This is great Leet, thank you for the update, moreso because I've been able to install W11 and really want to use this to enable classic theme. Only problem is you've only released the source code. Any chance for a compiled release? Cheers.

Not got around to trying SCT on W11, but I will soon. Merry Xmas, and thanks again for the updates Leet.

Tried the latest version out on my W11 install, got as far as "Finalizing installation and enabling Classic theme" but it just hangs. Going to try and kill the process and see what happens. EDIT: OK, killing the process and logging out and back in seems to have got it working. Issues I've noticed though:
- Can't seem to install ExplorerPatcher from within SCT. Button doesn't do anything. - SCT Taskbar refuses to load even though I selected it and have it installed.
Will update after I've manually installed ExplorerPatcher.
EDIT2: Configured ExplorerPatcher from within SCT and also appears good, except for the context menus being blank. Disabling immersive menus from within EP fixed the issue, but upon logging out and in, SCT resets it back. SCT taskbar still refuses to load.

Finally, a useful bug report. Will investigate the issue with ExplorerPatcher and context menu's! I will also fix an issue where SCT asks if you want to run the wizard, every single time. For your issue in the wizard itself, I still need some more info; what options did you choose?

- Bumped to 1.5.3 fixing another update loop
- Bound the button to install ExplorerPatcher to the actual code that does that
- Lifted the restriction where the user needs to run SCT from the start menu in order to enable Classic Theme with Taskbar. Instead, you now only need to have SCT installed to enable SCT with Classic Taskbar.

- SCT Taskbar refuses to load even though I selected it and have it installed. Fixed, I posted a patched version of the latest public release on GitHub in order to remove the error dialogs, but I broke updates by messing up the version number. I have now created yet another release of SCTT and the version number is correct this time, so SCT won't remove it while updating.

Sorry for the delay, here's the picture: This is the lastest update. Afaik, it's only the context menu that does it. Still need to disable immersive menus via EP's menu for legacy context menus to show non-blank. Also, sadly SCT taskbar still doesn't load for me.

Uhm.. I needed a screenshot of your wizard options. You mentioned it got stuck on Finalizing?
EDIT: To do so, run SCT with --wizard, select the options you chose (if you still remember), send the screenshots and cancel the wizard.

- Disabled loading of UI during update
- SCT now properly kills SCT.T while updating it
- Enabled correct explorer patching option when on Windows 10 (ECMT)
- Made splash only display the first three version components
- Cleaned up the looks of AHK and Utility manager
- SCT now removes all registry when uninstalling

Note: it may seem like SCT crashes while updating, but it's actually waiting for a batch script to load, which can take a while for some reason It actually is stopping because of a bug. 1.5.5 just got released, but you need to update manually. Running SCT 1.5.5 on your PC and pressing "Run SCT on boot" will automatically update the installed version:

Jackal is using SCT, which does not support using Explorers taskbar in Classic Theme. ExplorerPatcher taskbar support is planned however! The code is partially there (enabling is implemented, disabling isn't), it just needs to be tested (I only have one Windows 11 install, which I don't want Classic Theme on). The Jackal, you can PM me here or on Discord if you would like to try/test that out.

There is no need for any kind of special support. You just install EP and enable classic theme, and that's it.
