Welp, as we approach the EOL of Windows 10 in just a year from now, I'm back after awhile with what I was up to lately. I recently got a Mac Mini M2 Pro which means the Windows laptop is my only Windows unit... so I transformed my XP setup originally to Windows 7 with 10to7, but then when the Aero stuff improved a bit I decided to just slam a Windows Vista theme, and some icons, and a few kinks and boom.. Windows Vista.
However, the setup nearly got ruined after a Windows update, so I used the ResourceRedirect mod, found a Vista ResourceRedirect iconpack and backported some .res files from the 7TSP equivalent to Windhawk's ResourceRedirect, which works mostly well for me (so it can survive Windows updates lol.)
NOTE: I know, the winver banner is inaccurate, I know. But I did transplant some of Taylor Swift (yeah ik. :/)'s Seagull image from 1989 Taylor's Version into the Windows Vista design since I think it kinda fits a bit well. And also, Windows transformations are like "Taylor's Version" of computing, so thought to, shake things up a bit
