Show HN: My small program from 2007 that gave Internet Explorer tabs
> I wonder why it's less of a thing now... or is it because there isn't as much need for such mods?
I think the popularity of reskinning Windows is because (especially since Windows Vista and Windows 8) the OS is not hideous-by-default.
EDIT: Oh, apparently the main way to patch UxTheme.dll stopped working since the Creators Update: https://github.com/riverar/uxstyle - though I'm sure Stardock's approach still works.

[OC] I made a program for Windows which lets you create sticky preview thumbnails
This was mostly a project for fun, to dive into CsWin32 - a PInvoke source generator as well to fiddle around with the DWM API.

Change Secondary screen rotation using CMD
If you haven't seen the CsWin32 project, you can use it to generate all your bindings as well. It generates the raw extern bindings, and then friendly wrappers for C# (where possible) that also work really well with PowerShell.

Hello. Can someone please give me some fun and cool projects for powrshell? Thank you.
If you're looking for something different, try out writing windows programs using Win32 via CsWin32. You can generate a DLL that you Add-Type into PowerShell that lets you access all of Win32.

PInvoke.net: the interop wiki
Also worth mentioning is this C# source generator for generating P/Invoke methods for win32 APIs: https://github.com/microsoft/CsWin32

WPF Roadmap 2023
Idk what all the hubub is about FolderBrowserDialog, it's pretty easy to make the Win32 calls (you can even code generate the interop calls).

C# to C Struct
You could try this to auto-generate it.

A quick Google Search netted the following project (https://github.com/microsoft/CsWin32). Looks like my evening is gone.

Fixing my BF1942 woes with Win32 APIs
I tried out both TerraFX.Interop.Windows and CsWin32, ultimately settling on the latter. CsWin32 was a little less intimidating as the API is generated based on strings in a text file rather than containing everything at once. Also I like jumping to definition of types to read more and explore APIs etc and doing that to one of the types in the TerraFX library crashed Visual Studio. That's more of a VS problem than a TerraFX library but still - CsWin32 would work great for what I'm doing.
