That's odd, I uploaded my manifest file just to make sure so try it with that one maybe. Also did you reboot after making the change in the registry? firefox.exe.manifest

Oh sure no problem! 1: - Go to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion - Make a new DWORD value there called PreferExternalManifest and give it the decimal value 1 - Reboot your system 2: - Go to your Firefox folder and create a text file with the name firefox.exe.manifest - Add the following content into the file and save: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="*" name="Firefox" type="win32" /> <description>Firefox</description> <dependency> <dependentAssembly> <assemblyIdentity type="win32" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorArchitecture="*" publicKeyToken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*" /> </dependentAssembly> </dependency> <ms_asmv3:trustInfo xmlns:ms_asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> <ms_asmv3:security> <ms_asmv3:requestedPrivileges> <ms_asmv3:requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false" /> </ms_asmv3:requestedPrivileges> </ms_asmv3:security> </ms_asmv3:trustInfo> <ms_asmv3:application xmlns:ms_asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> <ms_asmv3:windowsSettings xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2005/WindowsSettings"> <dpiAware>True/PM</dpiAware> <dpiAwareness xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">PerMonitorV2,PerMonitor</dpiAwareness> </ms_asmv3:windowsSettings> </ms_asmv3:application> <compatibility xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:compatibility.v1"> <application> <supportedOS Id="{1f676c76-80e1-4239-95bb-83d0f6d0da78}"/> <supportedOS Id="{4a2f28e3-53b9-4441-ba9c-d69d4a4a6e38}"/> <supportedOS Id="{35138b9a-5d96-4fbd-8e2d-a2440225f93a}"/> </application> </compatibility> </assembly> - Start Firefox normally and you should have glass on the tool-bar and fixed navigation buttons All this basically makes Firefox "forget" that it has a Windows 10 UI and makes it load the Windows 7 UI instead.

I just wanted to say that Firefox 68 still works fine with Glass8 and even with Hardware Acceleration and WebRenderer enabled by using the manifest trick instead of UserChrome.css code.

Hmm all I can suggest is try WinAeroTweaker to shrink the titlebar-size and also the size of the titlebar-font, that should shrink the buttons down.

That's odd, can you provide a screenshot of how your buttons look? Also just to avoid confusion in the future since I saw you mixing things up: Theme Atlas: .png and .layout files used by AeroGlass for its own theming engine Custom Themes: .msstyle files for use with Windows' theming engine, the Vista theme you downloaded seems to be a custom theme, not a theme atlas!

Hmm this is a long-shot but you do use OldNewExplorer right? Make sure that "Use alternate navigation buttons style" is NOT checked in its options!

Oh I wasn't aware that CustomizerGod even had that option, very handy!

Huh good to know I'm still on 1809, how did you end up editing them yourself? And great job, yeah the Vista UX was great!

Sorry for the late reply, the forum didn't notify me of your post till now somehow. That's awesome, I'll fire up my VM and see if it affects anything I use.

CustomizerGod can do it.

Same here

Yeah I never got that either, would you know any logical reason why browsers do that? I thought about that before and came to no conclusion that made any sense but then again I'm not a dev.

I'm using the external manifest way to get my glass back in FF but I can chime-in.

@Tihiy I have a question, I'm testing Windows 10 Build 1903 in a VM at the moment and love the new default-look of the Windows Taskbar when I use the new native Bright theme. The problem is, once I use a custom-theme with UltraUX ThemePatcher, StartIsBack automatically uses the taskbar of the custom-theme with no chance to use the default Windows 10 taskbar again. I tried to work around this by copying the default Windows 10 aero.msstyles into the Styles folder of StartIsBack, then I could select a "aero" theme for the Taskbar but it was still only the Taskbar of the custom-theme installed via UltraUX ThemePatcher. Is there any chance of StartIsBack using the default Windows 10 taskbar when using a custom-theme or is this impossible?

Okay that makes sense as intended behavior I suppose. I always keep the list empty and added a logo there for customization purposes but that was an easy "fix" on my end now. I simply pinned a shortcut with an empty icon and ALT+255 as the name

I just upgraded from 2.7.2 to 2.8.5, does anyone else have the problem that "All Programs" now opens automatically whenever the Start Menu is opened?

I see, well I'm happy enough, the random Steam and other Aero Peek crashes are fixed for me!

Nice, is there a changelog? the one on the website doesn't include 1.5.1.1 yet but so far it works fine

Alright thank you!

Thanks!

I see, where should I upload them to? I noticed the same DWM crashes happening when I ALT+TAB with PS4 Remote Play active. I'll use the beta version temporarily on the weekend as I do not want to run it permanently because of the watermark and debug-window. Updating the drivers didn't help.

So what would you do to disable it, setting MaterialOpacity to 0?

Thank you very much for all this, one thing less to worry about when updating Firefox

Thanks, I will next update! So I just change the Registry Key and then copy the entire content to a file called firefox.exe.manifest right?

Yeah same here! Is there any way to make firefox.exe use an external .exe.manifest file or do we really have to edit the .exe each update?
