Windows Vista Menu Appearance

Ilya Byk · Jan 10, 2010

Hi all. Would somebody please tell me how to fix this issue?? As you see I have "Windows Aero" selected and applied, but my menus still show up as I would have "Windows Classic" applied. You can see in this shot that I already pressed "Apply", but the menus didn't change. Dragging windows all over the screen is fine, but this menu is not. How do I fix this? Thank You All

@ Ilya Byk,

Microsoft did not reserve a GUI option to make context menus "Aero". When you switch to Aero theme, the menus do not appear much different from what they look with Basic or Classic theme. You can customize them these ways:

1. Control Panel => System => Advanced system settings => Performance options => Adjust for best appearance

2. You may want to use a 3rd party application like Link Removed - Invalid URL or Link Removed - Invalid URL. to make menus transparent and add thicker shadows to them.

Absolutely, it looks fine.

It all depends on what type of file you right-click on.

If you click on a video or audio file, you'll get a slightly different menu.

The first menu is a shortcut, the second a graphic
