2. You can give this patch to your friends or company within personal use.

4. You cannot redistribute any file which come from this patch without my permission.

GIVE means "Bring this stuffs to your friend"

REDISTRIBUTE means "repack any file or some from my Longhorn Transformation Pack for new package"

Hope you understand.

And is all this legal stuff legal or is it just put in for that sake of it. I cant see how any of you can copyright this stuff properly with going through the proper authorities.

So people therefore can do what they want with it.

Thats what all this modding is kind of about isnt it?

WindowsX. My deepest congratulations, it was worth the wait.

Installed and everything works perfect! just perfect!

two things I need help with people:

1. how do I make the transparecy effect?

2. how do I put the image of my account back to the menu? it just displays my name...I have attached a file for you to see.

My Keynote is just simulate transparent (Aero trans in Slate looks like white) and I tried to make it same as much as I can.

I've checked my setup resources and found this bug.

There's booting freeze error because it can't find ntoskrnl.exe if you didn't install new boot screen

Only one I found. I'll discover more this night and make patching become more stable as Mac OSX Transformation Pack (This time i'll use silent batch because more compatibility and better.)

Question: Is it possible to run the setup again and change which style you are using? I'm thinking if I get tierd of running Aero I could change to Slate and change the bootscreen.

Changing that part is changing system files which has sharing violation problem so it's best for uninstall and reinstall this stuffs.

I will you for the last time.

YOU CAN CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO DO OR NOT! YOU CAN CHOOSE TO INSTALL ONLY THEMES, WALLPAPERS AND SCREENSAVER (WHICH IS COMMON PARTS THAT MUST BE INSTALLED) YOU CAN CHOOSE NOT TO CHANGE ANY SYSTEM FILES OR SIDEBAR OR AERO TOOLBAR STYLE. GET IT?

P.S. I'm uploading Longhorn Transformation Pack 4.0 Refresh which is my real complete work. Previous ones is not really done because i\of the situation that someone bring it to public place and then I have to release this imcomplete work! Refresh version is one that I really have done. If you're lucky, you could get it next day and do not release it before me!

this PS is mainly directed to me

im going to take the blame for this one... i f ucked up and put the link for longhorn transormation pack on that other thread.... i didnt realize Windows-X gave me that link to TEST the pack itself...he wasnt complete with it

so then he had to publically release it before someone stole(not sure if thats the right word....cuz i could be wrong on this as well) his work....

anyway hes working on a LTP 4.0 Refresh.... until he puts the link on here officially...im not going to touch it.... hell im not going to even download it until i see the link from his own posting

this should fix all the **** ups people were having...and now we shall wait for HIM(not to be confused with His Infernal Magesty :) ) to release it

By the way...someone was asking how to make "Aero" transparent...from the looks of Windows-X's screen shot... he is using Glass 2k

that program will enable u to get the transparency effect...i believe the program is freeware as well

Google Search for Glass 2k

I will you for the last time.

You are never given the option to NOT ALTER:

explorer.exe

ntoskrnl.exe

moricons.dll

msgina.dll

shell32.dll

uxtheme.dll

People who don't know much about system files would never be able to recover the originals of these files made by ur setup program if they experienced an error with installation and canceled out of it.

WindowX, outstanding job on the LTP I'm looking forward to the refresh. I installed with no problems and everything is running smoothly. I don't like how the desktop icons look without the clear type text running but i put them on the task bar and that's ok too. again great work!!

    • Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes by Usama Jawad Visual Studio 2026 recently netted a powerful feature that finally allows developers to review Git Pull Requests (PRs) directly in the integrated development environment (IDE), without needing to switch to the browser. However, that's not all that Microsoft introduced in the latest version, as it also offered a useful way to customize the IDE to their heart's content. Although Visual Studio 2026 already provides lots of stock themes based on Fluent Design principles, Microsoft understands that people still want to customize them further according to their preferences. The IDE now offers a new configuration page for themes under Tools > Options > Environment > Visual Experience > Theme colors. This allows you to set hex color codes for accent colors, hover states, and more, and apply them without requiring a restart. The Redmond tech giant further says that: Microsoft is also offering granular color tokens that allow you to customize various UX elements like the tab header without impacting the rest of the shell chrome. Your themes are also stored in JSON format in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\18.0_xxxxxxxx\ColorThemes, which basically enables you to share it with others or override existing themes. This is a major improvement in terms of the user experience powering these customization capabilities. This is because extensions were required to replace the theme, and it was not very easy to make minor adjustments. This theme configuration UX solves this problem and is available in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7, available here.

    • It's interesting to hear that AI growth is not investor driven.
    • A few weeks ago, I had this same exact issue. Unfortunately, I didn't think of disabling the Secure Boot option in BIOS. I updated my BIOS to the latest version for my MB and it resolved the issue.
