  1. For those using Open Shell on Windows, is there a way to revert back to the Windows 11-style Start menu layout? Switching to the XP layout is really cool — brings back a lot of memories — and I remember using it back in the day. Really nice experience. Just curious if there's a way to keep the Windows 11 look while still using Open Shell.

  2. #Nvidia Says #OpenClaw Is To #AgenticAI What #GPT Was To #Chatbots
    Nvidia is hanging a range of security and privacy controls around OpenClaw and calling #NemoClaw, a stack that can install the vendor’s Nemotron agentic #AI models and its #OpenShell, a runtime that includes a sandbox and which will make autonomous agents – what are becoming known as “claws” – safer to deploy and more scalable by enforcing security, network, and privacy guardrails.

  3. @slashdot oh yay. :seriously:
    I hope #OpenShell creates a classic taskbar replacement soon. One that can show all running tray icons and doesn't need to be restarted to toggle darkmode.

  4. As I am forced to use #windows11: I managed to get back a reasonable start menu with #openshell ; but how do I get a systray clock that is actually readable from a distance?

    In win11 the font is tiny. I tried various time/calendar software and none worked good enough to keep. I just want HH:mm in big digits and a usable calendar to check which day of the week a certain date is...

  5. @ghalfacree I haven't used #Windows for private purposes for a long time, but I'm forced to do so for work. If you have the option, #OpenShell #ClassicShell makes it a little easier to bear: open-shell.github.io/Open-Shel

  6. Yep, with the latest versions of OpenShell and ExplorerPatcher it's exactly as I like it! Yay! 🎉 🥳

  7. Oh, never mind; I just needed to download the latest pre-release (?) version of OpenShell. And I just figured out I was running ExplorerPatcher on my old machine too. God, I'm so silly. 😌 Anyway, it should all work out just fine.

  8. Should have known better than to think I could really have anything. Same model running the same OS, yet OpenShell, which makes my old machine usable practically right out of the box, doesn't work right on the new one after *an hour* of fiddling with it. 😡
