Do you know any threads on 7+ Taskbar Tweaker configs for classic theme?

Here is my registry file for 7+TT: 7tt.reg (6.08 KB) I set the interval of icons in tray to be 2px (as in Win95-WinXP), disable groupping, enable standard context menu, disable previews (they do not work under classic theme, but since you start explorer before, they may work), hide show desktop button, hide 7+TT tray icon and other settings to make it look and behave like Win2000.

Also, sonsider importing UPM to the registry so to enable the 3D borders in the menus: www.winclassic.net/thread/120/classic-theme-adjusting-upmcalc-borderAlso, maybe you should delete the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\DefaultColors Under Windows 8.1 deleting this key prevents resetting the windows colors to default after logging off to login screen and back (or pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del).

That's alot of considering I have to do One question though. Do I have to install 7+TT alongside OpenShell and StartIsBack or can it be used as an alternative to those Aside from that I'll add this to the todo list: By default delete the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\DefaultColors By default import standard window metrics As an option replace pinned items with quicklaunch toolbar As an option insall classic task manager

7+TT is officially compatible with Classic Shell and does not overlap in function. I do not know about Startisback.
I suggest by default also unset the bit 17 in User Preference Mask to make the menus looking 3D (like in Win 95-XP).
Since other bits are normally should not be changed, here is what I recommend to import:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"UserPreferencesMask"=hex:9e,3e,05,80,13,00,00,00

I really think this could be a feature in simpleclassictheme: I got a brainstorm : everybody complains that build 1903 has broken context menu and then it hit me but what if it's beyond repair and harshly deleted? There is a tool for that called ProcessExplorer.zip (1.9 MB) what it allows you to do is killing threads within explorer but it shows the opcode too now what would happen if someone made a custom context menu using the same opcode and injected that into explorer?

Hmmm... I can see why the GUI is opening instead of just applying theme. I check if the program is in the Start Menu folder. That check is case-sensitive. As to why the config button is not working. I have no clue. Try opening the config outside of the progrmadata folder? eg. Downloads

Quick note to everyone using this: After you download a new version of this program you must click Install again to update the auto launched version.
