ExplorerPatcher

This project aims to enhance the working environment on Windows.

How to?

  1. Follow the antivirus configuration instructions and download the latest version of the setup program in here.
    • Choose ep_setup.exe if your device uses an Intel or AMD processor, or ep_setup_arm64.exe if your device uses a Snapdragon processor.
  2. Run the installer. It will automatically prompt for elevation, after which it will close explorer.exe and install the necessary files. When done, you will see the desktop again and the Windows 10 taskbar.
  3. Right-click the taskbar and choose "Properties".
  4. To change the taskbar style, go to the "Taskbar" section and look for "Taskbar style".
  5. To use the Windows 10 Start menu, go to the "Start menu" section and change the Start menu style to Windows 10.
  6. To use the Windows 10 Alt+Tab, go to the "Window switcher" section and change the "Window switcher (Alt+tab) style" to Windows 10.
  7. Feel free to check other configuration options.

That's it!

Note: Some features may be unavailable on some Windows versions.

Uninstalling

  • Right click the taskbar then click "Properties" or search for "ExplorerPatcher", and go to "Uninstall" section or
  • Use "Programs and Features" in Control Panel, or "Apps and features" in the Settings app or
  • Run ep_setup.exe /uninstall or
  • Rename ep_setup.exe to ep_uninstall.exe and run that.

Updating

  • The program features built-in updates: go to "Properties" - "Updates" to configure, check for and install the latest updates. Learn more here.
  • Download the latest version's setup file for x64 or setup file for ARM64 and simply run it.
