sam13484 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Re: the toolbar under explorer (not internet explorer)Using Vista, when you switch to Classic theme and set for each folder to open a new window, you still see the old Vista navigation buttons (greyed) out, at the top of each window. Has anyone figured out a way to remove them and to get a real Classic Windows look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sp00f Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 There is a reg tweak to do this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam13484 Posted October 14, 2007 Author Share Posted October 14, 2007 Can you please post the Registry tweak that will do this? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meh11 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Are you talking about the File, Edit, View, etc menus? Folder Options ==> View Tab ==> Always show menus (tick this). Nothing much else.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam13484 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 The registry patches did not work. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding. I was talking about the tool bar in Windows Explorer, above the menu bar, the one with the round back and forward buttons, and with the search window. Switching to classic theme leaves those buttons greyed out. I'd like to know how to remove them, to achieve the real classic windows look. Thanks.

NoNameNeeded Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 This was possible in Longhorn by switching to classic explorer mode using gpedit.msc but I don't think that this tweak works anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
