Luckily, with our guide on how to make Windows 11 look like 10, you don’t have to give Windows 10 up, even when it’s defunct and no longer receiving updates.

I don't use windows 11, but sadly I have to use windows 10 on my newest desktop and laptop because there are no windows 7 drivers available for them. To make 10 look like 7 I use Classic Shell, they have stopped developing it a few years back, but it is still downloadable and works for windows 10, I haven't tried to use it on anyone's windows 11 but I can't see why it wouldn't work to make it look and work as well as windows 7 did.

Classic Shell

Why have 11 to look like 10?.
Seems pointless. I only moved to 10 from 7 for drivers and direct x12.
I wouldnt go to 11 just to make it look like 10 unless it had some added bonuses
WIn 10 serves me well.

Well yes if it came with 11... which this post will apply to anyone buying a pc with win 11 already installed
but its pointless upgrading to win 11 to make it look like win 10.

Im probably in the other majority of thousands of people that will say its uselss unless you have win 11 already installed

I'm new on this forum, but I stumbled upon this thread while looking for ways to customize my Windows 10. Apologies for reviving an old thread, but I couldn't resist adding my two cents! I recently switched back to Windows after a long stint on Mac, and I gotta say, I missed the familiarity of Windows 10.
