They've gotten their act together and hired you as their UI designer. All elements of design are yours to adjust. What do you do?
>Base: Windows 7 w/Segoe UI 7
>Borderless windows
>White space management from Windows 7 (no obnoxious large/small fonts b/c I got 20/20 vision)
>Much less gloss/gradients (think aero lite)
>Condensed taskbar from Windows 10
>Themes for Windows 9x, XP, 7, 8.1
>Classic Shell baked in
>OS-wise dark mode that uses deep grays

Win98 UI, that's all.
>Classic Shell baked in
Why would you bake in literal malware?
I like it, user.
They'd code it themselves. They don't need to use Classic Shell necessarily.
>classic theme with vsync option
>ALL win32 application elements get fluent design
>1 global setting for all context menus
>option for automatic tiling meme
>finish settings
>remove control panel
scrap everything
make everything either vectorized or bitmapped with dimension values of 2^K
literally copy paste the i3 window manager into windows
You do realize that was because FOSSHUB it self got hacked and Classic Shell was compromised along with many other project downloads? Issue was resolved long back.
ill scrap all UI completly u only need a terminal
>everything is black background 000000
>everything is white foreground FFFFFF
>no gui programs
>cli only
>tiling window manager
Windows 10's design but consistent across the entire operating system.
>1 global setting for all context menus
Jesus chist this would go a long way to making Win10 look better.
>finish settings
>remove control panel
They're going to have to flat out scrap the Win10 settings and redo it IMO. There are far too many complex UI things that are in the control panel that would be a nightmare in it. Already the Win10 settings window even on the lastest version is a fucking nightmare to navigate even with searching.
People are also missing some of the biggest UI issues, like fucking design+contrast between UI panes and elements. Half of the shit you can click in Win10 does not look intractable.
>wanting to keep bloated win32
oh no
Yikes
go take a class on hci if you find this stuff interesting
I do not believe that they can make UWP version of file explorer so only way is to mask win32 applications making them look modern and more consistent with everything else
fuck off i'm right
scrap everything since xp and start where xp64 left off
Get all of the code, including backups into a pile and thermite the entire thing. Fire all of the Pajeets, or you could thermite them too. Dealer's choice.

Idk, thats a start. Any thoughts?
Never really heard a pep about the UI in 7, and the only complaints I heard about XP's UI was the default fisher price theme, and I'm not talking about tech people, I'm talking about normies as well.
But the hate for Win10 is real with a LOT of people. How do you explain that user?
LOTS of applications just don't work with UWP's design conventions. You have no further then to look at the mess that is the Win10 settings or Edge to see that.
