So, I'm using Open Shell (Classic Shell) for my taskbar which functions exactly as expected without the classic theme but once enabled it completely glitches as seen in the images, is there any way to fix this.

I hate the forced UWP/Metro/Tablet UI in Windows 10/11, I wish they kept at least the Control Panel.

I can tell it's Windows 10 just from the taskbar, I think OP is starting the Classic Theme before explorer or just simply restarting explorer. There's nothing we can do about it.

Working on de-metroifing the Windows UI (and maybe making it 100% usable without DWM)
