Thanks,

Later today I will update the visual style to address the issues below:

- x86 blank graphics in Systray, IE8 Search

- Start Panel has an unblurred portion when opening it up (Fix: Widen the solid Program List area to cover the unblurred portion)

Nice! Any update on the normal title bar? :)

I'll have an default Aero/caption frame version. I'll have a variation listing in the DeviantArt details area. Hopefully I'll get that done today, too :)

Perhaps even one with the default taskbar/startmenu included for those who really like the base of the theme, but not so much frames and outer styling.

Still getting the wide system try bug..

Oh wait, you fixed it in 3.0, but broke it again in 3.1. :p

Yeah, you're right.

I noticed that the Soft VS recent update is also having problems where the bug is reappearing. I have to compile the theme in x86 each time now to 'fix' it. :s

Have you patched your Windows to allow custom visual styles? Use the tool here - http://uxstyle.com/

I have extracted the files from the download

Copy/Pasted it to Windows/Resources/Themes

Installed the theme but nothing changes even after the restart

And i have downloaded the uxpatch and well it just installs

What does that application does?

Mine does the same thing. The only thing that changed for me was the start orb after swapping it over. (Yes i patched using uxtheme).

Looks like im going back to standard for now :(

You shouldn't have to restart to apply the theme. How are you installing the theme. When I did it I right clicked on desktop --> personalize --> then choose ClearScreen from the 'installed themes section'.

Installing the theme shouldn't change the start orb. I thought that only got replaced after explorer.exe, or is that what you mean?

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
