This transformation pack has ruined a lot of peoples computers

QFT. I dont recommend that anyone gets this. Its forced several people that I know of to reformat their hard drive, including me. A very buggy program that will likely damage windows beyond repair.

The styler toolbar in VTP 6.0 Proper is not stable.It flickers every now and then. Version 5.5 was way more stable than this one. Also, with hardly a month for Vista to hit the markets, I will better wait for the original Home Premium version.

The transformation pack was great but there is one problem.

Is there a way to prevent the sidebar from opening on startup? I unchecked it in msconfig but that activated the selective startup and the msconfig comes up every time XP starts up and asks me to re-check the sidebar. Is there another way to prevent the sidebar from opening automatically? It would suck to have to reinstall the pack.

When selective startup comes up on reboot, you can check "show menu at startup" or some such option. It's the only check box on that screen. This will keep it from appearing at startup, unless you change something else in the startup options.

I uninstalled VTP 5.5. For some reason when anyone of the family logged out and someone else logged in the computer would hang and the firewall would crash. This was particularly annoying, meaning most time we just restarted the computer to make sure everything would work.

I used a Registry Cleaner to take out the remaining VTP gunk and ran SFC.exe (Open run and type: "SFC /scannow") to make sure all the dll's and system files were restored. Everything is hunky dory now!

wth i cant find the edit button...?anyways sorry for my double post but there is NO transparency to normal windows. the only transparency is the sidebar window when you open up the widgets. thats all there is. and the start orb is cut off to level with the rest of the start menu...for some reason. I just didnt like the theme they had.

EDIT: o.o theres no edit button for the post above...

erm i'm kinda of a computer idiot, where is our system files?

Forget about installing this then. Go look for the other Vista visual styles, they're A LOT safer. I used this before back in the day when it was called Longhorn Transformation Pack... Not exactly a pleasant experience as I shall say. :/

    • What about it? The old MV2 version will not work.
    • Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
    • Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Confirming many rumors, Nintendo officially announced a remake of the classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the very first game in the series that offered a 3D experience to fans. Unlike previous remasters and re-releases, the originally 1998-released fantasy adventure game is being remade from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch 2 console this time. "The Nintendo 64 classic returns for a new generation in 2026, reborn exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2," said the company about today's announcement. While Nintendo didn't go into much detail about the project, other than confirming its existence, we did get a small teaser trailer at the Direct presentation today. Catch the footage below: With a tapestry as the backdrop, the first half of the trailer tells the tale of Hyrule, the Kokiri forest dwellers, and their fairy companions. It goes onto introduce "one particular boy" without a fairy, which then cuts to a sleeping Link, showcasing what looks like the new art style being introduced in the remake. Unfortunately, no gameplay or a look at the world has been revealed yet. The game originally released for the Nintendo 64 back in 1998, offering a time travel adventure where Link is once again going up against the evil king Ganondorf. The hugely well-received title has only been playable on modern Nintendo consoles using the Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't have a firm release date yet, but Nintendo says it will be released sometime in 2026. Considering just how many publishers are avoiding the Grand Theft Auto VI release nowadays, the company may copy that strategy and also opt to bring this out before November this year.
