REGARDING OG STEAM
----------------------------------------------
With the June 14, 2023 Steam Client update, they have rewritten the entire function of the UI and therefore old themes no longer work. OG-Steam no longer will function and you should disregard that portion of the video. I am however keeping the link in the description in case they somehow add the function back. Thank you all for still watching this!
for anyone having issues with the taskbar being too big, go to settings, search taskbar settings and click on taskbar settings then choose small icons. hope this helps
thank you very much
just finished up with all of the setup and it looks great, thanks!
love that classic steam skin, nostalgic
you can use retrobar instead of classic shell :)
however for the start menu you will need classic shell
I searched it and it said “Unsecured website”.
@@miniposeidonits just a false positive, i use it for my taskbar and its actually really cool

This is probably the most helpful tutorial in the entire planet
Thank you incredibly so much for your guide and clear explanations - this has made me and many others extremely happy, thank you!
- Some extra clarity on T-Clock installation would be appreciated.
thank you so much for this video ❤
title: make my pc look like win xp
first: make steam look like og steam
I know this is one whole year ago, but how can I make my windows file explorer and title bars look like Windows XP's without buying and breaking my taskbar?
k so a few issues i saw that i fixed.
1. RetroBar for the taskbar
2. Use Millennium for the steam skin, since it has both the 2003 and 2013 skins with FUNCTIONING library skins.
3. Continuation to 2 but if you use the 2003 skin on Millennium them DO NOT USE SMALL MODE! If you use small mode, then the whole program will look weird upon changing back to large mode.
If I missed anything, let me know! (I use the same programs you do but I have modified it to look my style.)

note to everyone, if you want better windows xp taskbar u can use retrobar
Thanks A lot, this was very helpful.
open shell is the new classic sheel that is still supported
you know what I wanted to ask you. when you lower or raise the volume it should generally make a sound effect, for me it doesn't do anything. how can I set the ding of windows xp?? Thank you
really want to do this but WHY is window blinds 20$ now :/
who said you cant download it for free?
@@medio_231 ended up paying for it lol
Is there a way to get a start up and shut down XP sound ?
Yes, you can download it from some websites and replace the normal starup sound with the one you want
it WILL NOT show up in the area where you actually select the skin. it only ever allows you to use the default skin
You have to change it to classic with two columns in start menu style first
that takes me back
hey how to i get the black shadow/outline around the font of your desktop icons? do i need window blinds for that?
how did you make the start menu go all the way to the side of your screen
Go to Display Settings then change size of text apps to 100%
Theres a problem with Classic Shell. The windows XP luna option doesnt appear.
In the start menu style, select "Classic with two columns" and then click select skin, instead of the default "windows 7 style"
Amazing i love it
why does mine not come with xp luna?
you might be using the windows 7 style. xp luna will show up on classic style and classic with two columns.
Will it help to use the customize layout for low-end computers?
When i applied the theme my whole svreen just went black and i cant use my pc at all, tried rebooting and the issue persists, sometimes a welcome screen appears and them it just goes straight to black screen again
The start button is overlapping the taskbar icons I already tried small taskbar it looks more ugly and still overlaps.
Bummer Valve killed of skins for Steam. Pixelvision 2 was my go to Steam skin after the 2011 or 2013 skin.
The start button was too small for my taskbar
"this is windows 10" oh we know...no need to caption that.
How do I resize the taskbar so the start button isn't embedded in spare taskbar?
Right click and go to taskbar options and make it small I believe
My task bar is too big for the xp icon :(
hey how did u get the taskbar size to fit the xp button bc mines too big
It means your resolution doesn’t support the taskbar icon you selected
do you have an alternative to windows blinds, because no way in hell am I paying $20 for that shit, and I am not trusting torrents for that
None of the things are listed in the description. At least as far as I know...
oh SHOOT youre absolutely right! A while ago I changed every description and completely looked over the fact that i shouldnt change this one, I've fixed it now, thank you so much for telling me!
@@ArmanaXD No problem! Thanks for updating it!
@@ArmanaXD how do i switch it back?
@@ArmanaXD also i cant find the windows xp lua skin
You should of did it without your computer already looking like windows xp
How can we change the other icons though?
Can someone help me with the Github T-clock, Idk how to use it, all I've done is extract it
looks great thanks a llot
theres this cheap program thats 99 cents on the microsoft store called xp explorer and its a 1 to 1 recreation of the original xp explorer it even bas the luna title bar
XP Does not appear on Open Shell anymore, what do I do?
Nevermind, did not realize you had to click the 2 column thing or whatever
@@cripmusicongfrfr wait how do you get xp skin
why tf is window blinds $53 AND THATS THE CHEAPEST OPTION but there is a 30 days free option so
piracy, it AINT worth that now LMAO
you didn't update the description with the thing i told you on twitter, just letting u know cuz like maybe u forgot idk
fixed
I’m the person that gave you 1K likes on the video❤
open-shell
Any non payed alternative?
Piracy.
@@ArmanaXD Based
as we can cook a egg with the HP laptop with amd ryzen 5 3600
Get open shell dont get classic shell.
TASKBAR PARTISNT WORKING HELP
Does this impact performance in games?
I want to know as well
quick answer no but on a very low end pc it does
Window Blinds now 2024 $29 from $9.
piracy is based, just remember that
cant find "skins" in the steam folder
@@aubslvt7396 tried it, didnt work :(
i cant find the windows xp luna
you gotta select "classic with two columns" on "start menu style" then you click select skin and you shall find it
@@jonasnavarijo7477 ohh thank youuu
how did you do the window ?
He used window blinds. But apparently it doesn´t fully function on windows 11, I tried it
@@RitaColacoNuminous thanks man
I'm not spending $51 on that, wtf?
I'm not gonna lie, I just read this comment at a diner and instantly went to check Windowblinds. HELL NAH don't spend that, price is up to $30 now and I can say that is NOT worth the price.
I don't plan on following up this video. But you can find posts on reddit about other ways to get the look.
Thanks for telling me about that, do not buy WindowBlinds. At the cost I paid it was worth it, but I can't advocate for a 300% increase for the same thing.
@@ArmanaXD Yeah all good, I wound up using basicthemer6 and open-shell with the theme.
@@ArmanaXD Where is the folder?
does this work on 11?
Yep
does this work with windows 11?
yes
If you use explorer patcher to restore windows 10 taskbar then yes.
Alternate Title:
Windows 10 (or 11) Simply "Downgraded" to Windows XP
not necessarily it's just a look
This is not a good theme and heres why
1. Big taskbar icons
2. No taskbar icon labels
3. Volume icon in the taskbar is from windows 10
4. That clock looks weird
5. The Start menu has no name on it
6. The power off buttons on the start menus are off, the log off button doesnt exist and the shut down icon is on the light blue column
7. Desktop icon shadows
open shell is adware
how
source?
