CenterTaskbar VS SecureUxTheme

GitHub - mdhiggins/CenterTaskbar: Center Windows Taskbar Icons

Note this is a Pro feature so after 30 days you'll need a license, you can get Steam keys for about $15. If you also want to center your taskbar icons you can either use TaskBarX: https://github.com/ChrisAnd1998/TaskbarX or CenterTaskbar: https://github.com/mdhiggins/CenterTaskbar. Note both of these conflict with StartIsBack if you use that.

None of it is user friendly, but if you can follow directions you can be up and running in 30 minutes. I recommend SecureUxTheme which patches the necessary files in memory.

The last discussion of dark theme in this sub was like 6-7 years ago, so I wonder if anyone use it now. I found two option for the installer 1. SecureUXTheme and 2. UltraUXThemePatcher, but for the theme it self I haven't found what I'm looking for which is dark and minimal theme.

Instead of UXThemePatcher, you should use SecureUXTheme.

Hard to explain, been happening since today after I installed a few apps, namely Ear Trumpet from Microsoft Store, tried installing and using WindowBlinds from a YouTube QoL recommendations video here and here but uninstalled after it didn't work, as well as Black In Black / BIB here + UltraUXThemePatcher + SecureUXTheme to try and get BIB to work (which it didn't), and finally Twinkle Tray to adjust desktop brightness like you can on laptops. My best guess is the WindowBlinds app fucking something up, or Twinkle Tray turning off my screen when it goes to black mode, seemingly coming back on when I press my keyboard or mouse, and then freezing and accepting no responses.

Better off using SecureUXTheme.

Incidentally, I use said SecureUxTheme patcher to solve this problem: https://github.com/namazso/SecureUxTheme.

Look for SecureUXTheme, which is compatible with secure boot.
