I'm using a theme for Windowblinds 11 based on windows 7, it's the SimplexDesigns's Aero 11, modified to have the windows 7 reflection. With the help of this forum, I've managed to replace a lot of features to make windows 10 really feel like home to someone like me who refuses to give up the windows 7 old ui, so thanks for that! The thing is, windowblinds is great for titlebars, but it sucks to skin the taskbar. The skin editor for it have thumbnail preview editing, but it just does not work. So that's an exemple. Before using windowblinds I always used StartIsback, but a combination of the two just completely breaks the taskbar. I've heard that the programs works in oposite ways, thus they break each other, but all places I searched for (Stardock and startisback forums) say the same thing, mostly, people from the stardock forum gets mad at people trying to find a way of using startisback, and startisback forum just say that it's windowblind's fault and there is nothing they can do. I love both programs and I just want to use them together to get the most of them. Is there anyway to make this possible?

I tried using start11 but the search mechanism is basically unusable, it's plain dumb, refuses to find even windows settings, so I went with open shell. The combination of the two works perfectly, never interfered with each other. |

Do you have a download link for windowblinds 10? Also, my license is bought from steam, so I'm not sure how to properly activate it. |
