Windows 10: How to change Windows 10 button style?

How to change button style like on the higher pic? Mine is on lower pic. Its much cleaner and edges are thinner. Im using latest version 20H1




:)

 

The win10 tray style is changed to win7.

Hello, unfortunately your query is unclear.

The title suggests you have Windows 10, and a tray style that is Win 7's and don't want it. However, your screenshot suggests what you actually dislike is Win 10's tray style, and want Win 7's.

You can simply drag icons from the notification area to your taskbar, and v. versa. No need for a Customise button.

And you can change which icons appear here:



Rt click taskbar, taskbar settings.


Appearance: anyway, this is mine:




I use Aeroglass:
Aero Glass for Win8+



- which changes the borders.

There are many things that are different from e.g. Win 7- some you can change, some you have to live with if you use Win 10.

Hi Selmo,

You can resize the window caption buttons using the Registry Editor (regedit). Please make sure that you're signed in as the administrator before performing the steps below. Also, this section, method, or task contains steps that
tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore
the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to backup and restore the registry in Windows 10, refer to this
support article.

1. Click the Start button, type regedit and then press
   Enter.
2. If prompted, choose Yes or enter the administrator password.
3. Navigate to the key below.
   • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics
4. Select WindowsMetrics.
5. On the right-side pane, double-click the CaptionHeight string to modify it.
6. The default value for the string is -330. You can change it to
   -120 to reduce the size of the caption buttons.
7. Click OK, close the Registry Editor and then restart your PC for the changes to take effect.

See the image below for a comparison between
-330 and -120.





Changing the overall visual look of the Windows Explorer is not advised as it may cause system corruption that may render your machine unusable. If you still want to continue, you can search for a third-party software that can perform this procedure.
NOTE: Perform this operation
at your own risk.

The workaround in modifying the caption buttons through the Registry
Editor might be laborious for you and other users. Thus, I encourage you to submit a feedback to our engineers using the
Feedback Hub. It would be a great addition to Windows 10 if this feature is added on
