Big thanks to WindHawk! Maybe someday we can get a mod for the proper spacing in the Navigation Pane! Attachments:

Incase you want File Explorer to open to Libraries by default (Like Windows 7) - Thanks to WinAero for the tutorial! All you gotta do is place launch in your Windows Directory C:\Windows then run the "Set Libraries for File Explorer" Reg. |

It looks amazing dude, very cool transformation. However, how did you fix the navigation bar so it follows the theme of the title bar, apart from making the Libraries section show them? I use Oldnewexplorer and just shows a Libraries section without showing them under that. I've been looking for a solution for the pesky navigation bar for ages, and given that it's related to the damn "dark mode" it seems very difficult to fix.

Im using Windows Blinds for the theme, though in OldNewExplorer there should be an option that says "Enable Glass on NavigationBar" or somethin similar

When I tried that program they still looked win10 default, they weren't covered by WB and the program wasn't compatible with Startisback so I had to stop using it. I once tried on a vm the "Enable glass on Navigation Bar" thing and it didn't work. However I've been told there's a script to not extend the "dwm frame" so it could work with that. |

That's amazing though. How did you get them? Are those previews generated by your windowblinds theme or by something else? Tell me what program do you use for the taskbar and other ones apart from Windowblinds. |

did you restart explorer and dwm Well I ended explorer, ended DWM, which immediately restarted, then started explorer with New Task. This fixes a bit of it, but not the parts I said. |

using latest startisback++ (paid not cracked) Using latest as well. Whenever windowblinds has the win7 theme loaded, startisback blur is completely disabled. Same in the start menu if I enable that. It just can't seem to use blur when windowblinds is. Rest of it works fine except the blur. And the taskbar is kinda messed up, like the tray highlights are gone, and the show desktop button is huge. In fact, startisback blur is kind of broken as a whole now. It rarely works at all anymore for me.
Also, elements from the msstyle are being overwritten by windowblinds. The normally square explorer nav bar buttons are now the round ones like from windows XP, and control panel sidebar loses its color.
