Hi everyone,
I would like to say that the latest public build of Windows 10, build 9860, has not broken compatibility with build 9841, but the older themes won't have the new animation. Any one know how to get the new animation style ported over to older themes?

Try taking the AMap from the latest Win 10 Aero msstyles and adding it to your own msstyles using Restorator or Reshacker etc,this worked for me,my theme is a win 8 theme,you may get mixed results using an 8.1 theme.

You can delete the ribbon in the explorerframe.dll for now as a temporary solution.  here's the modified explorerframe.dll for x64 versions. Also a blank caption text .reg hack. *UPDATED, use with caution. There have been issues related to the modification. |

It's the one found in Windows/System32/ folder. But yeah I'm using the 64x edition. Sorry, should have mentioned that. All you have to do it open up your explorerframe.dll using reshack and delete under UFILE/EXPLORER_RIBBON the 1033 instance. Or you can send me your 32bit one and I can edit for you. |

Nice work, mind if I share with people so that they can use my themes on the latest build? EDIT: I've notice that this causes the ExplorerFrame.dll to become unregistered (e.g. trying to open any file from IE will result in "class not registered" error). Anyone know how to fix this? |

Seems like the issue has gotten worse and now everything on my PC is unregistered, I can't run anything at all now. I tried to get the dll file to register, but it keeps giving me an error. |

Are you sure you haven't done anything else or installed something else that may be doing this? I've had no issues of the sort. Seems fine on my end. |

Me too, same thing, a fresh install in VMware. Did you make the changes yourself using reshacker?
I just reverted to the old file to check, all seems fine. Did you replace your old .dll file? Did you back it up? If you need the original I can share it with you for x64.

don't think I can recover from this since I can't run anything and explorer keeps crashing, thanks anyways. I used the dll you provided and I did make a backup. After getting some errors, I switched back to the original, however it didn't solve my issue and that's when things got worse. |

So sorry to hear that mate. I'll keep trying with it on my end and see if I come across any issues. You didn't by chance change the SysWOW64 explorerframe.dll did you?

Just contacted Winaero, creator of Ribbon Disabler, he said he should have an update to Ribbon Disabler available before the RC version of Windows 10.
