Customization :: Colour Swap On Desktop Menus

Sep 25, 2015

Been playing with registry entries for a few days and I cannot seem to get the setup I want running. I will Pic appropriately to illustrate:

Basically, I want to move away from the Light, and into the Dark Theme, Keeping my Teal Colour scheme (looks win95/98, retro~) but the Dark themes apply only to the metro styling. I want Desktop Styling also, the Title Bars from White to Black (or more specifically the Dark theme RGB of 31,31,31):

applied to Title Bars of Desktop:

And of course the Active Window Titles from black to white (to show on the black title bars).

But I also want the Dark Menus:

Metro Dark theme Menu:

Applied to Desktop White Menu:

Photoshopped pic (OK MSPainted) to show what I mean:

(doesn't even need the 'Share + View' part, just the title will make me happy, looks nicer tho )

Hopefully I can get this working and list up all the useless preinstalled apps (to remove them from build), I can apply it to and build my own Win10 ISOs so I can clean-install my Desktop, Laptop and Tablet!

Dec 5, 2015

I'm having with Windows 10.

I recently did a reinstallation and since doing so, I'm unable to rectify 2 issues I'm having.

The first is my system tray icons and sub menus for task bar icons having a 1px border like the following screenshot:-

The second, if I right click my taskbar icons, I want to make the colour match the rest of the colour scheme, not be black, like the following screenshot:-

Can you change the Individual Colour of live Tiles, even if only the ones you have made yourself.

Customization :: Define Special Colour Showing Up Wrong In Personalize

Sep 27, 2015

I defined the custom colour as ffffc5 which is supposed to be a really pale yellow as seen here

But instead, it looks like this:

I figure it could be from Windows using ABGR instead of the RGB I used to get these colours from Paint, but how could that change the hexadecimal code I translated it to?

Customization :: Context Menus Not The Same - 2 Computers

Nov 20, 2015

I have 2 different Windows 10 machines...

1. A clean install of Windows 10.
2. An upgrade from Windows 7.

The right-click context menus are very different on each. I have imported the same themes and tried to match as many of the tweaks on the 2 machines.

For starters I have disabled Segoe UI completely, and replaced it with Arial. Also, Font Smoothing and Cleartype are completely disabled.

For the clean 10 machine, I get clean white context menus, both on the desktop and taskbar... no blurring.

For the 10 machine upgraded from 7, I get a gray blurry context menu, and a dark gray one on the taskbar.

See the compare pick below. Click on it to view full size to see the true compare.

Customization :: Any Way To Change Fonts Of Menus

Sep 24, 2015

on previous releases of Windows you could select Fonts for Window titles, menus , toolbars etc.

On two of my monitors the current fonts just look HIDEOUS and there's no way to change them -- worked fine on Windows 7.

This is going to cause BIG problems for some people if we upgrade to W10. They are using laptops - then it's fine if not using an external monitor but when plugged into decent monitors via HDMI is when the problem starts. Applications are fine but the menus / titlebars etc are almost unreadable !!!!!

For instance -- no problem typing this post on to the Forum but looking at the http address or the menu line of the browser is HIDEOUS.

Using latest INTEL HD graphics drivers.

At least on XP --->W8 you could st the individual fonts for system items such as titlebars etc.

I'm running W10 x-64 pro build 10240 (RTM).

This is a BIG showstopper.

Note it's for the WINDOWS SYSTEM stuff I need to change the fonts for -- in things like Word you can change as desired in the APPLICATION area but not the Menu area etc.

For example -- File explorer list --hideously unreadable !!!! However uploading to png you can't see how bad it is !!! but it IS unreadable on the monitor.

How To Easily Swap Between Power Options

In Windows 8, I could right click on the task bar's battery icon and then swap between pre-set power settings. In Windows 10 this is no longer possible. I need to right click on it, then click on power options and then there select the new power plan. so one EXTRA step. I know it does not sound like much, but it is 50% slower...

Swap Drive Letters Between Two Bootable Drives

Aug 19, 2015

I upgraded my PC from W8.1 to W10, all went very smooth. I then worked on upgrading a laptop SSD drive to from W8.1 to W10 which I planned to then install in my wife's laptop. It was easier for me to upgrade the drive on my PC then swap the drives than take her laptop for awhile. Well...that created my problem. I had 2 drive C's on my PC.

I was able to boot quite a few times between the drives (swapping the primary drive in BIOS). But then W10 "fixed" my drives, and now I have only one C drive (the SSD laptop drive) and my original C drive is now F. My PC now only boots to the SSD C drive and I'm not able to use Disk Mgmt to swap the letters. Disconnecting the SSD drive stops the PC from booting because the original C drive is F.

How to either swap the drive letters or remove the SSD drive and somehow be able to rename the F drive to C.

Customization :: Desktop Screen On Laptop Changes The Desktop

Oct 25, 2015

I've got a Lenovo Desktop that was upgraded from 8.1 to 10 just after the release. I have a Toshiba Laptop which I upgraded from 7 to 10 about a month ago. Occasionally, the desktop screen for the desktop would be the default desktop image for the Toshiba laptop with "Toshiba" in the lower right corner.

Last night I performed a clean install of 10 on my Laptop. I went to bed and let the laptop work the updates as I was sleeping. When I woke up the Lenovo, again, the desktop showed the Toshiba default image rather than the one I had changed it to previously.

I had researched the issue but only after making this post is when I realized that all accounts under the same Microsoft ID will sync, including the desktop personalization. Not exactly a feature that I like. I'd like to turn that feature off.

Windows Menus Don't Open

Aug 1, 2015

Not sure where to post this, but none of the menu options open. The New Notification panel on the bottom right hand side doesn't open, and neither does the start menu in the bottom left hand side.

I am on an acer aspire laptop, and the brightness setting doesn't adjust anymore either.

I'm playing with the other icons in the bottom left hand corner, and none of them open up or do anything. Wireless icon, sound icon, one drive icon, or the notification icon. Searching the web and windows/Cortana does not do anything either. It doesn't even allow me to type anything.

I have tried restarting (which had to be done through the windows key + x shortcut) and shutting down/waiting/starting up again and neither have worked.

Selecting Areas And Menus Using Mousepad

Oct 2, 2015

Since installing Windows 10, I am having a lot of trouble clicking on areas and loading menu options using my mousepad. For example;

- When I go into the start menu, if I go to click on the Power option, it will not load the menu where I can choose to restart, shut down, etc. The menu will flash up for not even half a second and disappear.

- Another example: when signing up for an account on this website, I was prompted to select a photo from a group of photos for validity but when I clicked on a photo it would not acknowledge this. I was also unable to use the mousepad to click on the tick option to confirm I agree to the terms and conditions etc.The mousepad worked fine before I updated to Windows 10.
