I'm currently using a combo of BetterAero7x on Windowblinds, plus Explorer Patcher, plus Open Shell, plus OldNewExplorer, plus a sound pack, an upscale of the Windows 7 wallpaper, a Windows 7 icon pack I found on Github, Customizer God for taskbar wifi icon, sound icon and a few other icons, and lastly Winaero Tweaker for a variety of tweaks. All of that, and there's still some elements of Windows 11 left over and it's really bugging me. For example, UAC is still the modern Windows one, some elements of File Explorer are still unchanged, my Login Screen is still unchanged, my taskbar window previews are from Windows 10 (because of Explorer Patcher), my Control Panel is this weird hybrid of Windows 7 and Windows 11, etc. etc. etc. So, if anybody could either make a guide or link me to a guide on how to fully transform Windows 11 into Windows 7 completely, I would really really appreciate it  |

Thank you for the links. I'm actually already using most of those, but they don't cover the things I mentioned. UAC is fine, I can just disable it. The login screen on the other hand, I've definitely seen somebody on this forum who had the Windows 7 Login Screen, I believe it was a modded version of Classic Login Shell, he provided a download link but I don't know how to work it, it's like the program in it's raw uncompiled form, idk what to do with that. And I've also seen people on Windows 11 who had the Windows 7 Aero taskbar thumbnail previews and even aero task lists. I think you're right about StartAllBack doing that but when I try to use it myself it completely bricks explorer.exe, I'm pretty sure that's due to an incompatibly between StartAllBack and WindowBlinds, but I have no idea how to fix that. There's also some other things that I've seen people do and would love to know how, aero borders on clock and volume flyouts, colored left panel in the control panel, and "Favorites" in File Explorer left panel (I actually have this already but it has no drop down menu like it's supposed to have.) Regardless, thank you again for the information, WinFlip isn't something I already have so I will definitely look into that. |

justaduckinacostume Alternatively, you can use a native Windows visual style instead of WindowsBlind.

Hello justaduckinacostume. There is, but it only changes the buttons. You have to use MicaForEveryone for the aero effects. Also file explorer is blue?

There is. I dont think it would be better since it is still WIP. this is the link to the theme. Download the main repo by clicking on the Code button and pressing "Download ZIP", follow the instructions in the "HOWTO.txt" file and enjoy. |
