardly do anything more substantial or important or critical, yet now require modern-day processors to jump half a GHz to reduce their latency.

      This is not an option lmao: it is part of the KB5094126 update, pushed to all users. There is no GUI to configure it. Reading the article should be required for commenting.

      Can you recommend me a good Pixel 7 on eBay? Because some are saying Gen 1, and I don't think that's what I want, right?

      Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.

      Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.
