Hello, I've been using Windows Classic Theme on Win 7 for years, and I'm about to start using Windows 10. Can you please refer me to the *most updated* download-page (including any possible tweaks) and guide? I've read somewhere there's an issue with Windows Explorer's context-menu. Is that still valid? Are there any other known-issues? Do you know if QTTabBar should work properly? Thank you. I'd appreciate your help.

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

There is no download page or guide, just a collection of programs scattered everywhere on the forum. This forum isn't as advanced as other forums.
QTTabBar should work fine, it's only a theme.
And that's about it, unless if you want your desktop to look even more classic.

Yep, there's no better solution. That's literally the only solution.

Not meant for advertising, but you should watch Endermanch's video of the classic theme for Windows 10 as a starting point. It also includes a classic taskbar.

@techsalt,
I wasn't notified of your message.
Thank you. I've watched that video and it's indeed helpful.
