Start 11 Taskbarskin not possible

Friday, February 17, 2023 by RaaGaan | Discussion: Start Menu Products

Hey, i tryed different stuff, to get a Vista Styled Taskbar. But even with a PNG that is under Black and upper bright, i get a plain grey taskbar. I wanna have this Windows Vista look. But it dont work. - Before you wink me to Windowblinds, yes i got it, but it crashes m PC after sleepmode. Also it dont handle the new windows 11 Explorer, so please dont answere with this. I dont like it. - Just make it possible to give this Windows 11 a Vistalike Taskbar.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. I think it can be done, you just need to create png file that is long and wide enough for your entire taskbar. For example if your taskbar is at size 1920x80 pixel, you will need to create a png file that big. But, once you apply that file, you can not resize your taskbar, I believe, Start11 do not have engine to stretch/compress your graphics like Windowblinds does. Dual monitor with different taskbar size will also not work.

Thanks

And, you can post your vista taskbar here so I can see what is wrong with it.

I just realiced the Problem, brother, you helped me a lot. - It was simple! I was running my Resolution on 1080P, cause the taskbar was 1920. Was thought it fit. But i need to get 4K for windows. If not, it dosent work.
