It's actually surprisingly simple to see the old Aero Basic UI in other ways. For example, if you boot to the Windows 10/11 installer, the main window uses the Aero Basic theme, and if you start a command prompt under repairs, it and any other windows use Aero Basic too. Also, running anything in compatibility mode for XP and lower uses it. Finally, if you run something with the old Windows 3.1 program manager style UI, such as the remade Windows File Manager, it's child windows use Aero Basic.

Same here. (I do quite like some of the designs though. Haha) But I've had zero issues with 11 since I installed it back in June of last year when the dev channel became available. 10? More issues than I can count.

Yeah I don't get the hate (obviously design choices like the start menu, context menu etc are idiotic), been trying it out since the beta leak and it's pretty smooth but the biggest thing is that I haven't had a single crash, no BSODs, nada. Impressively stable. And my 2in1 that came with windows 10 was too slow to be usable, with windows 11 it actually performs like like a modern machine.

@@logant5595 No it isn't. Different kernel, different windowing system.

@@leblueawoo Technically, Win11 is indeed overlaid. As far as I know, the Win11 taskbar UI is overlaid on top of the simultaneously-existing Win10 UI. That's why, when you use a registry key to remove the Win11 UI covering the actual taskbar (whether manually via regedit or in a one-click fashion via WinaeroTweaker), you still have access to the Control Center of Win11. (The Start button is rendered unusuable due to no Start action being assigned to it, apparently.)

Personally, on Win11 I simply removed the overlaid taskbar like above, than installed OpenShell, due to the lower taskbar's Start Button being nonfunctional as mentioned above without the Win11 overlay. ( I also restored the pre-Win8 Task Manager and msconfig, while I was at it.)

Sure, the new UI may still a downgrade UX wise compared to previous version, as you need to do extra step to everything (like context menu, accessing settings like taskbar setting, etc), but visually it's an upgrade and it's*much* better than 8 and 10 at their launch.

Honestly, I kinda like Windows 11's design, especially on dark mode. It even reminds me of Aero. I hope they will make this system usable at some point.

same here but the context menu is just so bad - SAB makes the whole design better (even ribbon/classic context menu)


Well, now that we got a fix to Win11, would you recommend upgrading the OS or keep Win10?

Also new suggestion: remove rounded buttons

@@andrupka8749  That's not the point.
Not that I can on my main machine.

Got Windows 11 on my unsupported laptop for a while on the Windows Insider Program. Doesn’t notice any major issues, only minor ones like unable to set Explorer to open last opened tabs on startup like most web browsers and even KDE Plasma’s Dolphin file manager had for a while.


What a great and interesting video!

Windows 10 was coming on so nicely after years of updates, then just in order to be able to shove a new number on to the Windows version, they've made so many backwards steps with Windows 11 - changes for changes sake, just as an excuse to release a totally "new" version. I am still on Windows 10 and very happy, won't be updating to 11 any time soon.

"Windows 11" was supposed to be a feature update for windows 10 last year.

For this I would recommend ExplorerPatcher instead of these things
It's way simpler and comes with the real Windows 10 Start thingy
Also StartAllBack if you want Explorer's dark mode consistency, skinned Windows 10 taskbar, context menu and also Win32 theme


I knew Windows 11 was just Windows 10 with a tiny amount of changes, but I didn't expect it to be just some new stuff put on top of the old stuff.

Anyway, I did the right decision and upgraded to linux.


I can say Windows 11 isn’t that good. I’ve gotten 3 BSoDs since I’ve upgraded to Windows 11, while I’ve gotten 1 on Windows 10. If I open up 6 tabs on Google, my computer will lag. Reminding you that this is a GAMING laptop.


Whats the point of doing all this when you can just use w10? Is there any functionality on w11 thats really needed, or is it just for fun? Keep up the good work 👍🏻

There are some functionalities in windows 11 that some 10 users can't test.

@@yolocat-dev Video game devs testing HDR and stuff on windows 11 for their games. Or anything similar to that.


So that's why I downgraded to Windows 10.

1 - Taskbar dosen't work for me.

2 -Shortcut does not work (example: when I click on the file explorer, the explorer.exe crashes.)

3- When I create a folder on desktop and launch it crash file explorer. That's why I stay on Windows 10.

PS : Thanks, Google Translate !

It's times like this where I'm just really glad I switched to Linux.


And this is why I’m staying on Windows 10


Alternative way: install Windows 10, download a Windows 11 wallpaper and enjoy your life.


i recomend explorer patcher you can use it to get the windows 10 taskbar,start menu,sharp corners ,file explorer ribbon,context menu,alt tab menu and much more


Well its pretty cool to see windows 11's core themes that are behind all of those design changes


If you're just gonna revert everything to Windows 10's stuff, you might as well just use Windows 10 😅

I personally like everything in 11 so far apart from the removed stuff and no grouped apps on start, but they're adding all that stuff anyway.

yeah ill be honest i agree here, like theres no point in upgrading if youre just adding back 10s stuff


Fun fact: windows 11 has the laggiest music player ever, even on good pc’a you can’t play a game with the default music player. I will recommend to not upgrade for that 🙃

tf you mean its the groove music from windows 10


I dont know if anyone saw it but the music name is "you know this one, dont you" and its funny bc he understands that we know it too well

You can also just install Windows 10, if you hate every changed aspect of 11. With these modifications you make the system more unstable and break more features than fix.

8:47 for a brief moment you saw the glory of windows 7s corpse shining through.


Why do I always not read the word "usable" properly and instead read "unusable" or "unstable"


I honestly see nothing wrong with Windows 11, it's not "unusable. If you want to use it for normal use like browsing the internet or playing some games there is nothing wrong with it


Hopefully, the "Windows Core OS" project works out so they can start from just the kernel and basic libraries and rework from the ground up, improving instead of degrading.


This is absolutely horrifying what Microsoft did. What were they thinking and who are these people?

3) if u do, then join me in bedwars gonna sweat on it :D


You can use ExplorerPatcher's new feature, the 10 start menu. It's realistic but the icons are unchanged.

If Windows 10 was the last version of Windows, why did Microsoft make a new release instead of a skinpack?

Most people in the comments don’t realize that windows has been built on top of itself since it’s release.. you can still plug in hardware from the 1980s, and as long as it was supported by windows back then, it will still be supported now (although with no updates to it obviously). It’s the same reason your main drive is “C:”, your A: and B: drives are for floppy disks!!!


Fun Fact: Windows 11 was not harmed during this video.


Imagine what the MS Devs are feeling when you see people reverting things back to the way it was in Windows 10, and all their work has been removed from their OS. I bet they just plan patches to fix things so you have to use their code until someone updates their patches... ^.^

2 years later and as a user of both operating systems (Win 10 PC, Win 11 laptop), I can safely say that Windows 11 isn't bad, at least not anymore. For what it's gained and lost, I'd say it's on par with Windows 10. They're about as good as each other.


Ender, Why we should disable round corners. There is no complaints about round corners. I don't hate that.


8:44 is it possible to enable the win7 look permanently? i always liked it a lot.
i knewd from some time ago its embedded within Windows 10 (and 11 too), cause when installing windows, it will use these menus.


The sad thing is I can't just live on W10 forever. At some point it'll fall out of support and I'll have to change. If only this was more Linux-esque where I could just install an entirely different desktop environment and ignore whatever new stuff is going on without having to lose support.

You can also Change the branding, Copy The Windows 10 Branding Folder inside C:\Windows and then paste it to windows 11, And it looks exactly like Windows 10. You can also change all like all the icons in windows 11. Replace shell32 and imageres inside C:\Windows\System32 with the windows 10, You can do that by going into a installation media and replace it. You can also boot to the WinRE from your Windows Partition. You need to type these two commands: xcopy (Windows 10 Shell32) C:\Windows\System32. If it says an error, Try the destination drive letter different. And the other one: xcopy (Windows 10 Imageres.dll) C:\Windows\System32. You should now have the complete windows 10.

They just moved all the Taskbar options,  now you right click the windows/start button.


There is a registry value you can enable to bring back the Windows 10 Start menu (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Start_ShowClassicMode: if it isn't there create a new DWORD and name it Start_ShowClassicMode, then set it to 1). If you enable that before you enable UndockingDisabled then the start menu issue is solved and you have the Windows 10 Start menu and the Windows 10 taskbar.

After restart, the Start menu doesn't work.

Alternate title: Downgrading to Windows 10 manually


tbh i don't mind windows 11. one thing that bugged me the most was the drag and drop to taskbar which has now been fixed. the mass migration of settings from control panel to the settings app and the overall UI unification just makes it a far better experience than windows 10. so yeah i don't really miss windows 10.

one feature i wish windows 11 had is a column view in explorer a la mac os but knowing that apple patented quick look that's probably patented too idk. i've tried third party file explorers but they're not as reliable as the windows explorer.


bro showed us how to turn windows 11 to windows 10 without restarting or downgrading


I know this is completely off topic but would it be weird if someone made a Wheatly Crab Virus


i cant see the difference between windows 10 and the changed version of the windows 11


Alternative Title: Using windows 11 to go back to windows 10


I used explorerpatcher instead of start11, as unlike start11, explorerpatcher is free.

Also I prefer most of the Windows 11 UI changes(besides the right click fast context menu). I’ve always thought Windows 10 looked…lifeless and boring to look at.

I'd still call Windows 11 boring and lifeless compared to what Windows Used to be with XP, Vista, and 7


By doing this I accidentally bricked Explorer


Is there still a way to disable the new taskbar? It seems that the undockingdisabled trick got patched.


somehow Windows 11 22H2 is usable, I'd like to use it instead of Windows 10


Alternate title: Making crappy Windows 11 awesome and beautiful Windows 10


But how do you tweak the new win 10 look to look like win 7? (More seriously, can you change title bar heights in win 11?)


8 year old me trying to break my windows 7 <b>me be like deleting everything to system32</b>

Why even bother upgrading if you're just gonna make it look like W10, just stick with W10 lol personally Ilike the new interface and aside from the laggy context menu, it runs surprisingly smooth on my laptop.


Hey Andrew,<br>Are the website from you down, because i want do download a beta version

Hey Andrew,
Are the website from you down, because i want do download a beta version


I'm hearing people saying that Windows 10 is better than Windows 11, is that true? Because if that's the case I'm not updating my PC to Windows 11


Alternative title: installing windows 10 masochist edition


I like how this is a video about windows 11 and I'm getting PTSD at 8:40 coz of the song lol.


I was going to do a big school project now but I'm hungry so I'm watching this instead


I downgraded to Windows 10 (from 11) because memory problems. Do not choose Insider Dev. Many problems


Song: "You know this one, Don't You." Motherfuck-


Dude, Your a f***ing life saver for people very disappointed in Micros***.

They have a serious issue with the fact that people like you and me do this to speed up our systems.

Almost every time without fail, the store f***s up.

It spits out this error every time you attempt to download an app:

"Something went wrong...
Try the download again."

It has gotten to a point wherein people have to re-install their version of Windows to rectify it..............

REALLY MICROS***?, Oh, hell no, I might as well switch to Linux.


As a GD player, I respect your choice of music.

Exactly my thoughts, also Enderman is a GD player


don't call me out in the music title man


if someone made a bootleg windows 11 version of this usable windows 11 version, I'm upgrading my pc.


I love how bloodbath is you know this one


When I try to open file explorer the explorer crashes and it doesn't open. The only way to fix it is if I delete the undocking disabled dword.


I have to buy a new gaming laptop cause mine from 2016 is dying. It comes with windows 11 and i am happy that because of your video my experience wont be as disgusting as i thought it would be


in my opinion I prefer Windows 11 UI over Windows 10. It looks cleaner and more minimal. Of course you still have those goofy flaws that come with every Windows update though.


I kinda miss internet explorer ever since I "upgraded" my operating system from windows 10 to windows 11. Internet explorer brings me back my memories of me surfing the web on my dads shitty laptop that ran windows 7 that are since gone. Also my dad lost his old laptop when somebody stole it from our "secure" locker.

The last song is Dimrain47 - At the speed of light


As a Geometry Dash player i approve the last song of the video ;D


I wish that Microsoft adds blur to the legacy context menu in windows 10 and 11.


2024, and i still wont update until windows releases an os, that isnt ugly as f*** #BringBackWin10


How do I get Win 11 Disable RoundedCorners back please?


What a terrible mess of a OS. They should just give users the options to change these things.


Sorry but the ribbon part does not work for me what should i do ?😢


Windows will soon become a linux iso downloader just like its brother Edge was for other browsers.


The start menu makes no sense to me. I like the old one more.

Your website is not safe, it says "potential illegal software. Is this true by any chance? Is there a reason why?


thats super crazy bro just turned windows 11 into 10


Alternatives title : Making Windows 11 Looks Like Windows 10


If you're gonna get rid of straight corners like 10, change explorer to the old 10 version, change the taskbar to be the old 10 version, just use 10

Also how tf is adding rounded corners "lazy" what's lazy is being too lazy to round corners, not adding detail.

0:21 you downgraded? there is windows 12 already? (im jokin i know it doens't)


8:31 Yes, we all know it. Both the GD players and the dudes who were on newgrounds back in the day.

And for the minority who doesn't know: Dimrain47 - At the Speed of Light


Can you please upload an ISO image of your Windows 10/11 (with all Apps with licenses but not with your accounts)


i love how you said you downgraded to windows 11


8:31 "You know this one, don't you"
Yes, I do in fact play Geometry Dash, and thank god I do know this one. Otherwise I'd probably have to actually listen to it and not watch the video lol


guys! get ready! they are about to force ads into windows 11 file explorer!


When a bluescreen pop up i got a heart attack because of the big sad face, how can i change the text or the color screen?


hey i was wondering what the password was for the software on your website? i havent been able to find it anywhere


Alternate title: Making Windows 11 Windows 10


No offence but this is basically making a half win10 half win11 build. Different aesthetics everywhere


The name of this video should be change to 'How to transform Windows 11 to Windows 10'.


you keep referring to WinUI as UWP (calling the context menu UWP, or the new WinUI ribbon in explorer a UWP ribbon)


Windows 11 is just windows 10 with curvy edges and some icons slapped on it


hmmm, seems like Windows 10 with extra steps


I cannot use the windows start menu, the search menu, nor can I screenshot. There are a few more issues. The bar for the search menu also does not show up. Can someone please help me? I have restarted my computer multiple times.
