if you follow these for popoup menus, you can remove the left spacing on separators.
 It looks really nice, excellent discovery. You can also modify the Bottom part of the CONTENTMARGINS in POPUPCHECKBACKGROUND to -4 to make the menu even more compact. |

If you use AutoHotkey, you can recreate some Windows XP wizards or balloon messages. I know nothing about AHK |

This works for me, the menus are now very close to the classic theme. Here is a comparison (on the Luna blue style, but the colors don't count) : Classic theme : ![]()  Visual style : ![]()  It's almost the same menus, there is just the text that seems too right, the direction of the keyboard shortcuts that is reversed, and the arrow that remains black when selected. |

By the way, I had noticed the black selector on popup menus, I don't know how to fix it.

There is no specific color for selection. I will continue to work on this problem. I have already replaced the icons with those of the marlett font. |

 Here is my Windows 10 installation with a Luna theme. The theme is Luna10 with a few modifications I have made to it + BasicThemer2. Sadly, there are some things I cannot fix, such as the inactive text color, but nevertheless, as for me, it looks great and accurate.  I managed to make the command prompt have the classic theme. How did I do this? I added a registry key to the CMD startup entry, which runs SetClassicTheme setting the classic theme for the command prompt window.  And also regarding my mods to Luna10, here is a showcase of the titlebar shadow (which was present in Luna) and also some mods to the popup menu. Tomorrow I'll probably mod Luna10 even further to look more accurate. I'll also make Royale and Royale Noir variants later as these 2 are my favorite XP themes. How did you get Help and Support Center, Office 2007, and the Command Prompt to have the classic theme? |

Is it possible to recreate one of the longhorn msstyles like Slate? Plex would be easier cause it uses the same window metrics as XP.

Really amazing! It really looks accurate and 100x better than the other Windows 11/10 XP transformations. Are we likely gonna see a tutorial on how to replicate this, plus a transformation pack sometime? Really wanna slap this on my computer.
