Start10 overlaps custom start menu
Sunday, March 28, 2021 by objectful | Discussion: Skinning
I've been trying to transform Windows 10 into 7 and it is going really good. Most of the things are done and I just need to add a few touches to finish it. However, the start menu is bugging me the entire time. This is how it looks like:
In SkinStudio it looks fine but in the skin itself it looks like the attached image. Can anyone help? I don't want to use the preinstalled Windows 7 menu because it doesn't support full transparency, which I really need. Thanks.

It is made for Windows 10. I got it from a windows 10 - 7 transformation pack.

Could I ask the name of the "transformation pack"? The name of the software that applies it?

The link to it is in the description of it and I used WindowBlinds + Skin10 to apply the theme. The skin is in Step 9. Ignore the windowblinds crack, I used the official one. The theme file is in 9th Step / Stardock Windowblinds / Windows 7 Ultimate theme / Windowblind skin.

Sorry, never heard of Skin10, but evidently it is not compatible with Windowblinds, you need to use Stardock's Start10 instead.

That was old. Needed a hack for shutdown buttons to display and function right if i remember right. Somebody can correct if not true. Recalling from memory as i did a lot of crazy stuff long ago.

This means you are using a skin/theme that isn't made for Windows 10. Looks more like a Vista or 7 skin.
