I dislike every single one of those skins.

Someone please hand me the style builder! XD

Yeah I didn't like most themes for Vista either -- the one I did like was called Transblack but doesn't have a Windows 7 equivalent yet. Instead for Windows 7 I just settled for Ribbon VS which is a slight improvement over the default Windows 7 theme. But since everyone has different tastes, that's why I compiled the list in the first place.

Well I think the port of Luna Royal is great, but it's a basic theme and I would miss the new "aero peek" feature.

Otherwise Ribbon VS is my favorite Visual Style.

Currently I'm also using windowblinds 7 (beta available through object desktop subscription), and the result is decent.

Bit weird regarding NEXTlevel. I can install the theme just fine, but I can't get the start orb to change to the one in the screenshot. I took ownership of Explorer, I downloaded the x64 Explorer from the same page and replaced the original with it, but still no luck. Weird.

did you close the explorer.exe process and reopen it?

Yeah, but I found the cause of the problem. I opened the supposed patched explorer.exe in Restorator 2007, and only one of the BMP's were updated with the newer logo, when 3 of them needed to be updated.

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

      There really isn't anything magical about the low latency profile, other OS's do this as well. All they're doing is using your CPUs boost clock options in a more smarter way.

      So we shouldn't have the option because of people using their laptops on battery? OK? LOL

      If you hear that fans for a limited time the CPU spikes to open a app I don't think the problem is with the software. There shouldn't be enough time spent at the higher clocks to produce enough heat to peak the fans. Maybe it's time to crack those dell laptops open and clean them out?
