@King990 Here is a link to my library list. Just scroll through until you find the ones you like. I do have one named "Windows 7 Aero". However, it is highly customized. I don't think that is what you are looking for. I haven't customized in years, so my old customizations probably won't work for you. I will look to see if I can find anything for you. Good luck. | WinCustomize.com

Hi King990, I have several Windows 7 themes in my library of Screenshots. The programs and items needed to create the themes are listed with each Screenshot. Also, I have many Mac themed screenshots for those who are interested. The programs and items needed to create those themes are listed as well.

I was purchasing an additional copy of Start 10. As I was checking out, Stardock offered an "upgrade'' to Object Desktop for a good price. I purchased the upgrade (which includes Start 10, Fences, WB, etc. After the transaction was completed I went to my purchased software download page in my Stardock account. To my surprise, Stardock did not add a new copy/subscription of Object Desktop to my account, but rather added a year to my existing Object Desktop subscription. Is it possible

Fences is GREAT software. I have been using it since the beta version was released years ago. https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/screenshots/23667/ I recommend it to everyone with whom I discuss computers and or software. Everyone that I know that installs and uses Fences loves it.

Thanks for the comments / info. I already own Object Desktop plus two Start 10 product keys (in addition to the five Start 8 product keys). The extra product keys are / were for family and friends. Of course my family / friends all want Windows 10 installed. I guess my Start 8 product keys are obsolete. :(

Start 8 - I have several Start 8 activations / keys (5). They do not work on Start 10. Can or will Stardock convert those keys to Start 10 keys? When I upgrade Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 on affected computers what is the best way to retain (install / activate) my Start 8 purchases on the Windows 10 computers? Thanks in advance

Thanks RnD, I uninstalled Decor8, but the lock screen won't change, and the options to do so are still greyed out. I guess the incompatibility with Windows 10 corrupted that setting somehow.

1.) Start 8 - I have several Start 8 activations / keys. Will they work on Start 10 when I install it on the computers that I am upgrading to Windows 10? OR should I install Start 8 on the Windows 10 computers, activate it, then do the in program upgrade to Start 10? 2.) ModernMix - Object Desktop Manager has offered me an upgrade to ModernMix version 1.22 for sometime now. However, it will not successfully upgrade. For a while I got an error msg. Now when I try to upg

DrJBHL "Stardock apps are designed to work with the RTM , JAFO "Stardock's releases of compatible software MUST ALWAYS be post-RTM". Is this a distinction without a difference or a contradiction? My purpose for the original post was to inform Stardock of my experience with ModernMix installed on Windows 10 "Preview", not to convey any type of impatience with a lack of compatibility at this early stage. As Island Dog stated "Nothing is officially supported for Windows 10

This morning I installed ModernMix in Windows 10 Preview. I wanted to add Modern Apps to my desktop. When I click on a Modern App it opens, turns completely black, and then disappears (crashes). Once I uninstalled ModernMix the Modern Apps open as usual. I do like adding them to my desktop via ModernMix. Any suggestions? I know "Preview" equals buggy, but I thought Stardock would like to know this information.

Neil thanks for your quick response, sorry about the thread. I can start a new one if you prefer. I just reinstalled ModernMix and got the same result. I made a screenshot for you to see. The app (weather) is maximized (not windowed) and still no split option. When ModernMix is not installed the split option is there. I don't do this very often, so if you could tell me where to upload the screenshot so I can add it to my post I would appreciate it.

Windows 8.1 update 1 adds a new feature to metro apps. You can right click the app's icon (upper left corner when the app is open) and it will give you the option to split left or split right. When ModernMix is installed this opton is not available. Neil and or other team members could you please take a look at this problem too. Regards, Winstar4
