I've recently found a github repo that allows to enable classic windows switcher in the latest Win11 versions, but it seems it doesn't work well with SAB. Once I enable Windhawk mod from that repo and restart explorer, SAB taskbar stops working (while classic window switcher works normally), which is quite unfortunate. I wonder what's the reason behind it, and if it'd be somehow possible to fix; or maybe - to actually implement this as a feature in SAB to choose between the two windows switcher, that could be so cool to have! @Tihiy would it be technically possible to implement?

What a fantastic feature, thank you! @Tihiy is there any chance you can assign a keyboard shortcut to tab duplication, like ctrl+shift+d or else? I don't recall this hotkey being used in file explorer.

Yes, but you must do it manually.

They never will, because legacy start menus were not designed with Metro apps in mind, because they were not existing back then. Windows 8 was the first one to support that afaik, and SAB does not use it as its base for the SAB Start Menu if I'm not mistaken.

Hello, I'd like to suggest a cool idea from OpenShell - customize start button actions: That way we can trigger multiple start menus or even other files, which opens a ton of cool possibilities.

Why not just remove objects at the top (Home, Gallery and OneDrive) and pin OneDrive to either Quick Access space or the one at the bottom?

Hi, I'd like to suggest an upgrade for links/custom toolbars. I've thought of 2 ideas: 1. Hide icons so the text is shown only: 2. Refresh file selection, as it looks very outdated in comparison to tasks highlight: \ I know that probably barely anyone uses those, but these can be really useful if used with custom context menus. Here's one of the examples I've been working on lately:

@Uiti P. Uszer Open-Shell barely uses any cpu/ram, you can keep using both w/out problems, I do too. Let dev focus on adding new functions and fixing bugs rather than enabling what exist already.

It's definitely not a Win11 thing, can u record a screen while this happens?

@Tihiy is there a way I can modify default msstyles used with SAB? I don't see it in SAB folder at all, and I want to modify running indicators.

IMO it sounds like that music software is designed for Win11 taskbar only, which would need to be fixed on the app side. It'd be valuable to check if it also works on Win10.

@Tihiy one more thing - I've noticed that toggling Action center icon visibility doesn't actually change the SysTrayActionCenter value in registry, because of that I can't disable that icon when deploying SAB and its config through script for example. It doesn't change the icon visibility either when I change the value directly in registry.

@Tihiy I don't know if that's a bug or something you've changed (as I didn't noticed that in release notes), but changing tray icons to show Windows 11 flyouts now allows to show those flyouts without merging all the system tray icon like in current Windows 11 taskbar, but it's a fantastic change and I thank you very much for that! AFAIR it wasn't working like that before in older versions, it was still merging all system tray icons into one icon like on Win11 right?

I can still see the bug while hiding taskbar with keyboard shortcut (win+alt+t), it doesn't actually hide it when dynamic transparency is enabled. It works when app is maximized (which stops taskbar from being transparent). EDIT: I've just noticed that keeping dynamic transparency and hiding the taskbar itself when window is maximized, it starts to show taskbar again when un-maximizng a window, which is actually a cool feature (although unintended I guess) on its own, as in - hiding taskbar when non-maximized or maximized window touches the top edge of the screen, and showing it again when no window touches the top edge of the screen.

Doesn't it work only for Windows 11 taskbar?
