  1. Un-pin everything from the superbar
  2. Download some nice-looking icons. I used Token.
  3. Start changing icons in the start menu.
  4. Re-pin them.

At least, that's how I did it. Tried changing the icon from the jumplist and it didn't work..

EDIT: @KJ: Thanks. That was quick. Can't wait for the next release :)

very nice thx ! how do you change the Windows explore icon ?

Thats the only one I can't seem to change either Spork

btw is there a fix for the 32 bit white bar bug yet?

Hi,

There is no fix yet as I have to download Windows 7 x86 to fix them.

You can read about the current situation here: http://k-johnson.deviantart.com/journal/

Thanks :)

Any chance you plan to introduce the arrowish button you have in the small taskbar version for the big taskbar version? (or modify an x64 explorer just for me ^^ ? ) I absolutely love it!

Yeah, when I get the time and kill as many bugs as possible. :)

I changed this one, and pinned it to the superbar:

Why don't you just press SHIFT and right click a Superbar item? That's a much easier way to change the icon for a Superbar item, instead of changing the icon and repinning the items.

@-KJ: As I said on deviantART, nice job so far. I'll be trying it out once it hits final :)

Because I didn't know better :D

EDIT: Oh yeah, thanks! :)

Meh... I registered just for this very purpose in a probably naive hope, that someone will be able to help with my problem. I did IMO virtually anything to apply the style but it just won't work... I manually replaced explorer.exe, used uxstyle core, used uxtheme patcher and nada... only thing I got is the black round Start button. Weird thing is, I DO get the "sharp look" when I alt-tab out of game (on the game window)... what the hell? :(

Lol, I suppose I can release the .PSD for them? They are all done using vector masks and layer styles, so anyone familiar with them and Photoshop can resize and create their own :)

I totally want the .PSD... I'll use resource hacker and edit it myself! Pleaseee!

BTW I love the style, I really it do... it's amazing. I used it on Vista, now using it on 7 64x :]

I don't know if it's win7 or the theme, or the explorer replacement (using x64 here), but when I bring the computer out of sleep mode, my desktop wallpaper will be shrunken to a 1024 x 768 mode, or sometimes I won't be able to see the border window for digsby.

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
    • If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!
    • After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in many areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
