hey man I have a problem that I accidently deleted all the file of taskbar and my taskbar is kind mess now so what should I do now help me man
oh never mind I fixed with a reboot
Hi
How to download on github? I'm confused
@@abetosebastian9742 Go to releases or simply add /releases in the url bar
Love how he didn't just get the links but also gave the proper credits to the creators...
Gotta respect someone that respects other ppl's works,,
indeed
@@tranduyanh its in the description
Windows does include an archive utility. Right click > Send to > Compressed folder
And it does so since 2000 (earlier with the Plus packs).
It‘s infuriating when people claim they „can‘t“ open zips…
omg... why would they put that into send.... what compression options does it give?
@@somnia3423 just .zip files
@@DillsArtThing ahhh okay :D thank you
its more infuriating when people install winzip (not winrar/7zip) on a MODERN WINDOWS (7 or up) for opening zip files and then install winRAR
the intro animation is f*cking crazy looking, damn man
Thanks man!
My dude just created windows 11
Holy moly, that was a lot of cool sht. Without sketchy software, loves it
Haha, thanks!
Yeah, without sketchy software is amazing!
@@sudhamajayanthi damn the world is a small place😂 nice seeing you here
@@manashejmadi haha, Hello!
And the best thing is that every app tweaks Windows in a very Windows like style, without looking weird. Love it!
Without Rainmeter? Hell yeah I'm in
Hey, why is rain meter bad?
@@marlonarancibia3247 eats up too much ram
@@marlonarancibia3247 Its kinda heavy and I wouldn't cripple my performance for that. Also, I have used it in the past and it can be prone to viruses
@@marlonarancibia3247 Always runs in the background basically.
It affects performance, security, and economy also.
@@kyleadriano13 it doesn't go beyond 15 MB for me, 11 MB average
I've just spent all evening perfecting the look of my desktop. Looks SO much better! Excellent video :) Well done!
This is absolutely the best set of apps anyone has recommended on youtube to achieve a macOS look. Superb!
Thanks Hamza!
Thank you! This video made a huge difference for my experience using Windows, I really appreciate your work!
Really appreciate your words!
This is one of the cleanest windows layouts I've ever seen!
You can change the curser to look like macos curser in the windows settings:
Settings --> accessibility --> Mouse curser --> Custom color --> Choose black.
You dont need to download anything :)
But then you don't get the loading, busy, etc cursors
@@beedgehog I mean you can download and install MacOS cursors online and they look slick and don't affect performance at all
@@cetas7838 not really, macOS is much better for software development since it's unix-based, it's also great for creative software like adobe and davinci products. only thing it lacks behind is in games, but then with the new apple silicon chips, they're getting better at gaming performance, so we could expect more games coming to macOS soon™. oh and the fact that iOS and iPadOS apps+games being supported on the new apple silicon macs just make them so much better, so yeah (:
@@cosmicle0 why is being Unix based better for development?
Upgraded my setup and really loving it ❤️️Thanks for the tips! Hope you make more such videos in the future.
Thank you! Will do!
Amazing video. I got really attached to spotlight when using my school's laptop, and having the opportunity to use it on Windows is incredible.
I'll definitely check your channel for more softwares like these. Thank you very much.
This is a treasure. I've used your 'old' video to clean my desktop about a year ago. But this apps made my life so much easier, specially using two screens. The possibility of throwing notifications to the other-less using monitor, the new layouts and that quick-search were on point! Thank you so much for this
Thank YOU so much for the positivity Edson! Glad I could help
@@felixkruip Keep up the amazingness! And the best part of it all: no sus links with possible referrals or apps that might do harm!
This looks amazing and is an amazing guide.. You have made the already good looking Windows 11 into the best looking OS I've ever seen.. I always liked the look of MacOS but much preferred the functionality of Windows.. With your guide I now can have the best of both worlds ❤️
Top-notch video, Felix! I've used MacOS at work in the past and I really loved some of the features that are not natively in Windows. Now I can have them back!
Awesome! So happy to hear that.
Oh my GOD this is flipping amazing! Thank you! Thanks for introducing so many great open source projects that actually improve the functionality of W10, rather than making it just look like MacOS! Much love
Appreciate you Carolina, thanks for the kind comment! 🙏🏼
Thanks a ton! Just had my windows unit formated a while ago and lost all personalization I made. You just made the whole thing a lot easier with all the tips and links!
After 13 years of Mac I‘m switching back to windows and this is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!
Btw it‘s very helpful that you are always showing the logo of the OS in the upper right corner.
This is excellent! Definitely sharing this.
Thanks! That’s awesome
Your suggestion app is amazing. I like this transparency effect app.
Thank you SO much! As a macOS user who now has to use a Windows PC at work and has seen my productivity plummet from this decision, these tricks will help greatly.
Also, kudos for a WONDERFULLY made video. Your pacing was spot on, audio quality fantastic, and the background music was beautiful. This is one of the few videos on RUclips that I didn't have to speed up. Thank you for that. Cheers!
In the File Explorer window, click the View tab. In the Panes section, click the Preview Pane button. The Preview pane is added to the right side of the File Explorer window. Select several files one by one. You can preview their contents in the Preview Pane, if they are text, images, or videos.
I never had a Mac, I didn't even wanted to have one, but some tools I find really clean and got them as they are awesome! 🥰
Dude, thank you very much. You just made my windows experience less frustrating.
Awesome!
Dude! Amazing look of your system!! Love it! And also love the content! Cheers!
Amazing... the best video I've seen about customization... such amazing tools and tips... please do more
Damn that was excellent video I was bored with windows 10 look and was looking for open source free software thanks for this video regards from India 🎉
That's great! Enjoy
linux exists, linux is cool 0_0
So.Much.Content in just an 11 min. video!
Dude thank you so much, I wasn't looking for this video, but I saw it in my recommendations and was curious. I do not regret downloading many of these programs.
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the cursors, i only used mac a few times when i was in the second grade in school but i have always liked the look of the cursor set.
I've been using TaskbarX for over a year now, and trust me when I say that it's worth those few little bucks. It also works with my Windows 10 Pro Dev Build 21390. I also suggest taking advantage of the full-screen Start Menu. The default file system on Windows also has an option for previewing images and documents on the right of the panel. Oh, and that Visual Studio Code, though. I freaking love it!
I think an underrated search launcher that I have only ever seen mentioned once, is flow launcher. Currently using it over power toys run and I'm really liking its functionality over power toys run.
I usually just use Everything to search across my pc
@@RiskiVR I use a plugin for flowlauncher that lets me search with Everything through the launcher.
This video made me so happy I could cry!! I had to switch to windows for work and it has been rough for me, im looking forward to implementing these changes, thank you so much
Echt een enorm hulpvolle video. Geen onzin waarmee je je systeem kan beschadigen!
Amazing. Thank you.
Great content 👍🏻
Damn, this was helpful. I've uninstalled Stardock fences after 5 years and my now I have a bunch of stuff in the taskbar like you've shown in the video. What a very nice set of tweaks.
One of the best tricks video I've seen for a long long time! Awesome!😉
So you basically were way ahead of time and created Windows 11 design :D Cool
I found it even better than Windows 11 in some aspects.
I used some of these on my Windows workstation at the office and it turned out great! Also, you don't need a custom cursor package. Just go into the mouse settings in Control Panel and you can change it to the black cursor. I'm on 21H1 and it's built in. Not sure about older versions.
it works on all versions at all
but it has the rainbow wheel in the cursor pack.
@@lilbpack2100 Ah. I didn’t think about that. Thanks for pointing that out.
Thanks @@theretromillennial
OMG! I love how this video introduces me to dozens of great tools for the Windows OS. Thanks for sharing! You deserve more likes and subscriptions!
Bedankt voor de informatieve video.
Graag gedaan Job, bedankt voor je comment!
I like how much hours of research you would've done for this video, great work 🔥
Yep, weeks of research and script writing. Thanks for pointing it out!
Protip: Auto Dark Mode is a program that will automatically switch from light to dark mode based on location, kinda like windynamicdesktop but for your color theme, combine this with Dark Reader in Auto mode, and you have a more consistent experience
WinDynamicDesktop actually can also do this with the powershell scripts listed on their github.
I'm using the MacOS cursor and i LOVE it! Thanks man!
Thanks for the tips. I appreciate how cool windows can looks like!
Great video💖💖💖
Appreciate you! Thanks.
instead of microsoft making these cool changes into the main software they publish it in the market as apps thats ridiculous, i had no idea
Wow, so much stuff I didn't know about. Thank you so much!
Lots of really good suggestions!
Hey!
Quick tip: you can preview pictures, PDFs, Excel sheets and more in the windows file explorer by pressing ALT + P
Wait, really? That’s awesome
YO THANKS A LOT
Thanks
Man I Really Like Your Video 🥰, You Deserve More Subscriber
Thanks for putting it into the universe! ❤
@@felixkruip You Are Most Welcomed
Video is quality stuff man. Love all the reccomendations
Really needed a video like this
holyshit this is epic man thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is awesome! Now I can fell like a mac user without having a mac!
Haha awesome!
Thank you so much! I'm really enjoying the new aesthetic of my PC now! 😄
To the point and absolutely life changing. Thank you.
We appreciate the Linux shoutout :)
You bet!
Quality ✅✅✅
Stupidly useful video even now, thanks so much!
Oh man thanks for this video, it make my windows look fresh
this dude really just rickrolled us…
Nice video, do you have any recommendations for a pdf viewer that is as good as macs preview?
most usefull video i have ever watched about Windows! Great job mate
This one was the easiest way to get that look. Thank you!
Subscribing right away ❤️
That’s awesome! Happy to have you
One another great thing in Windows "Sticky Notes"
I just wish you could change the appearance of notes. Also, I wish they would separate the sticky notes from OneNote in iOS and make it a stand alone app
THAT IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR FOR AGES , THANK YOU
Simple, effective and practical tips for making Windows look muuuuuch better! Thanks for the video; I just made my system look fresher and more beautiful!
That’s awesome, thanks Rodrigo!
Some interesting tools just one thing: Windows 10 uses compressed folders which actually creates a zip file.
The video even shows him using the standard zip functionality to open the zip file. The menu item to create a zip archive even says it will create a zip file Send to a "Compressed (zipped) folder"
@@Col_Crunch I must actually stop watching these kind of videos as they irritate me to the bone. Sure there is interesting information that i don't even know after 38 years of working with computers but there is also a lot of misinformation.
They need to make the OS simple, easy, and basic that even a child can use and an elder can use and there would be nothing wrong in them accidentally making purchases through app or gaining viruses 😃
Basically what GNU/Linux (usually referenced to as linux) is
I mean it's not that scary like it sounds, using terminal is optional but very helpful
Dude i recently got the new lg gram and i had to get my dad to set it up. I had no idea how to use that computer. At school we have chromebooks and we sometimes use windows computers, but we only used chrome.
@@4ntol236 any specific distro? I like using Ubuntu
@@CuteTransGirlxD i feel like Linux mint would be great for many people because it looks and feels similarly to what most of the people are kinda familiar with (you can't tell me that cinnamon doesn't look a little bit like windows)
Also it's based on Ubuntu so you can follow many guides and should be fine
I think that is Linux Mint with a customised UI
thanks so much i was looking for macos cursor and it worked :) new sub
Nice! That s everything I needed ,thanks a lot
Freaking SICK!!! 🤘
Linux guy here. I am going to totally do some of this on my windows vm to make it look less ugly 😄
🐧❤
Wow. Great one
Would also like to mention that QTTtab Bar is a good alternative to "files app". Does pretty much the same job with multitab features etc, by integrating with Windows native file explorer.
i just i got rickrolled.
9:48
😂 I'm already using all the tools you suggested. Still a nice representation and good to have a public source that consolidates all the tools. Now I can just share this video to my non-techy friends.
Two pro tips:
1. you can enable preview pane in normal file explorer too. It is handy when choosing files from browse dialog in programs.
2. Install "winget" command line to tool for installing programs.
Literally you could install all the programs you showed using single command in power shell.
Eg. winget install powertoys, winget install taskbarx, winget install 7zip
Thats it single line to install your favourite programs
Haha that's great! Thanks for sharing.
I have tried the preview pane, I find it very limited. Thanks for the tip about the command line!
Awesome !.. first thing i'm gonna try
When I once in a while find a youtuber that starts the video right away, doesn't bore you with unnecessary talk, makes the most out of every second of the video, inshort respects viewers time. I hit that SUBSCRIBE button!
Thank you for pointing that out! Writing a script really helps haha
Happy to have you as a subscriber!
Your display photo had me blowing on my monitor thinking it was a cat hair. lol
Alternative title: How to fit even more bloatware in Windows 10
Windows 10? Bloatware?
Dude, its not 2015 anymore bro, get with the times.
Windows 10 2021 is nothing but very useful features out of the box. Its security is even on par with Linux now, and its speed is sublime. Windows 10 only struggles on 32 bit machines with less than 4GB ram, but only poor 3rd world countries still use 32 bit ancient junk.
@@angrysocialjusticewarrior It has shit toon of usles apps that it ships with such as a weather app, xbox, etc....
@@DiamondZombie Weather app and the xbox setting are both very useful apps that I personally use regularly.
In fact, Microsoft has improved the weather app and made a "temperature" icon to display on the taskbar in the latest windows 10 update.
Im a developer but also a gamer so the xbox integration is a huge plus (including microsoft's own gamepass as well).
like I said, "bloatware" is a term that is no longer applicable to the current version of windows 10.
9:47 you had to do it
HAHAH of course! :D
Very well done video, awesome set up too. Microsoft needs to take note on this video Period!
Thank you for this! Such great content!
Thank you for your kind comment!
currently I use Windows 10 on a 46" monitor and a 39" 4K monitor.
dude!!! what kind of graphic card you have to handle the monitors! must be a beast
May I ask what the refresh rates on them are?
@@cafeine size really doesn't matter in monitors, the resolution it what matters. You can have a 4k 27" monitor or a 4k 73" but they'll perform the same since they're both 4k
Or you can just make a hackintosh and run macOS on your Windows hardware
And not being able to use INVIDIA
Ty for this😮💨 I love the way mac looks but like using windows more
this was AMAZING new sub here. keep the videos coming. I'll binge watch now your channel, thank you
I love how he was listening to NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP
Nice video dude!
Just... AMANZING!
Easiest subscribe + like on YT. Good content, smooth transitions, hairstyle looking fresh, plus I learned about quality apps on Windows.
Brilliant video dude!
Btw at 5:00, instead of doing all those steps, you can directly install a full on MacOS cursor for windows, with the black arrow and ,the color wheel for loading, animations. It’s pretty neat.
looks great. I updated to win 11 but could still use this vid for lots of stuff . thanks
Wow! Long time mac user here, who also needed a PC for the heavy workloads. This is highly appreciated!
Good stuff man.
