true but my point is that it could be improved on maybe since it is opensource and all the taskbar and parts of openshell could probably be ported to it for a complete replacement of the taskbar and start menu.

It can't, the application was made with Windows 3.1 in mind, I tried running Calmira on modern versions of windows and it would only list 16-bit applications on the Calmira taskbar.

Who knows maybe the startisback project was some fiddeling with the calmira sourcecode cause many api calls are the same or similar to the existing ones we have today.

ʇǝǝๅ ftw Regular Member SCT sucks, get SCT instead Posts: 496 OS: Windows 10 1909 Theme: SCT	Calmira 95 works on win10 (kinda) Jan 3, 2020 7:21:16 GMT -8 Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Member Give Gift Back to Top Post by ʇǝǝๅ ftw on Jan 3, 2020 7:21:16 GMT -8 The problem is that Calmira is 16-bit and runs in a virtualized Win3.1 environment. Also, you would have to find someone that know Delphi.

kamuisuki: I think this winclassic.boards.net/thread/456/reversibly-enable-disable-classic-simple Apr 7, 2021 23:45:21 GMT -8

TechSalt: You can use that, however on 7 to enable the classic theme you can just use the personalization control panel item. Apr 8, 2021 4:52:43 GMT -8

Mina: and as well changing some icons Apr 8, 2021 12:59:07 GMT -8

anixx: You cannot use this on Windows 7. Apr 9, 2021 7:10:57 GMT -8

TechSalt: Has anyone ported the IE6 x64 to 10? There is an x64 IE6 on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. Apr 9, 2021 7:17:50 GMT -8

Mina: yeah, an os being out of support doesn't mean unusable Apr 11, 2021 14:03:33 GMT -8

TechSalt: Mina Can agree. Still using Windows 10 1903, no problems except i have to disable Windows Update everytime. Apr 11, 2021 21:39:59 GMT -8

anixx: No, you cannot use SCT or ClassicThemeTray in Win7. NO WAY! Only in Win 8.1 or Win 10. Not even in Win 8. Apr 12, 2021 8:39:04 GMT -8

anixx: Simply because there was no such memory handle in Windows 7. You simply cannot do it. Apr 12, 2021 8:40:00 GMT -8

Mina: oh sorry i thought you meant classic theme Apr 12, 2021 12:42:05 GMT -8

Mina: i mistaken it Apr 12, 2021 12:42:12 GMT -8

Mina: TechSalt at least there's a good pause updates option, and yeah, pretty agreeing that the only annoying thing is the darn automatic updates. Apr 12, 2021 12:48:31 GMT -8

TechSalt: Mina Well, i used to use that, but since the pause button expired for me i disable Windows Update now. Apr 12, 2021 21:37:14 GMT -8

ikigai: Does anyone have a way that i can add windows 98 icons to my pc? Apr 14, 2021 14:05:15 GMT -8

TechSalt: Either by resource hacking or using an icon pack (icon packs are not the most accurate thing tho.) Apr 14, 2021 21:06:02 GMT -8

Mina: TechSalt let me guess how you disable windows update: by disabling the service itself. correct? Apr 16, 2021 11:15:24 GMT -8

TechSalt: Mina Yes, i disable the service every boot up. Apr 17, 2021 0:38:03 GMT -8

Mina: well good Apr 17, 2021 13:42:03 GMT -8

Mina: i will do the same Apr 17, 2021 13:42:08 GMT -8
