  1. Since Winero Tweaker is becoming a little bit bloated could you make it to save bookmarks in a file or to read the bookmarks from the folder it started from? Because if you bookmark items on one PC and just copy to USB and run it on another PC the bookmarks are not there anymore.

  2. Best all in one application. It is the best windows customisation app. But I think that now it’s time for UWP (APPX) version of this app.

      1. Just as a friend, have a look at “Accent Applicator” app in windows store. Does it violates limitations of UWP apps. It tweaks the color of selection area, buttons in windows, itsn’t it intresting ?

        Same can be your app…

        1. the Accent color is not a problem
          The Tweaker app comes with a number of features which cannot be implemented in UWP.

      1. About UWP, it’s not a matter of necessary or not: it is impossible. The platform is limited and you cannot have something advanced like Winaero Tweaker on it, period.

    1. It was planned, but was not finished. I had to release this version to resolve the issues listed under bug fixes.

    1. Try out OldNewExplorer (http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/170375-oldnewexplorer-118/). It has an ability you’re seeking for, and it uses memory patching so no files on your system are replaced.

  3. Sergey, it’d be amazing if you could release an app that automatically saves each new Windows Spotlight wallpaper to a folder specified. The program would be even greater if only the liked ones would be stored.

  4. Hi, I assume that Winaero Tweaker 0.7.0.1 includes the features introduced in previous versions? I was looking at 0.6.0.3 (disable Cortana). I assume this is included in 0.7.0.1? Second question: is the current version up-to-date with the changes made by Windows in the recent Creators Version of Windows 10? Thanks very much for your efforts.

  5. Thanks for your quick response. Another question: I was looking at installing Classic Shell in addition to Winaero Tweaker. Are they compatible?

  6. Hello Sergey.
    First of all a huge thank you for such a great tool! I just wanted to note, that in the current version of winaero tweaker (0.7.0.2) the function: classic UAC dialog does not work. I would be glad if it would run again!

    Thank you!

    Windows 10 v.15063.413

    1. It looks like Microsoft has killed this classic UAC feature completely. I have to hide it in the user interface.
