Hi Adni18,

First, major compliments on the blind, it's wonderful.  I've got a little story for you, and it's a little long, but I think you might get a chuckle out of it.

So why am I only writing a review of this blind after I've owned it for several years?            I have been using Windowblinds for quite a few years.  I know this is going to sound silly, but I tend to install all the blinds I've bought or downloaded at once, and then start cycling through alphabetically as time goes by and I want to change a blind.  That being said, I'm also the kind of person who formats and lays down a new Windows install every seven months or so just because I like my computer to run to run as snappy as possible. This blind used to be called something else, and now that it's Windows Zero, I never quite got to install and use this blind.  I mean, I will generally look at it, but I won't use it until I finally get through the alphabet; and I've never gotten through the whole alphabet before.  So I've finally installed Windows Zero in it's current form, and I love it.  Obviously it is intensely popular, and at the time of my writing this comment I write it on page 18; so obviously you richly deserve praise for it.

I have learned a lesson as well!  Stop installing Windowblinds alphabetically!!!  LOL!!!!

Seriously though, thanks for your hard work on the blind, and revisiting it time to time to update it.

Nice theme -- I wished it only would support HiDPI/retina monitors   Are there any Windowblinds themes anyway that support retina screen resolutions (like for example a 200% dpi setting)?

Hello David2P,

Thank you and sorry for the delayed answer...

I think the problem with 200% DPI is the Start menu only, on the other parts of GUI I guess all skins are working fine.

Hello Digicoma,

Thank you very much for your nice comment and the "little story"  

With my today update the alphabetical "problem" is corrected, it comes now before the letter "A"  

Best regards!

Good job!

Have some issues:

1. How to change color for minimized/inactive taskbar windows? (Using Win10)

2. I use three screens. On two screens he clock looks a bit ... messed up. (Windows set to dark colors in settings)

3. Can't open/extract your linked rainmeter skin. 7zip says it's not an archive:

 

And maybe you can make a dark version based on this theme? Would look fantastic, I think.

Hello seschwarz, Thank you!  

With my computer, after Windows 7 and for years now, the taskbar buttons are not displaying text, see the preview image above, I wonder how it is possible and your Windows 10 show text on the taskbar buttons... It is very easy to fix it though, but you need the help of Skinstudio.

The clock text is wrong in your preview, should be white color and big text, as my preview image above. I guess, for both cases the cause is the same, but I can't guess what it is...

As for the zip file, it works fine here, I just tested it, try to expand it with winzip or winrar, both have free-shareware versions.

Thanks for the idea of a dark version!

You can enable text on taskbar buttons by turn off grouping in taskbar settings. You should fix that directly in your skin, because I think I am not the only one using ungrouped taskbar buttons.

(Link to bigger screenshot)

Yes, on my priamry screen the clock is big and white. But not on the others.

Thanks, I'm fine with another rainmeter widget meanwhile.

Thanks for the idea of a dark version!

You're welcome.
