(I posted this already on reddit but maybee i am more lucky in this forum)

 

Sorry if my english is bad i don't use it often.

 

Right now I'm learning about coding and stuff. I want to create my own Windows theme. I like Nier Automata so I thought why not create a Nier Windows theme. To do this, I use tools like Rainmeter, Taskbar x, Notepad and other programs. When I have a problem, I google it. When I'm looking for something like how to change the look of folders or how to change the folder layout, I only get results like how to change the background color, how to change the folder icon, or how to rearrange the folder within a specific folder. The only useful search I got was this: https://www.reddit.com/r/customization/comments/ou0zqy/editing_window_top_bars/.

In this Reddit post he talks about, if you wanted to change the Windows top bar it would change some other things as well, and this is where it gets a little confusing for me. He linked a tutorial on changing Windows themes. The Themes you could get that way are allready finnished, meaning you are stuck with whatever comes with it i believe. I am pretty sure it is possible to make your own theme but i dont know how to search for the right thing. For example how to change the top bar form the folders in windows and not the whole theme in windows.

Not knowing much, I'm assuming that if you can change the Taskbar with Taskbar X , then you can change the folder with a program aswell.

 

It would be cool if someone could explain how to go about it, not just show me what you would do. It's like teaching someone to fish, not just giving them one fish.

I want to make it that if i open folders in windows it would look like this or somewhat in that style:

r/Windows10 - Windows Theme

 

My Desktop looks like This right now:

 

r/Windows10 - Windows Theme

my goal is kind of like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/nier/comments/gpmncu/i_built_myself_a_nier_automata_themed_desktop/

( I know that his folder are Normal looking)

 

Thanks for any help.
