Explorer ( but for AIDA as well )
The printscreen with AIDA was just an example
Here is another printscreen with WSB
Have a look, please. Some letters at the end, are not visible

Here is the visual style

Thank you, 3am

I did step by step as you described, it works, i do the TEST with WSB, but after i reboot the PC, its white, again

Yes, excuse me
I was a bit confused
I don't understand what am I doing wrong. I replaced the color on the Explorer, navigation pane - left side
Now its grey, but after I reboot the PC, its white, again. Tried that many times

https://postimg.cc/QHxpVg6T

And one more think : all the fonts, in there, at the end, the latest letter doesent look right
Here is an example

https://postimg.cc/ZvnP1BK9

I can make a smaller font number, but it would look very small

Thank you
I'm a bit confused, because you have a lot of experience with this stuff, but the location you adviced, is wrong ( hard to believe )
https://postimg.cc/9zCfSvcd
That's the only location where I can replace this color

Could anyone help me, please ?
I can't find the location for the left ( navigation ) pane - fonts.
I always used some pdf instructions, for Windows 7, but a lot has changed, since Windows 10 ( I guess )

Thank you, in advance

I did as you say, 3am, but the same thing happent.
Is this maybe because of some incompatibility Win 10 - latest updates - WSB ?
I am using many programs, games, etc, and my CPU never reached 80 %
That's pretty weird. The WSB does not open, at all. It's only under Task Manager.
I will keep looking, thank you very much

LE : i have a second pc at home, I5, 8 GB DDR3, GTX 980 Ti, mainboard Gigabyte ( i don't know exactly which model ) and WSB it's running great
I didn't update the Windows on the second PC, since i installed Windows 10 ( about 8-9 months ago )

Hello everyone,
I wanted to use yestarday WSB but when i open it, the CPU load is about 70-80 %, the WSB doesen't open at all, it is under Task Manager, so i have to end task or reboot
Do you have any ideas how to fix this ?
I'm using Windows 10 Pro x64, build 10.0.14393 with latest updates
My PC specs are : I7 4790K / 16GBDDR3 /GA Z97X-UD5H /GTX 1080 / SSD 256 GB Samsung Pro
Thank you in advance, any advices are welcome

I'm using Windows 10 ( 13939 ) and i have some issues with the caption buttons and the taskbar, with the attached visual style
The caption buttons have a bigger gap between them, than on Windows 7 ( and they are a bit smaller )
The taskbar isn't grey, i can't read the letters on the minimized applications on the taskbar
Would you please tell me how to fix those ?
I already did as Mr. Grim explained here
https://www.vistastylebuilder.com/forum/index.php?topic=2240.msg13621#msg13621
The Start Menu doesen't bother me at all, but if i could find a way to change the background color, would be great
Thank you in advance, any advices are welcome

LE : isnt here the right location for the taskbar height ?

Here is a printscreen with the taskbar / browser minimized

I wish i could add something like this, for the caption buttons.
Anyone knows how to do that, please ?
Thank you

I tried again to modify it, it looks like this now :
http://www.filedropper.com/dwmwindowclosebuttonactiveimage

I still use this visual style but it's hard to understand how is it possible to edit the red button ( close button ) to have a " straight X ??
Here is an attached image how it looks now to me
The X is crooked

Hello,
I'm using a background for my Windows Explorer, i did modify it a bit today, but i wonder if it's possible to make those white lines ( 1 pixel ) more tinier than they are now.
Here is the image :
Location : Explorer & shell > Explorer > Items View > Items View
Thank you

Thank you

Thanks
But the location for buttons ( maximize / minimize / close ) are not in the same location, anymore

Thank you.
But how did you fix that ? I tried for more than 2 hours.
I ask you because i want to import / change / some other parts from the Windows 7 visual style, to the Windows 10 one ( i guess, taskbar it's impossible, because under Windows 7 i made it very very tinny )
Or maybe is my WSB version ( 1.5.0.0 ) not compatible with Windows 10 ?

I'm using a new OS X theme for Windows 10, but i can't import some parts from the OSX visual style i have on Windows 7
But it's says " error testing MsStyles file - There was an error applying the Test MsStyles file, this usually signals an error in the MsStyles file "
Could you please help me ?
Here are the 2 themes
OSX visual style for Win 10                                  http://www.filedropper.com/elcapitan
OSX visual style for Win 7                                    http://www.filedropper.com/snowleopard   
I tried only the caption buttons ( close )

I would give it a try with my visual style for Windows 7 on Windows 10
If i cannot use it, i hope i can find one for Windows 8 / 8.1 / and use it under Windows 10

Hello
I want to ask you about the style i'm using now on Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Could i use that for Windows 10, too ?
Thank you

Maybe the visual style - green button, was not square before, too, but i didn't notice.
I will try to modify that with Gimp.
There are two minimize buttons locations. Active and inactive, and in both of them there are 4 menus as well : normal, hot, pressed, disabled
Do i have to modify all of them ?

Thank you so much, 3am
I'd really like to know what images did you export / import / replaced
As i said, those buttons i find very very hard to modify. Now i will search on Youtube some videos about how to modify this part of visual style
The green button is not square / quadrat / like the red and the orange one.
http://postimg.org/image/5ydxfboo7/

I would replace the glyphs images, but i'm not sure what glyphs images to export and to import
Those buttons are the most difficult part of a visual style, i guess

Do i have to modify all those ???

Actually, i just made a test when i took the printscreen.
I mean, i went to : Control Panel / Personalization / Windows Color / Advanced Appearance settings / Captain buttons / and there i made the buttons a number bigger.
And then i made the printscreen.
As you can see in the first post on this thread, the buttons look ugly
I would try to modify them with Vista Style Builder, but i'm not good at Photoshop / Gimp / so it will take hours to modify those buttons, and i'm not sure if they will look better after i modify them.
3am, you said " Try replacing all of your 120dpi and 144dpi glyph images with your 96dpi glyph images "
You think they will look better / bigger, if i try this ?
How do i replace them ?
Thanks

Nobody can't advice me, guys ?
I just want to know how the buttons will look like, if i modify them ( make them a bit bigger ) with Vista Style Builder.
Will they look the same like in the image attached in the first post ?
Thank you

Hello
I upgraded my monitor, from 27" 1920x1080 to 32" 2560x1440
The visual style i use it looks great, except the close / restore / minimize buttons. They are too small now.
So i tried to modify them from the Windows settings, but they look worse ( see attached image, please )
http://postimg.org/image/8xab6bx8l/
My question is : if i try to modify ( make them bigger ) with the software Windows Style Builder, do i have a chance to make those buttons to look better ?!
Thank you

I saved the link, thanks
Offtopic : i was able to modify the close / restore / minimize buttons, but they looks somehow rounded, on the corners.
It's very difficult to modify them, to look 100 % square
Would you give me some tips how to do that, please ? Is it possible, at all ?

Thank you very much

Thanks, job done. What about the fonts / colors / on same thing ?

I found a OS X visual style on DeviantArt, it's a nice theme, i tried it. When i open some application ( Mozilla ) it looks like this, on the taskbar :
http://postimg.org/image/3utkztq6x/

When i'm using my own OS X theme, it looks like this :
http://postimg.org/image/a1jlz2l5r/
How could i change the grey color into blue, like the other one ?
Thank you

no .theme file?

I fixed it, thank you

I'm using an older visual style, i did modify it in the last months, and i don't know why, but it does not appear on right click - desktop / personalize, but the theme is working
Here is the style :  http://www.fileswap.com/dl/0wmlgA4h3Q/SL_test.rar.html
And here is the image with right click - desktop / personalize
I wanted to use this theme on my second laptop, same Windows 7 x64, i already installed Universal Theme Patcher, but as i said, i can't see it on right click - desktop / personalize, same happent on the desktop pc

Can i add the option semibold, for Arimo ?
Thank you
http://postimg.org/image/636dd0ihp/

I tried but is very hard to make those lines tiny
Thank you, anyway

Thank you, 3am. It looks good, but the black lines are too bold.
What's your photo editor for WSB ?
LE : something like this

http://postimg.org/image/s0ym71ord/

After a long time, i did it, and the buttons minimize / restore / close / are squared 
But i wish those lines - / + / x / ( when you ONLY move the mouse over the buttons ) should be more darker / black.
What's the best color for that ? Grey ? Black ?
And, on Windows & Caption Buttons > Aero > DWM Window > Controls > Captions > Window >   where exactly ? There are more expanded options.
Thank you
Here is my visual style

http://www.fileswap.com/dl/TsIKOlP5EH/

I do not have "controls" there, after DWM Window
Have a look, please
http://postimg.org/image/feqmxrl17/

I wonder if there is a way to change the minimize / restore / close buttons
The visual styles i have are OS X. I searched everywhere but couldn't find how to change them. They look like in the image nr 1 ( round )
And i would like to have them like in the image nr 2 ( square )
Would you help me with some advices, please ?
Thank you so much
