Sorry I haven't try the VTP yet but Im wondering is there any custom installation in VTP, instead of installing all those Boot screen and Patch Uxtheme that I've done it at my young age tongue.gif , I just request for the Vista icons patching and Animation progress.

*BOLD - summarize laugh.gif

Suppose to ask this in VTP thread, I think here is the same too. You guys are just too active in this XP Vista transforming till several about similar threads opened.

I have never used VTP, but I'm assuming the sidebar provided in VTP is Windows Sidebar. In that case: to re-open sidebar, look for the directory in program files it should be named "Windows sidebar". the sidebar.exe file is in there.

To hide taskbar, simply right click on it and go to properties, under the tasbar tab check "auto hide taskbar". Just scroll your mouse over it to make it reappear again.

The sidebar in VTP 6.0 is not Windows Sidebar (if you're talking about the real one from Vista.) rather it has Thoosje's Vista sidebar. (didn't really like it by the way.)

Kay gotcha. Coming back to victorlaw's question: so since VTP's sidebar is Thoosje's sidebar, I think there is a shortcut to the sidebar in the start menu for you to access whenever you wanna re-open it. If you want it to run everytime you login just drag the .exe into your "startup" folder in the start menu.

Alrighty. Juan Perez's RC2 skin is nice and all, but since the forward and backward button are actually part of the titlebar, it doesn't serve any functionality and it looks real ugly when you maximize any window.

IF you're afraid of bugs and such, try my ANOTHER alternative method that I mentioned in Post #6 in the FAQ section.
