Instead I added every entry in my "Programs" directory as custom items. Every single one has been added by hand, one at a time, which allows a lot of flexibility, but is extremely time-consuming.  |

Thanks, now to make a question: Is the theme you used in the PowerDesk Toolbar built-in or you just downloaded/made it? |

It's unmodified. It looks like that as standard.

From the first post it is not clear what software is used. And there are no links there.

I didn't use any software besides those that enabled classic theme and replaced the taskbar with an alternative one. I and others have provided links to programs you requested in your own thread. If you have issues, let us know, so we can try and assist you, otherwise there's nothing more we can do for you. |

 Desktop as of now.  Edited the Systems Properties dialog again.  Also edited the Winver dialog.  Made a non-working version of the Connection Manager from W98. PITA to get right.  BT Access version of the same dialog. In the midst of making more of these, of other ISPs. |

My W11 install:  Only a few hours of tweaking thus far. Many thanks to the everyone on the ClassicServ Discord for your help. Only issue I have now is the rather large Address Bar, something is causing SCT Hook not to work right with it. |

 Finally got my Floppy to USB kit in from China, so I took an old floppy drive from one of my Optiplexs and threw this into a 3.5 to 5.25 caddy, then connected the USB to an internal USB female to USB header adapter and hey presto, working floppy drive on W10. |

Props to Scamdisk for the idea; implemented a replica of the classic Control Panel. All links work, and I even added comments to them:  Also added it to the Start menu:  ![]() How did you make this control panel? (apologies if you explained it already, I looked but didn't see it) |

How did you make this control panel? (apologies if you explained it already, I looked but didn't see it) They are shortcuts. I hid the shortcut icon so it no longer appears, and just put all of those shortcuts into a folder. Added benefit to using shortcuts, is you can add comments to them, so they show up when you hover over them with your mouse on the shortcut itself as a tooltip.   anixx : Thank you, but I've already modified the icons themselves. |
