Agree with JCurie , yes we have finally have a post from Bradsams, but even though his post says he will answer questions, the most important question "When will WB 11 be ready" was not, although he did confirm WB 11 would come at some point. To know something will be coming, really does not do it for a lot of us.
The creators of UX Theme Patcher have released a couple of updates enabling the use of many Windows 10 themes alongside another popular start replacement program, allowing them to work fine with Windows 11. Just added another " Kinetik Tech Edition" and "Kinetik Aqua Edition" as my love of Dark skins and Electric Green Text is well known. Working Flawlessly on a windows 11 Enterprise Latest Build, fully updated. It was Stardock that got me into Skinning my system,
Am i wrong in thinking Skin Studio comes free with WB, i am sure i got it with mine . So it's not just us paying customers thrown under the bus, seems the Skinners who may rely on both programs to make some sort of living have been shat on from a high height too. WB was a very cool piece
That is the problem. It seems like loyal WB users like myself and many others judging by the comments, are being thrown under the Bus. Other theme creators are leaving WBs in there wake by creating working themes for Windows 11, more and more as the days go by, but we are told maybe it will be next year for a useable WB 11. This is damaging the brand and i for 1 am gutted by Stardocks apparent ignorance of us peeps who paid our money for Start 11 thinking WB 11 would follow righ
neone6. I love your work and have purchased dark skins in the past from you, if you can create the exact one i am using, (thought about how to word this correctly without giving offence as it's the last thing on my mind) in Green and not your original (just a preference) , like i said, i will be first in the Que with my Credit Card. Very sorry about coming upon your stolen work, you have my word it will not move further than my computer, if you need anything including the file
Hello neone6 I have just looked at your windowblind "Tron" and it it is similar but not the same, i would never share something i have not created myself, this came from a site dea
On my Win10 SSD with WB10, i use an older skin Stealth Drone which i have changed around with the colours, so now it is still very dark but i have changed the text colours and edges etc.. to Electric Green, so it pops. My desktop above is in blue which is not a favourite colour.It has a look and feel of what i had before with WB10. I seriously miss the Windowblinds ability to mess around with system colours, can not find a similar thing in Win11, any idea or any tips on changing the blue to G
Will the above do as it shows buttons which are skinned and has explorer Tabs, also skinned, this particular set up does not have Frames, but i do have another working theme , a Halloween one that does have skinned frames, but it is not my thing (more for Kids) as it has witches on brooms etc..
I keep getting an image size box as opposed to my posted image, my first image when entered had the dimensions added automatically, now when i link my new image the dimension boxes do not autofill size, and hence when posted do not work well just giving me a resize box that does not help Edit. If you click on the image portion of my last upload, it will show my desktop, sorry about the faf but it will show if clicked, it now shows buttons etc..
Next Attempt
What tabs and buttons would you like to see Basj. Internet Browser window tabs? What buttons would you like to see. Do you mean the explorer Buttons (minimize, maximize and close etc..)
Thanks Basj, that helped , so here goes
I have no more icons past the "Eye" for preview, i thought i was missing it but i am missing 3 more icons past the eye symbol as shown by image from Jafo. Is it a posting rule thing?
Neil Banfield I should point out that your solution is not the same as WB. It in fact will be missing one of the biggest things WB skins of
Some people develop/design Programs and others Pay those people and companies to do said job for them. If you read some of my other comments, you will see i have actually built up a similar thing to WB. I was told that there is no other product that works like WB on Win 11, for me and my Set up, i have been using other programs, a little bit from here and there
Never thought Stardock would treat us paying customers like Mushrooms. Keep us in the Dark Feed us on Sh*te. This has a knock on effect for the Skinners. I have purchased so many master skins over the years, love there work especially the dark skins, but i have Zero Motivation to spend another penny until WB11 is out, already feel duped for buying Start11, we were always told , you have to have Start 10/11 for Windowblinds to work correctly and i get that, so give us W
It is easily done without any other app. First find the icons you want to use, then right click each icon you want to replace, click properties, and look for the change icon, click it and browse for the icons you found earlier and apply them. Iconpackager does this in batches using a set of icons that usually match or are from a matching sets, so is much easier, if after you have applied a set of icons in Iconpackager, there is one or two you would prefer to change , follow the info above.</p
Hi bobj420. I am not admin or a staff member but can confirm for me at least IconPackager does work with no issues I've seen or come upon yet on Windows 11.
Windowblinds has been my go to customization program for many years, love it to bit's and have used it since XP days. I wanted to move to the next step and use Win11 but as there is no solid date for even a WB11 Beta, for the first time in years i have had to drop it and use other customization programs, it was not what i wanted so left numerous questions about WB11 release in the panning topic, were i thought i would at least get an answer from admin or a staff member, but only more
Totally agree with you JCurie . I only bought Start 11 as i thought WB11 was following right behind, got sick and tired of waiting for a reputable answer to when WB11 would even be in a beta stage.
I am fully aware of Start 11s capabilities over Start 10, but the free start replacement programs have similar functions, i am not interested in Curtains as it was always about Windowblinds for me, and that was the reason i had to buy Start 10 in the first place to make
Thankyou for the reply Basj. Thanks for confirming now i have deactivated the license and uninstalled Start 11, i can re install when and if a WB 11 actually comes out I understand Start 11 will work with Windows 11, but as i have already paid For Start 10, why would i need Start 11 as well without WB11. Windowblinds has always been my go to Program for changing the look and feel of of my Desktop, so had no choice but to purchase Start 10, as WB 10 will not work correc
After asking multiple times about the release of WB11 and getting nothing conclusive by way of an answer, i have now deactivated my Start 11 from my Windows 11 PC and installed a Free StartAllBack as this allows me to use either Skinpacks or other Themes for my Windows 11 machine. As a long time customer of Windowblinds , and the fact the we need Start11 to work correctly with any WB 11 release however distant , i feel the release of Start 11 without a WB 11 is useless as Windowblinds
