| The control panel menu is not supposed to be reorderable. What version of Windows do you have and what version of Classic Shell? Hiding is not possible, because then how would you unhide it if you happen to need it? Your best bet is to create a folder, put the shortcuts you need there, and replace ... |

It's so fantastic and so customizable I can't really find words to express the happiness. And of course, all my relatives would be using Windows 7 if... |

Same for the alpha channel. If you mix one transparent and one opaque pixel you will get a semi-transparent pixel. Imagine a... |

How can they have different colors than the original icon? The same applies to the alpha channel. Even if the original image i... |

There WILL be interpolation artefacts taking into account the adjustments necessary for the increased DPI as well as different size of the button (compared to the image dimensions). Instead, if you r... |

| Since you use a 125% DPI, this button is getting scaled which is why I think you are seeing scaling/size issues. I don't know if the image scaling algorithm that Classic Shell uses to scale the button ( WIC fant ) is better than bicubic, or whether it's worse. The original Windows 8.1 logo that you... |

Wouldn't you rather have more customization at the expense of a l... |

Hi, where are the icons of Pictures, Music and Videos folders from W8.1?
When I wanna change an icon, it selects system32/shell32.dll, which doesn't contain the icons I want.
