Windows 10: Bringing back legacy clock/wifi menu on W10 Anniversary

I know reg keys don't work, but is there any DLLs? Programs? Not a fan of W10 UI.

Yep, this used to work, but since they took out JNW in the W10 anniversary update, you can still put download JNW, but they took out the ability to integrate into the printer menu as a virtual printer driver. Does anybody know how to bring that back?

 

BRING BACK W10 START MENU

is any way have both and switch between...?

 

Not sure which dialogue you're referring to.. something in the control panel perhaps? (e.g. Windows key + X, click control panel).

 

Classic Wi-Fi menu is gone already in Windows 8.

 

No, not dialogue. I mean the menu you get when you click on the time in the taskbar. Same for wifi menu, but with the connection menu.

Was it? I'm sure there was a way to bring it back.

 

Clock: as it says in this article, this hack no longer works post 1607 build:

Repeat- it no longer works (apparently).

 

For the 'Classic' Network Menu:
Navigate in the Windows Registry to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Control Panel\Settings\Network
in the right pane of Network, change the value of ReplaceVan DWORD to 2
(you'll need to take full ownership of the Network key)

 

Yeah, I've seen that. What I'm hoping for is maybe a dll to change?

Thanks for helping, but I'm looking for the Windows 7 menu.

 

You would have to compile a whole new Manifest for that, it's part of the Immersive UI now.

 

Ah, that I probably could not do. I have no experience in programming such things (best I can do is a random number generator in Python )

Though, I might look into it...
