SunValley (Legacy, formerly 21996) theme for Windows 11 Start Menu Styler

Note

This theme was superseded by the new SunValley theme

This theme will not be updated to support newer versions of Windows 11, and the reason why I decided to keep it here is for archival purposes.

This theme tries to recreate the design that the Windows 11 Start menu and search menu had on early Windows 11 builds, which included:

  • Squared search box
  • No search box on the Start menu
  • Changed 'All' to 'All apps' as it was on older Windows 11 builds
  • Reverted the search icon back to the one from 22000
  • 21370-22000.9-like Acrylic
  • Accent color & light/dark mode support
