Once again thank you for your hard work! Upgrading to Windows 11 just to try it out for a bit, especially after the new update. Any change you'll consider adding textglow support for windows 11? (If not that's okay thank you for all your hard work anyway!)

If you want to emulate win7, please use win10 instead of win11.
This feature itself is also not an official feature of this software, it just supports win10 for other reasons.
But if you use win11 22H2, text glow should work. This is because Microsoft changed the text rendering method after this.

Oh yeah for sure, Windows 10 is the best, just trying to get used to Windows 11 before support ends in 2025, was curious to see what I could do, here's an update with some help from the winclassic server

How about instead of textglow for Windows 11, an option for when Windows are maximized, the glass becomes opaque like in Windows Vista?

Isn't it possible to do that thru a custom theme? I believe i used one before for 7 which turned it opaque

Wow Aero10 works way better on 11 than I thought! However, I still refuse to update because of the change in live folders, making the Vista-8.1 style impossible to restore.

Btw you have 2 years of Windows 10 left, and given the slow Windows 11 adoption rate, I believe there's a chance MS may have to extend support like they did with XP. Not to mention there's still LTSC versions that will still get updates in the 2030s.

I will personally only "get used to" Windows 11 once I'm forced to, when programs stop supporting it. I already have updates frozen to keep my current mods intact. I don't see the point of giving up and trying to get used to 11 already.
