please now how can i remove something from one of the modes installed? like for example i want to use the translucent feature but remove the other other ones
You can use PowerToys Fancy Zones for this. When configuring the "Space around zones" you can set it to -1px or more. Try with arrow keys if the slider doesn't work for negatives.
Just wanted to say you don't actually need to click the sound icon to change the volume. Just hover over and scroll to change to volume, but still taskbar volume control mod makes it more easier
Having a 49" monitor the task bar all the way across the bottom is such a pain in windows 11. I miss being able to drag it to the left side so it doesn't waste so much of my screen. Being able to shrink its size will be helpful.
use startisback you can use it to put windows start to left side as well as putting it back to old style, like it was in win 8, there are more possibilities you can check, i am using windows x lite 10, its slimmed windows, they also have windows 11, there you have preinstalled startisback app. Personally i chose win 10 because it has better performance compared to win 11. Having around 60 processes after bootup, with around 2gigs of ram used. there is no bloatware, but still ez to install windows store if you use something from microsoft. Best optimized windows that i personally was in touch with is from xlite. If you are looking only for customizable start just download startisback or startallback depends on if you use win 10 or 11
We can change the volume using the MWheel while hovering on the speaker icon on the taskbar. But the feature to do that on the whole taskbar is pretty nice.
I don't really get the Improvement. Just because I can hover a few inches away and do the same thing, based on the amount of times I change the volume, this option isn't worth the time to install.
Awesome & Beautiful Video Sir! Is there one 4 windows 10? Thank you and keep teaching us great computer stuff. Cheers From Sunny Warm Puerto Rico Island
It's ridiculous that you have to download mods to get this kind of customisation. Plenty of these options should be in windows 11 by default. Microsoft has just developed so much contempt for its customers over the years, preferring to take more options away than useful new features added.
You don't if you use the settings you can do all this and even more if you know how to use PowerShell. Its because people don't want to learn new things and don't like change.
@@LeaveChildrenAlone Customization options: I have an Excel spreadsheet where its listed every customization option in Windows 11. The total number of options is in the 4,000 to 5,000 and something range, I forget right now. You use Group Policy and security policy edit to access it. The number of ways you can customize it is bewildering. Windows Pricing: The price of Windows for users not buying a computer has fluctuated based on Microsoft's strategy, but it has generally stayed in the range of $100 (Home) to $200 (Pro) for retail licenses, with occasional discounts, promotions, or bundled offers reducing the effective cost. Microsoft’s OEM licensing (sold with hardware) remained significantly cheaper than the retail versions, sometimes by as much as 50% or more. A lot of people had a free upgrade from Windows 7/8 to Windows 10 and then from Windows 10 to Windows 11. The free offer for an upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 still exists.

Can't wait for the rest of the video's associated with win 11 modifications. Installing it on a usb coupled with the unattended Winstall core XML file. After a month of use and modifying to get as close to win 10 as you can and remove/negate the thing that just suck, how do you like it so far vs win 10?
Awesome, glad you like the series so far! Yeah I have to say so far Windows 11 is usable for me. I don't have it "perfected" yet and I think with the release of 24H2 there might some other issues we'll need to address as well, but I can see myself using Windows 11 full time. I've been using it for like 2 or 3 months now but with the program I'll be showing in the next video, so keep an eye out for that.

The only issue I find with the translucent menu is when you click to search in the menu, the theme reverts to normal and the translusent doesn't carry over.
This is a wonderful program! I can't stand the Recommendations section of the start menu. It takes up too much space, preventing more apps from being pinned. I've been waiting for Microsoft to change this in an update, but it hasn't happened yet. And the taskbar was too high! This is a great customization program that took care of both annoyances! It was simple to install and easy to use. Thank you so much!!
Glad to hear the program helped you. The recommendation section of the start menu had an option to limit its recommendations to a single line, I don't even need that.
Windhawk is great, except for... Task bar Styler Mod. This was not a problem with 23H2, but it, unfortunately, is with & since 24H2. If one is using multiple desktops, each with a different background, this is messed up with Task bar Styler ON. As you change desktops, they will 'flip' to the background of ONE of them. To prevent this Windhawk Task bar Styler Mod must be turned OFF/Disabled. On the bright side... its Start button at the Left Mod did receive an Update such that it no longer overlaps the Widgets task bar icon 👍👍
Great tutorial man, got a question for the unattend windows 11, how do I get to install the Creative Cloud because it doesn't seems to run properly, could use some help, thanks!
One thing I noticed about a few Windows 11 customization apps is that when you launch your PC sometimes it takes a bit for the customizations to load like a few seconds which isn't a issue but I was curious if it happens to Windhawk
Hallo, Do disk partitioning with USB WinPE, run “install.wim” apply-image and C:\WORK\work.ps1.... When the wpinit cmd window opens it will automatically run createpartition.txt. I need code to open a PowerrShell window and run the script C:\Work\work.ps1. Or which path should I follow? What changes do I need to make to stratnet.cmd or winpesl.ini in boot.wim file in Windows\System32. Can you please help me?
i hope we will get translucent on file explorer as well soon in the future their is one that makes it (i.e. Explorer Blur Mica) but i was hoping it in windhawk
How safe is Windhawk? With so many mods out there, each made by different people, it's hard to keep track of them all, so it seems pretty easy for someone to slip in some malware. What do you think?
what about a full on Windows XP theme? I already have Wallpaper engine with a clean True Christian animated wallpaper. and I am just wanting to make the rest Windows XP themed
@@memstechtips Not at all. It's basically an engine that runs your custom lua scripts to customize windows, but in most cases you just download something someone else made instead of writing your own. I, for example, downloaded a "rainmeter skin" (as they call it) that appears as an icon (headphones or speakers) that can control sound volume. I then deleted all of that code and used those 2 icons to make a toggle button that quickly switches my sound output between headphones and speakers and it sits nicely on my desktop. There is a whole subreddit dedicated to pretty setups at r/rainmeter. It's all just folders and text files, all you need to make something is a notepad lol
overall WIndhawk, in its current state, is a very lackluster tool, but that has more to do with the mods currently available rather than the app itself...
@@memstechtipsthe scroll to change the volume on the taskbar is definitely mehhh.., because I can do the same thing on the sound icon, how many times in a month do I change the volume, once?
Which one of the Windhawk mods I showed in this video will you be using?
Is there any way to stop playing music or video when windows disconnect with Bluetooth device(earbuds) ? 🤔

why you saying WINDHOWK? LOL
@@memstechtips start menu mod and volume mods r very helpful for me in day to day tasking

Windhawk has a Vertical Taskbar for Windows 11 mod.
I have been using StarAllBack for years now for the sole reason of being able to have my task bar on the left side of my screen.
That 49 Sounds like a rich people's problem.
very good, didnt know about this! coming from linux and the lack of personalization is excruciating in w11
I'm so glad I got recommended this video

Very informative. So what is your main shell/utility program that you use?
StartAllBack, I made a video about it too.
@@memstechtips thanks i'l take a look
@@memstechtips what would you say the main differences are comparing the two?
Does Windhawk have to be running in the background at all times for the mods to function?
Is there a way to use this program to move the start menu taskbar to the top of the screen instead of the bottom?
No not with this program. You can use ExplorerPatcher or StartAllBack for that. Check the other videos in the playlist.
Did they remove that? Always thought it was a in build Feature used it a few time but didnt try to in a few years
Is there any way to get windows 11 style quick settings on windows 10?
How does the utility handle windows updates? Does it also need to be updated each time there is a security patch for example?
what do you use over windhawk? 9:00
Do you know how to adjust the width of start menu in the start menu styler?
In version 23h2 theres a bug where the start menu is covering the whole screen, it can fix by end the task of windhawk
im on windows 10, the one to resize the taskbar icons and tray icon only works on windows 11.
Don't want to be a troll, but read the video title with the thumbnail: "EVERY *Windows 11* User Should Know About THIS Free Customization Utility!"
Damn Im prolly gonna get this program just for the volume control alone. I use StartAllBack already, will this Windhawk work alongside with it?
7:20 Is it possible to have only "All apps" start menu?
Yes.. option for always open start menu with all apps there..
For that, I recommend you have a look at this video: ua-cam.com/video/tr9C1ZzHyTI/v-deo.htmlsi=dwVbNupxLmTs2QP3&t=717
