I have been using this theme for a few days now and I love it, however after I started using it, some of the icons from programs I use disappear. They are just blank now. So far it has happened with a few games, Skype, and Paint.NET - the icons are just blank.

Any help with this?

Are there x86 specific bugs again (blank graphics) in the latest version?

I am currently working on some personal/commercial projects (non-theming) but I want to get back to this soon.

I have a rounded version nearly complete (Aero frame/caption look).

I also want to release a version compatible to Chinese users (get rid of Semibold styling and use default).

Then perhaps a clear Taskbar/Start Menu.

And then the triangular large button.

But I have other things to take care of now, sorry. :( :)

You have to actually select the theme.

Right click the desktop --> Personalize.

It should be listed under 'Installed Themes' :) Just click it and it should apply.

Copy/Paste the clearscreen folder and clrscreen.theme file to Windows/Resources/Themes

Install the UXStyle

Right click the desktop--> Personalize

Click on clearcreen under Installed Themes

But nothing happens

Okay so I took the plunge and to my joy, it uses the Win 7 start orb by default. Boy is this theme amazing! Sorry Zain Adeel, this theme edged out your Blend theme. I notice theres a section called resources. What is this for?

You can replace the explorer.exe to change other UI elements. I personally edited the exe even more to include a different start button:

      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.
