I guess this is my first post here. Tried a different approach to recreating a classic Explorer. This is far from release ready, but overall I'm happy with the results so far. However, Dopus doesn't provide quite the level of customizability I was expecting. The corner resize grips are wrong for some reason, they're not even the system ones. It's not pixel-perfect, in many places it's quite obvious. Directory Opus doesn't have a customizable "button pressed"/"hover + mousedown" state for toolbar buttons. And positioning of elements is really quirky, with limited possibilities, one must rely on background PNGs for toolbars. They have to be 8000 pixels in width in case someone tries to run this on an 8K monitor, because of course. This is with a custom clientedge AHK script. Also sorry for Polish locale. In the future I'll try hacking into it a bit more with Autohotkey, likely by attaching cosmetic overlays to windows using Autohotkey GUI. Sounds like an awful idea. Directory Opus went surprisingly under the radar over here, it doesn't get the recognition it deserves not only for classic theme purposes but also it's simply a great and stable explorer replacement with pretty much limitless functionality, as long as it's not about visuals or staying super faithful to the originals.

I've used a Directory Opus after hearing so much praise for it in the past, but never really bothered with it beyond a few mins of use. But my god, this is amazing.

Looks really good. When will you release the config or the AutoHotkey scripts? I've been thinking about doing a Windows 95 setup and don't want to have 100 explorer windows at the same time.
