This mod works great on my Thinkpad T23. Once I turned off Glass2k, the UI was much faster. I like the vista start bar. It's very smooth and easy on the eyes. I was hoping to add a few requests for consideration in the next release.

1. In Vista build 5208 the icons in the Computer folder have bars underneath them indicating how full the drive is. This is an insanely great idea and I hope Microsoft keeps it. I was also hoping you could emulate it.

2. In the appearances pane of the desktop properties no matter what colors I select for the title bars and such, they never seem to apply. The machine just keeps using the defaults for the current theme. Is this a bug or a lmitiation of the theme?

3. Keep up the good work. Maybe toss in an alt + tab replacement that looks like the Vista one which kinda folds the window panes together.

Interesting pack. Haven't tried it yet, but not really interested in a complete transformation to the Vista Look and feel.

What I am after is a good quality WindowBlinds 5.01 theme and some icons. I am currently using the "arrow" theme by Mike Bryant. This is a very good theme, but does not take advantage of the blurred transparency effect that can be achieved with WindowBlinds 5.01 in title and task bars. Does anyone know of a Vista aero type theme that has this effect? The reason I ask is that I find that transparency in title bars without blurring is a bit messy and distracting. If the title bars had the blurring effect, theywould be much more pleasant to the eye and also go further to mimicking the look of Vista...

I'm sort of new to this...but, dude!, your links take me to a page in which I can't download 05160504notlink.JPG, I can't click on them. :wacko:

This theme worked great on my computer, except there was just one problem. After I used it, my computer was 10 times more slow. I made a restore point before I installed it, so I had to restore back and I'm right in the same place I was before.

So does anyone know what I can do to fix this before I delete it from my computer?

Nevermind, I figured it out. Thanks anyways to whoever tried.

bRADynelson,

When you come on here to ask for help with a problem and then figure it out, it is considered polite to tell us what it was you figered out. That way if others are having the same problem you will be helping them out to.

Ok, cool. It was like everyone said, uninstall Glass2k. I just hadn't bothered to go back a few pages. I'll do that next time.

    • After enabling it in about:config, customize, density, compact; the toolbar/address bar gets smaller vertically. I enabled Nova, I notice the tab bar/title bar is a bit larger vertically now? Everything always becomes a waste of space.
    • Microsoft's Copilot Cowork now generally available with usage-based billing by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in March, Microsoft first revealed Copilot Cowork, a new agentic AI experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot through which users can assign tasks to AI to complete in the background. After testing the service with a limited set of customers in Research Preview for a few weeks, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork to customers in the Frontier program on March 30. Today, Microsoft announced the general availability of Copilot Cowork worldwide for Microsoft 365 Copilot customers. The company also highlighted that Cowork became the fastest-growing feature in the history of its Frontier program. Unlike regular Copilot Chat, Copilot Cowork can run complex, long-running, multi-tool tasks from start to finish in the cloud by using organizational context through Work IQ. When compared to Claude Cowork, Microsoft claims that Copilot Cowork will be 30% to 40% cheaper on average with its Microsoft 365 connector. For now, Copilot Cowork runs on Anthropic models, including Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 4.6. However, Frontier customers can now use GPT-5.5. Microsoft also announced Cowork 1, a secure fine-tuned model coming in the next few weeks, which is designed to handle everyday Copilot tasks at a lower cost. To access Copilot Cowork, a Microsoft 365 Copilot user subscription is required. Usage is billed separately through Copilot Credits, based on model use, context retrieval, tool calls, and runtime. Pay-as-you-go pricing is set at $0.01 per Copilot Credit. To offer IT teams full control over usage costs, Microsoft provides spending limits, usage alerts, user-level controls, reporting, and prepaid usage plans for organizations. Usage-based billing begins today. However, Frontier customers who used Cowork between March 30 and June 16 will not be billed until July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app now includes a toggle to enter the full Cowork experience. Microsoft is also adding partner plugins, with Enosix, Harvey, LSEG, Miro, monday.com, Moody’s, Morningstar, S&P Global Energy, and TeamsMaestro available now. Adobe, Atlassian, Box, Canva, Databricks, and others are coming soon.
