[@memstechtips]

Which Windows version do you think had the best taskbar?

[@Grid21]

I love this channel now that I have found it! Thanks so much for these awesome tips and videos! Finally, an actually useful technology channel.

[@memstechtips]

Thanks so much, Really appreciate that! 😀

Just installed both open shell and retrobar on 2 of my pcs, 1 on win10 and the other win11 Working great so far, love having the classic look back. Really quick to get setup too which is a big bonus. Thanks for letting us know about these! keep up the great work

[@memstechtips]

Great to hear and my pleasure! Which taskbar theme did you go with by the way?

[@UnknownEntity420]

@@memstechtips i ended up going with the vista aero theme for the taskbar, paired with the Midnight start menu (no pic, small icons, reduce glass colour). Absolutely love it

[@memstechtips]

@@UnknownEntity420 Awesome! I'm glad you found something you like.

Hope you enjoy!

Classic Shell works great for me to change the start menu

[@memstechtips]

I prefer to use Open Shell on Windows 11 specifically. Classic Shell worked fine on Windows 10 but I had some issues with it on Windows 11.

[@SilverSergeant]

@@memstechtips I use it on Win 11 Pro. No issues for me.

[@memstechtips]

Okay, that's great then. 😀

After all these years we’re back to Windows 3.1 and replacing the UI shell. What’s next, Midnight Commander?

[@memstechtips]

lol, you never know, it just might happen.

Nice Sir

Bro we are waiting for the complete barebone (core) version of unattended file. There are a lot of users who doesn't want windows defender as well. Please consider putting that in list

[@dorflonnigan4413]

is there a program that brings back the ribbon in file explorer for win 11?

[@memstechtips]

Yes, keep an eye on the channel, those videos are coming in the next week.

[@dorflonnigan4413]

@@memstechtips thank you

[@bazwillrun]

All i need to be able to do now is separate the sound and the network icons on the system tray...i mean , why MS, just why ?...

[@memstechtips]

Thank you! 🙂

[@methanoid]

Great video but I think I am finally happy with Win10 menus (well I use LTSC anyway!) but yeah Win11 is an abomination. These are very retro!

[@memstechtips]

True, the Windows 10 start menu and taskbar is good, I like it too. But the Windows 11 ones, not so much...

[@prajullas]

You should make a video on BCU ( Bulk Crap Uninstaller)

[@memstechtips]

Thanks, will think about it!

[@mr_hardy5329]

I like Windows 11 task bar and menu. Yeah probably i'm in minority.

[@HERRIE666]

100% me to

[@memstechtips]

We all have different tastes. It's not that I really hate the way that it looks, it's the fact that we need to use third-party software to modify it, like making the taskbar smaller for example.

[@djnes2k7]

I knew windows 11 was trash when I went to right click, and had to click on “more options” just to get to the 7zip options. A halfway decent OS would recognize after 2 or 3 times the things you normally right click for and ask to add it to the first few options…….. it’s the same when I want to add More videos to gom player. The option to add more to an already running player used to be the 2nd option when right clicking…….. nope you have to hit the “see more options” on the bottom…… thanks Microsoft

[@mkatakm]

Win 10 is my last anyway.

Now more than ever it's time to switch to Linux !!!

Downloading from other people sites can be dangerous, possible dangerous codes embedded. People are to trusting when following you tubers promoting software.

[@memstechtips]

Yes, completely true that there can be dangerous code in any software. However, the software in this video is completely open source and has a great reputation. In addition to that, this video is for educational and informational purposes only, no one is forced to follow the instructions in this video.

[@Chris.Wiley.]

That's why you try it out in a vm first before you commit it to your production system.😉

[@bazwillrun]

what, you mean more dangerous than all the spyware and bloat garbage Microsoft install on your PC ?
