Sorry, I am asking a lot. I updated to the version you sent and it is amazing and smoother, changing the menu now is working fine, But there is one issue, Let's say I applied a Nilesoft shell and then I turned my laptop off when I turned it on again or if I made a restart it will revert to windows 11 default. Is this a known issue?

Thank you

Yep, that's what I wanted to point out too. For whatever reason, after installing the Rectify11, the WhatsApp simply freezes if you use any additional functions. This applies to any of the Rectify11 latest versions from the Actions, but everything works fine with the Rectify11 v3.1 from the Releases section..

fadi9711 commented 7 months ago

Is there will be any fix for whatsapp issue? And also for the context menu issue that whenever you restart it will back to default Windows 11? And I found another problem that existed even with v3.1 I use Samsung Dex it was working normally but after installing rectify 11 now it has colored layer above it so you can see anything tried uninstalling rectify but the problem still, tried re-installing dex also didn't solve it, the only solution was clean windows instal, but when you reinstall rectify the problem will back, So I preferred rectify 11 over Dex. But I will really appreciate if you can look into it.

@fadi9711 Find the Samsung DeX process name, add it to MicaForEveryone's rules, and make sure "Extend Frame into Client Area" is disabled.

@VitalSkib For WhatsApp, try replacing C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Rectified with the one from Version 3.1, reapply themes, and check if the issue persists.

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

It would also be helpful to record the WhatsApp flyout animation, as that will help me locate what animation is used for it.

Thanks, but I tried this before and it didn't help. I'll try this again..

fadi9711 commented 7 months ago

Yeah sure I can help with the WhatsApp issue, but can you guide me how? and Dex issue is fixed thank you so much

Ha, it worked this time, thanks again. 😎👍 I wonder why this didn’t help me in the previous attempt and what’s in the new themes file that WhatsApp doesn’t like..

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib The animation map has changed between the visual styles' revisions. Maybe one of the new animations isn't supported by WhatsApp. Do you know which revision is the first to have the issue? (check version info of the Dark.msstyles file with Resource Hacker). Version 3.1 uses the 214th revision of the dark msstyles. Revision 216 and 220 are the ones publicly released after it. Also, record the flyout opening animation to help me find out what the broken part in the animation map is.

VitalSkib commented 7 months ago

Do you know which revision is the first to have the issue?

No, I cannot tell a more accurate version of Rectify11 when this problem first appeared. Because I didn’t notice it right away, and I didn’t immediately understand what was causing this problem. I thought this was a problem with WhatsApp itself, to be honest.. But I was able to accidentally find out that there was some kind of conflict between WhatsApp and the Rectify11 when I reinstalled Windows for other reasons.

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

Can you record the animation under Version 3.1's themes? It will help me fix it.

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib Please respond as soon as possible.

Animation of what exactly?

VitalSkib commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib Please respond as soon as possible.

If you meant WhatsApp, then here it is. If something else, then please explain more precisely.

@VitalSkib Thanks for the video. Can you also show how it looks on the default Windows theme?

VitalSkib commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib Thanks for the video. Can you also show how it looks on the default Windows theme?

Yes, sure, no problem. Although, to me it looks the same, there is no difference visually. Here with the default Windows Dark Theme applied.

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib That looks the same… and I don't recall editing a Windows 11 animation in the visual styles. However, the newer installer may have installed the legacy version of the styles (designed for build 22000 and older). Can you please download Resource Hacker, open the .msstyles files with it, expand Version Info, and check if it says "legacy structure" or not?

Yes, but one problem, I have the latest version installed (from Actions), but I already replaced the Dark.msstyles file (the latest one from Release) and did not save the original one. Resource Hacker - Dark msstyles

This is what the Resource Hacker shows for this file (the latest one from Release).

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

What about another file like Aero.msstyles?

VitalSkib commented 7 months ago

What about another file like Aero.msstyles?

Sure, here are the rest of the files. And I don’t see this "legacy structure" entry here..

Resource Hacker - DarkColorized msstyles Resource Hacker - Aero msstyles Resource Hacker - Black msstyles

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

So it is really an animation I modified. Try this one (Dark216) and let me know. Dark.msstyles.zip

Yep, this seems to fix the WhatsApp problem, but now it looks broken. Not Dark at all..

Rectify11 Settings

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

No… This is a broken mess consisting of the Windows default theme with some colors derived from Rectify11. Rename the file from Dark216.msstyles to Dark.msstyles and try again.

Of course I renamed this file before using it. But something is obviously wrong with it.. The dark theme just doesn't want to be applied. It either stays on the previous theme used or creates a mess like in my last screenshot. So, for now I will use the file from the latest Release version. PS I'm off for today..

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

@VitalSkib @fadi9711 After extensive testing, I have found out what makes the WhatsApp menus not show: The custom taskbar animation. In more recent versions of Rectify11, the hidden taskbar's animation has been modified to fit more with Windows 11. For some reason, the WhatsApp menus use the animation that is only designed for the taskbar (by Microsoft), and WhatsApp does not like that animation modified. What can we expect from software written by Meta...

@WinExperiments Hi I am on latest version of rectify 11 (3.2.60.0) and I do not have this animation, The theme applied is partial dark. Also I have the context menu issue that still stuck on windows 11 default menu( I apply the Nilesoft menu and restart the explorer, it will be applied, but after restarting the pc it will go back to the default windows 11 menu).

WinExperiments commented 7 months ago

@fadi9711 Doesn't really matter since I'll remove the animation anyway.

nasiftanjim commented 6 months ago

Yes, it still hasn't been fixed, so just use version 3.1 from the Release section.
