cc333 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) I'd like to know, is it possible to use the old Display control panel, in its entirety, from XP? I have enabled the somewhat buggy, but usable classic theme, but it breaks the Personalization control panel, so I can't change the desktop icons, wallpaper or screensaver. Altenatively, can we somehow get the Windows 7 Personalization to work? Thanks! c Edited June 19, 2019 by Tripredacus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) There was an updated version of the Classic Theme hack that makes IE 11 (or 10) and Control Panel work EDIT: Here ya go: Edited June 19, 2019 by Jody Thornton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc333 Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) @Jody Thornton Thank you for that, but I think I've found a workaround! It's called Personalization10 by WinAero: It was meant for Windows 10 and it's user hostile settings app, but it seems to work quite well on my Highly modified Windows 8.1 install (as you can see, I have the classic theme fully enabled and configured to look like Windows 7's classic theme, but with full hardware acceleration!) I shall still investigate your suggestion, however, as it would be nice to get the native Win8.1 version working, if that's possible. c Edited June 19, 2019 by cc333 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
