This is the best customisation software I have ever seen. The level of effort and pure dedication to make this feel.. actually BE windows 7 is incredible. I hope to see this project continue.
Bro, this project was freaking amazing on it's first day, and it keeps getting better! I'm glad I've been supporting it from the start, and I'll continue doing so! I'm making a new video about this version soon, you can be sure about it!
This project is great for people who still want the nostalgia of Windows 7. I have had it installed since the first version came out. Keep the updates coming, and thanks for bringing us this great transformation.
this project is amazing, i have been using it since v3 and it always amazed me! now that V4 released it's even better and more accurate! and a thing, the first hours it worked just fine but then i reinstalled it because i had the standard version and wanted to try the full one, but for some reason the aero was a glitchy, it was only blue and i couldn't change the color, and whenever i opened an app the taskbar changed color and if i would hover on it it would change color where my cursor is. and an other thing, the shutdown screen (the windows 7 one) works just fine, but i have the windows 10 login screen still. happy new year!
I LOVE Windows 7 look and Windows 11 look. Windows 10 looks okay. I guess that I'm a HUGE fan of blue, turquoise, and aquamarine, plus Aero and/or glass themes!
the default programs section of the control panel doesnt seem to work when i click on the settings inside of it besides autoplay settings when using the windows 7 theme, but besides that this is amazing :D thanks for putting so much effort and time into this!! its really turned out so good and i cant wait to see what you have in store for the next version!!
I'd love to use this but... when I DID use it (back in v3,) I kept getting popups from windhawk while using it telling me mod tasks are in progress. Really annoying. There must be some way to disable this, right?
Generally, that should only happen occasionally (eg when new symbols are being downloaded). Most of the time it should not occur. However, if it is frequently happening, follow these steps to reduce it: 1. Run regedit 2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Windhawk\Settings 3. Open ModTasksDialogDelay 4. Set it to 59000 decimal. You might have to reboot afterwards for the changes to take effect. This will make the dialog only show up if mod tasks are taking more than 60 seconds to complete.
Where can i find all the improvements you made for windows 11, also sometimes the custom windows 7 boot screen wont appear it just appears as the regular windows version boot screen and login screen sometimes the ctrl alt delete command prompt pops up but it doesnt fix it long-term
Ive been using this for about half a year now and i love it. Ive encountered a couple issues with 4.0 tho. First the login screen just sometimes breaks and i have to put my laptop in sleep mode to fix it Also on the control panel where the settings for R8P should be it just says Start Menu and whenever i click on it it gives an error message But yeah, besides that its a awesome program and i love it
Revert8Plus v4 already supports all languages that Windows does. If you have found a translation/localisation issue, please tell me what language you are using and where the issue is.
Hello, I am using Revert8Plus in Japanese. In Japanese Windows, the fonts used are Meiryo in 7, Meiryo UI in 8, and Yu Gothic UI in 10 and 11. I can change the title bar and dialogs to Meiryo font by modifying the registry, but the parts restored by Revert8Plus, such as parts of Explorer, taskbar, and restored control panel, are displayed in Meiryo UI used in 8 and cannot be changed. Is there a way to solve this? It's a small point, but I would appreciate your help.
honestly this is amazing tbh also idk if this is an issue on my end but for some reason the windows 7 icon is bigger then the taskbar, other then that everything works perfectly
Lovely work! i'm very impressed.. however i'm running into a few issues.. first of all when i right click on the desktop and "Screen Settings" it shows me an error. i can't find the revert8plus customization tab that you shown in the video....? the gadget tab is completally missing after i reinstalled once.. and before the reinstall they weren't working properly (the clock one wouldn't appear at all, some gadgets had missing or pink textures..) and also some probs with the setup.. when i click "modify" or "repair" it just won't do anything. that's pretty strange.. i really love this project with my heart, i hate win11 and kinda win10 asthetic, windows 7's always has been my favorite and it's a dream coming true importing that look into modern windows. thank you a lot for making this!
Heya, just had a few quick questions: The transformation runs perfectly, though I can't seem to find the Revert8 Settings where they were shown in the video, and can't seem to get the boot screens to work, any tips would be greatly appreciated :)
how do you fix the bug where the taskbar restarts randomly even at idle and breaks a little on 24h2? the taskbar works but some of the theme on the taskbar goes away (the translucency is there but not for pinned programs) and a small portion of the original start button is seen again (it happens even if nothing is running)?
how well does this work on windows 11, does it have all the taskbar icons, like volume, network, and battery? Also have you changed it so the other taskbar icons are also larger like in Windows 7? i wanna ask because i wanna try installing
It generally works fine on W11, although you may need to enable the tray icons from the tray icon customisation menu, as Microsoft has disabled them all by default in W11 22H2 and 23H2.
@@teknixstuff i have a problem, whenever i download r8p from github and choose either standard or full none of them works all it does is change the wallpaper and sounds
I gotta say that it looks a lot more stable now, although I might as well try it first on a virtual machine because I don't feel like installing it first on my host machine, as it might break my system if I do that.
Good job, but taskbar clock does not show at all, system hangs on requesting system version, and c++ error periodically appears. Clear Windows 11 Pro 23H2
Yeah, same problem to me. I found one more bug. If you right click on Windows button and choise "Properties" option you will have endless background loading with 20% CPU loading Antimalware Services
Excellent. Edit: I install this revert8 edition in a VM with Windows 10 21H2 IoT LTSC and the result is fantastic!!. Very well done!. In my main machine I have Windows 10 22h2 home edition, I Wonder if the updates do not break or something the install if I install in this version. Thanks in advance.
Does the theme retain the win10 news and interest popup located to the far right on the win10 taskbar and also the search window apps news popup on the far left? If not can you re-enable them in a future version?
I just installed it on my Windows 11 after having removed all earlier customization but it still looks like Windows 11 to me. Am I doing something wrong? It went through the process and the stages of transforming Windows but I came back to the regular Windows 11 look. The only thing that's changed is the wallpaper, which is now the Windows 7 wallpaper.
Try running these commands from admin cmd and see if that fixes it: net stop windhawk rd /s /q C:\ProgramData\Windhawk mklink /D C:\ProgramData\Windhawk C:\Windows\Revert8Plus net start Windhawk
@@teknixstuff It did eventually get installed correctly after having force-removed earlier customization programs and the new version of R8P looks amazing on my computer, so happy it's fully compatible with Windows 11! You did an awesome job on this one! 🤩😍👏
@@teknixstuff Facing the same issue on windows 10 clean install, all updated etc, sadly 0 changes after multiple installation attempts, the commands doesn't make it work either, althought it says the Revert8Plus service was started successfully, do you have any idea to help me fix it?
Help! I have got an error: This version of Revert 8 Plus does not support this version of Windows (build 22635). Supported versions: Windows 10 1607-22H2 (Build 14393-19045 ) Windows 11 21 H2-24H2 (Build 22000-26100 )
On v3 there was a bug, where if you installed it, then, later deciding you didnt like it, uninstalling it, the windows 7 icons would remain (windows 10)
im having a little problem with the taskbar, its completely transparent no matter how much i change the color intensity :( is there a way to fix that? + the start menu is transparent too
Does the Revert8Plus really makes Windows 11 title bar buttons that big? or is there a way to fix that? I'm on Windows 11 24H2 and im considering to install this, but if its like in the video with the big broad titlebar and buttons then maybe i will wait until it gets updated further. Looks nice for windows 10 though
@@teknixstuff Hi, i decided to try it anyways, but the problem im facing is the r8p.exe is not launching, desktop just flickers (like refresh desktop) and nothing happens.
I've used it so far and it has been amazing. I have a question though, I'm not sure if it's my computer or the program. So everything works great but everytime I would touch my volume keys, the language input would come up or after a while it'll just come up and "freeze" the screen, I couldn't even access the the task bar. I uninstalled it for now from another user account. This also happened when I used V4 beta when I was on Windows 11 22h2 but now on 24h2. Is the language input appearing randomly a product of my laptop or the program itself? Is there a way to stop this? I really appreciate all you do though, this project is great.
The language input is known to be buggy on W11, as the shell expects the W10 one, but gets the W11 one, and so ends up calling the wrong functions. I am working on a solution to it.
uh oh! im having another problem, i installed this on a new computer but when i tried to open explorer.exe it would instead restart instead of opening, any help or..??
Thank You your work. Happy new year! I have a question: Do you support languages other than English? For example: Hungarian Thank you in advance for your reply.
Alright so after downloading it isn't working correctly. The windows logo in the corner doesn't change, the wifi menu doesn't change, This seems broken compared to 3.4 is something wrong?
The wifi menu is only available when performing a full installation. (not standard). v3.x always performed a full installation and had no standard installation option available. The windows logo should change though. It might help if you could send me a screenshot of the problem with that, either via email or discord.
@@teknixstuffI solved the issue. It’s that if you have start is back already you need to remove that too. I tried that after seeing your comment somewhere else. I think it might be useful to inform people who are upgrading from the old version to also delete start is back. Otherwise we’re all good. Although one more issue is that when I right click on the start menu and click properties to add downloads as an option it does nothing. Is there any other way to access that menu to change what options show up in start menu?
Generally it only takes a few MB of RAM per process. It generally has very little effect on performance on Windows 10, while on Windows 11 it generally improves performance since it avoids loading most of W11's XAML Shell.
Generally, it has little to no effect on performance with W10, while it can bring significant improvements to performance on W11 in some cases. The dark mode is still rather unfinished though, and currently only affects certain buttons, and not other controls yet.
It's been a while since I ran this on my Windows 11 but this video about the new version seems very promising so I'm thinking of giving it another go. But I already have DMWBlurGlass installed, I can't remember if I have to un-install that in order to install this new version of Revert8Plus?
Yes, you should uninstall DWMBlurGlass, StartIsBack, and most other Windows customisation tools, before installing Revert8Plus. If you already have a previous version of Revert8Plus, you should remove that first. Removing the previous version will also remove most associated tools.
Hey i installed revert8plus to my computer but it faliedbut mades changes to the windows explorer and i cant open gallery and instaead its the windows 10 one and i want the win11 one back
@ Yes. OpenGlass is used on Windows 11. In fact, here's a full list of what method is used for aero glass on each Windows version: W8 - W10 1803: Glass8 (default) W10 1809-1909: OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (default), Glass8 (available via registry option) W10 20H1-22H2: OpenGlass Legacy (default), OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (available via registry option) W11 21H2-23H2: OpenGlass DComp 1.2.1 (default) W11 24H2: OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (default)
I have an error after installing "RunDLL There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\StartIsBack\64LegacyShell.dll The specified module could not be found." The Revert8Plus settings aren't in the control panel, and r8p.exe doesn't allow clicking Repair or Modify, only Uninstall
I've got a few reports of this 64LegacyShell issue, however I can't seem to replicate the issue myself. I believe it's related to a previous installation of StartIsBack. Check if you've got that installed, and remove it if so. Unfortunately, the options you've mentioned (revert8plu settings, repair, and modify) aren't finished yet. They'll be added soon, so check back later on the website for updates.
hello! For some reason the new version does not want to install correctly for me. Am i doing anything wrong? Ive been using R8P since V3.4 and that one worked completely fine. Today i tried to install v4 but for some reason nothing appears but the aero theme(yes i did uninstall the old r8p). The explorer modifications did appear but the aero features dont. I tried to use the repair button in the installer but it does exactly nothing. I hope it will be fixed soon and while that happens ill keep using the old version.
Also yes, the page is localised, however it only supports a few languages, and it's currently hidden by default due to most options not being implemented yet.
@@teknixstuff For taskbar/start menu/window borders colorization, you should also add an option to keep the "Automatic" color beside all the Windows 7 colors, just like in ImSwordQueen's transformation pack.
Is this safe to use on the main machine? I tried the standard version but unistalled right away because couldn't even acces the display settings (error message) (another question: If I install the full thing, can I still unistall it ? Thanks, but anyway it's a great project miss this aeroglass days)
Yes, you can uninstall the full version just fine. The display settings CPL applet isn't yet implemented, you'll have to use settings (Win+I) for that instead.
Supermium 124R2: github.com/win32ss/supermium/releases/download/v124-r2/supermium_124_64_setup.exe You have to enable the following settings in chrome://flags after installation: disable-windows-10-custom-titlebar, remove-tabsearch-button
Bro, I’ve got a problem. I installed it on my old laptop, but it wasn’t running well, so I uninstalled it. After that, everything went back to normal except the Windows File Explorer-it stayed looking like Windows 10 instead of Windows 11 (I’ve got Windows 11 on my old laptop). Any fix for this?
The beta themes (w7 dark, and vista) are installed but disabled unless you specifically select to use them. Other than that there is no beta features here.
Chrome uses it's own custom titlebar instead of Windows's standard one. I suggest using Supermium instead, as it has an option to enable the windows standard titlebar. Alternatively, I am looking into providing a built-in fix for chrome soon.
I've been using this transformation pack since v2, and I still continue to do so! Thank you so much for continuing this project!

Discovered Revert8Plus few weeks ago and I must say this new version is even more impressive, you rocks, keep going !
You've gone as far as making the basic and classic themes actually look and work like the basic and classic themes. You should be proud of yourself.
Very impressive you got this to work without modifying system files.
Amazing work as always, happy new year!
Can't believe how much Revert8Plus has evolved.
Amazing job!
This project is great for people who still want the nostalgia of Windows 7. I have had it installed since the first version came out. Keep the updates coming, and thanks for bringing us this great transformation.
THATS IMPRESSIVE! happy new year!
Finally a basic and classic theme and a regular old theme
Man you are the Best! You brought back our nostalgia back! It's like going back to good time! Forever
I hope this project stays alive for eternity ❤❤
Pretty nice project 😮 I will surely do a review on this version soon
this project is amazing, i have been using it since v3 and it always amazed me!
now that V4 released it's even better and more accurate!
and a thing, the first hours it worked just fine but then i reinstalled it because i had the standard version and wanted to try the full one, but for some reason the aero was a glitchy, it was only blue and i couldn't change the color, and whenever i opened an app the taskbar changed color and if i would hover on it it would change color where my cursor is.
and an other thing, the shutdown screen (the windows 7 one) works just fine, but i have the windows 10 login screen still.

It's crazy that you can set the default theme again! This is better than 21h1To7 honestly especially the basic and classic theme

Revert8plus
Probably Revert8Plus. I've always had issues with ISQ's pack not working when I tried it.

I'd love to use this but... when I DID use it (back in v3,) I kept getting popups from windhawk while using it telling me mod tasks are in progress. Really annoying. There must be some way to disable this, right?
Generally, that should only happen occasionally (eg when new symbols are being downloaded). Most of the time it should not occur. However, if it is frequently happening, follow these steps to reduce it:
1. Run regedit
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Windhawk\Settings
3. Open ModTasksDialogDelay
4. Set it to 59000 decimal.
You might have to reboot afterwards for the changes to take effect.
This will make the dialog only show up if mod tasks are taking more than 60 seconds to complete.

I have installed the v4 version of revert8plus, but after installing it, the startallback taskbar has not appeared. do you know how to fix this?
Uninstall StartAllBack. Revert8Plus no longer supports StartAllBack.
Ok so the transformation worked, the problem is the taskbar and the start menu wouldnt change at all
yo, does this cause any slowdowns in any way? I also wanna know if the dark mode works well
Generally, it has little to no effect on performance with W10, while it can bring significant improvements to performance on W11 in some cases. The dark mode is still rather unfinished though, and currently only affects certain buttons, and not other controls yet.
Happy new year 🎊
Im on windows 11, i heard its better on win 10. Has there been any improvements to the win11 ver?
why wont the favorites pins show up in the file explorer?
I have released an update that fixes that now.
@ oh nice!
does login screen work in this version i dont care if is in beta
It's been a while since I ran this on my Windows 11 but this video about the new version seems very promising so I'm thinking of giving it another go. But I already have DMWBlurGlass installed, I can't remember if I have to un-install that in order to install this new version of Revert8Plus?
Yes, you should uninstall DWMBlurGlass, StartIsBack, and most other Windows customisation tools, before installing Revert8Plus. If you already have a previous version of Revert8Plus, you should remove that first. Removing the previous version will also remove most associated tools.
How do I uninstall the old version to install v4? The v4 installer told me to uninstall the old version first.
You should be able to uninstall it from control panel, just like any other app.
Now we need dreamscenes
Hey i installed revert8plus to my computer but it faliedbut mades changes to the windows explorer and i cant open gallery and instaead its the windows 10 one
and i want the win11 one back
Finally updated?
Yep!
Works on Windows 11 with all functions? @@teknixstuff
This is 0.000000000001% away from looking completely like windows 7.
YES!!! THE BUG IS FINALLY FIXED!
Is there ability to load custom themes, change color of windows and control panel
Are there any bugs i should know about the one for Windows 23H2?
Please can you create a version that is compatible with OpenGlass?
This already includes and uses OpenGlass, where available.
teknixstuff Is it compatible with win11 the openglass version?
@ Yes. OpenGlass is used on Windows 11. In fact, here's a full list of what method is used for aero glass on each Windows version:
W8 - W10 1803: Glass8 (default)
W10 1809-1909: OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (default), Glass8 (available via registry option)
W10 20H1-22H2: OpenGlass Legacy (default), OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (available via registry option)
W11 21H2-23H2: OpenGlass DComp 1.2.1 (default)
W11 24H2: OpenGlass DComp 1.3 (default)
teknixstuff Oh I had OpenGlass with Version 1.3 Dcomp on windows 11 23H2. I was going to install it but not anymore.
teknixstuff Also very useful. Thanks.
1 question: is the login screen still in beta? If so lmk so I can install it cuz I want to tell my mom I downgraded
No, it is not.
Thanks!
But when i restarted my pc just everything goes like windows 10 back
amazing work, can't wait to try it out
however...is the website working?
I have an error after installing
"RunDLL
There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\StartIsBack\64LegacyShell.dll
The specified module could not be found."
The Revert8Plus settings aren't in the control panel, and r8p.exe doesn't allow clicking Repair or Modify, only Uninstall
I've got a few reports of this 64LegacyShell issue, however I can't seem to replicate the issue myself. I believe it's related to a previous installation of StartIsBack. Check if you've got that installed, and remove it if so. Unfortunately, the options you've mentioned (revert8plu settings, repair, and modify) aren't finished yet. They'll be added soon, so check back later on the website for updates.
is there a version that transforms Windows 10 or 11 to Windows XP?
IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE!! 🗣🗣
Dad im gay
Does it works on edge or chrome
Can you add an option to spoof winver into saying windows 7 in the future?
hello! For some reason the new version does not want to install correctly for me. Am i doing anything wrong? Ive been using R8P since V3.4 and that one worked completely fine. Today i tried to install v4 but for some reason nothing appears but the aero theme(yes i did uninstall the old r8p). The explorer modifications did appear but the aero features dont. I tried to use the repair button in the installer but it does exactly nothing. I hope it will be fixed soon and while that happens ill keep using the old version.
That's odd. You aren't doing anything wrong. What version of Windows are you on?
@@teknixstuff Im using windows 10 pro edition and the version is 22h2
@@IgetTOOsilly Huh. That should have worked fine then. I'm not really sure what could be causing the issue.
@@teknixstuff i have no idea whats causing it to not work. maybe the next update will fix it
Add Windows 7 regional themes
Also 7:47 is this page localized?
Oops! Regional themes were present in a v4 beta, however I forgot to add the option back after the new installer was added.
Also yes, the page is localised, however it only supports a few languages, and it's currently hidden by default due to most options not being implemented yet.
@@teknixstuff For regional themes, add the character "z" to the beginning of their filenames to push them to the end of the list.
@@teknixstuff For taskbar/start menu/window borders colorization, you should also add an option to keep the "Automatic" color beside all the Windows 7 colors, just like in ImSwordQueen's transformation pack.
Will the large minimize / reize buttons on the top right corner on windows 11 24h2 be fixed?
Yes, i'll fix that soon
@teknixstuff awesome
on windows 11 is there anyway to change how the borders look because the buttons are pretty large
DWMBlurGlass, or patch uDWM.dll
Is this safe to use on the main machine? I tried the standard version but unistalled right away because couldn't even acces the display settings (error message) (another question: If I install the full thing, can I still unistall it ? Thanks, but anyway it's a great project miss this aeroglass days)
Yes, you can uninstall the full version just fine. The display settings CPL applet isn't yet implemented, you'll have to use settings (Win+I) for that instead.
@@teknixstuff Thanks :) Nice work. Using it now
Please recommend some chromium browser with aero theme support🙏

You have to enable the following settings in chrome://flags after installation: disable-windows-10-custom-titlebar, remove-tabsearch-button
Bro, I’ve got a problem. I installed it on my old laptop, but it wasn’t running well, so I uninstalled it. After that, everything went back to normal except the Windows File Explorer-it stayed looking like Windows 10 instead of Windows 11 (I’ve got Windows 11 on my old laptop). Any fix for this?
Run sfc /scannow from admin cmd
How to get everything except the beta features (win11 24h2)
The beta themes (w7 dark, and vista) are installed but disabled unless you specifically select to use them. Other than that there is no beta features here.
@@teknixstuff so does that mean the login screen is no longer in beta?
can you fix tabs bec google chrome is win10 window and not 7
Chrome uses it's own custom titlebar instead of Windows's standard one. I suggest using Supermium instead, as it has an option to enable the windows standard titlebar. Alternatively, I am looking into providing a built-in fix for chrome soon.
@@teknixstuff ok ty bro
love from egypt
got a wierd bug after 2 day of use, the start menu revert it to win 10, no update occurred, the repair option of the installer doesnt work
also some weird thing that when pressing the windows key the start menu opens in the 2nd monitor
Does this Revert8Plus work with anti cheat game & affect anti cheat game ?
