[DISCUSSION] Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 9926

As you all know, i'm not a big fan of this Modern UI & XAML crap. Since Windows 10 9926 uses XAML for nearly everything, i tried to get back all of the Win32 glory
And it turned out very well

 

seriously?

spin three times, fart and spit twice and then it'll work get serious all these commands for a little aero

 

Thanks Ace2! It is working now. When I first looked in Task Schedule after logging back in, the SetWindowCompositionAttribute wasn't running when I was logging in. What I did was change it to my specific username, followed your directions and now it worked. The only thing which I am not sure is supposed to happen but the taskbar is not transparent, but everything else now works.

 

Windows 8 Theme on Windows 10 9926 because why not
It's buggy though, Explorer won't start if this theme is enabled

 

Hi mate, I followed as Aca2 guide other page to step 2 Run cmd, after that the screen keeps flasing, incompatible box pop-up with block screen, I sign-in and tried click on retry or cancel, nothing happen, can't open any files or folder....what I did wrong? Help, please.

 

Then why did you bothered to install Windows 10 and an OS which is "Technical Preview"? You could have stayed with Windows 8?

 

You need to Sign out, then Press and hold down Ctrl when Sign in again, GOTO C:\AeroGlass and run the uninstaller, then follow the steps again, make sure you Press and hold down Ctrl when installing Aero Glass for Win8.1+ v1.3.1, so that you can run step 2. cmds, then extract Experimental debug version for build 9926 to C:\AeroGlass.

 

I just wanted to find out if Windows 8 themes still work on Windows 10. Why should that force me to stay on Windows 8? This doesn't make sense at all.
I'm not going to stay on Windows 8 just because it has ugly window borders.

 

I agree, id rather have an ugly UI and a newer OS, then stay on an OS that I know for fact is older but prettier, lol. If I don't like how Windows looks, then I have the right to "try and make it look better to me". If I fail, oh well at least I learned a lot in the process. If I succeed, then not only did I learn something valuable in the process, I also got more of what I want, which is a newer OS and a nice looking UI.

 

the UI is Ok, but the icon design is pure shxxt. Are we in the fxxking 1990s?

 

This community thrives on tinkering ... with files .. windows .. yourself ; ). Don't let anyone tell you that it isn't healthy!

Yes, I know. That's not the problem. The problem is that activation fails with the above errorcode, and the watermark isn't helping either.

 

Clean install 9926. Activation issues seem to be an issue affecting some with upgrades.

The only thing you can try is slmgr /rearm and then see if it activates after reboot.

 

Every time the computer boots I get about 20 errors in Event Viewer that various services crashed, is it normal? Also sometimes various programs won't start saying something about receiving bad stub, though it doesn't happen very often. Is this normal or is it because I upgraded through Windows Update from the Enterprise 8.1?

 

a little update: i have been streaming UE4 game dev stuff with windows 10 and have had no issues with game or anything else even dx12 is working great.
now i had a issue but fixed it where the start menu stopped working and the bug got synced to my ms account so i had to setup a new sync point

 

Use MS Toolkit from Cody.You will found it here,on the forum.

 

My Update & Recovery screen shows a new Build update : fbl.AWESOME.9933
