    Probably few days after update the look of the Windows changed, then went back to previous look


    Hello, 12 August my windows 10 got an update called KB5029244. Everything looked as usual till 15 August. But when i turned on my laptop on 16 August, the design of desktop looked a bit different, almost like windows 11. All of my files saved at desktop dissapeared, only one row of apps stayed. Also the browsers started to download extensions again and i had to log back in. But after i turned off pc and turned it on few days later my pc looked exactly like before that "update". Is it common situation or should I be worried?

    Windows Looks.

    Hi, I have always loved the looks of the previous versions of windows (Ex: Windows 7, Vista, XP) and was thinking this as a suggestion to implement an application to allow users to change the windows looks without third party software.

    change windows 10 look to windows 7 look

    ... yes, and no.



    If this is strictly a 'look & feel' issue . . . my suggestion is to start getting used to Windows 10 and getting around in it. Things changed with Windows 8/8.1 and they barely went back to a more familiar 'old school' interface with Windows 10 and I wouldn't
    expect much more change back to the old ways.



    Otherwise - Google is better than asking here. If you insist on hanging on...
