    Classic Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000, XP, Vista taskbar for modern versions of Windows

    I've been going through the process of trying to make my Windows 11 laptop look like Windows XP for aesthetic purposes. As such, I installed RetroBar, Open Shell, WindowBlinds 11, and SoundPackager. So far, everything I've installed has been working as intended, except for WindowBlinds 11.

  • Classic-Start

    Renamed to NeoClassic-UI then renamed to Open-Shell - https://github.com/Open-Shell/Open-Shell-Menu

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • ExplorerPatcher

    This project aims to enhance the working environment on Windows

    Additionally, the Windows Explorer did not work at all before taking this screenshot—and apparently, I'm not the only one with this issue. The only reason why it's showing my File Explorer in the screenshot is because I installed ExplorerPatcher (recommended on the Stardock forums) and that somehow made it work, just without the window style. Another issue I found alongside this is even after I installed EP, the Control Panel doesn't show anything at all, and I can't even close the window.
