Are you using a shell replacement for the XP style titlebars and taskbar?

Calmira was pretty impressive for a taskbar-based shell, but I don't recall doing a titlebar swap.

Its probably just winXP running in a VM.

[–] Dungrad@feddit.org 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

They say it's windows 3.11 in the post. 😅

It's 2025, misinformation is rampant. And here you're all acting like we can just trust that this is Windows 3.11 and not XP running a VM. Wake up sheeple!

Edit: /s needed?

Yes, it is indeed being emulated, under Linux. But for real that's actually DOS 6.22 and Windows 3.11, with the Calmira XP shell, and basically every other mod/patch I could find and throw at it. Running in DOSBox, but not using their DOS, it's actually booted from a true MS-DOS hard drive image.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Nope, that's legit Windows 3.11, with Calmira XP shell and all the mods, fixings and dressings to look almost exactly like XP.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Not just the window title but also partially buttons and the scrollbar.

Was Window Blinds already available for windows 3.1?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Not quite. Calmira XP shell, plus numerous other 3rd party hacks and mods.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Yep, it's Windows 3.11 with Calmira XP shell, complete with all the mods and fixings to look almost identical to XP. Including proper icons, titlebar buttons, startup and shutdown screens, sound effects, wallpapers, and even an alternate version with the Energy Bliss glass style Start button.

Also, Space Cadet Pinball runs on it too!

[–] trigonated@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

According to some user-submitted screenshot on Calmira's website, you can use PatchDrv to replace the bitmaps of the titlebar buttons.

Not sure who downvoted you, but you're absolutely right 👍
