This has nothing to do with this thread. It has more to do with it then plenty of these garbage posts Martin Fuchs the developer of ROS EXPLORER who got fired by the corrupt reactos leadership in 2008 nowadays u can still see his work is untouched they left the gui to die unless we find mr Fuchs and ask him to help us with the taskbar he made we will be in the dark he has key understanding of how taskbar works Again, NONE of that has anything to do with this thread. |

How did you get the title bar and close maximise minimise buttons to look like this on Windows 10? Thanks.

Heh, I just logged in and saw your comment just now. But to answer your question: I'm using classic theme. Nothing fancy tbh.

Thanks. I've been trying to find a good up-to-date tutorial on how to get this but I've had no luck so far. Could you point me in the right direction please?

Stumbled upon a much better option:  If you untick this option in WatchCat, it'll force the desktop icon's to use a colour background. Why would you want to do this over Iconoid/D-Color XP? Both of those programs limit you to what colour you can use by only allowed from a small selection. With WatchCat, you can select any colour, as long as it's the colour background you use with the theme you're using. Not only that, but Iconoid is too agressive in how it hooks into Explorer, whilst D-Color has a habit of turning itself off randomly. WC seems to be more stable and far more flexible.  In other words: Change the "Desktop" colour to whatever you want, and WatchCat will set that as your desktop icon font background. It's restoring it to the way it used to be in Windows 9x/2000. |

Hi! your desktops look pretty amazing congrats! By the way i tried to use both D-Color XP and WatchCat and i couldn't accomplish any results, my desktop still shows icons with white plain letters w/ no shadows on them and no background color, just transparent.
I'm using Windows 10 Home Single Language, Classic Theme, and ROS Taskbar.
Sometimes my icons show some shadows but then they disappear again (I have all visual effects disabled so that's pretty weird)
Did anyone have a similar problem? Were you able to resolve it?
Thankyou!
