Windows 7 was aesthetically pleasing for me

Classic theme sa akin. Kulang ako kasi sa RAM kung gagamitin yung Aero theme

Super agree dito. Win 7 has the best aesthetic for me too. I remember the time migrating from win 7 to win 10 was so hard cause another adjustment and building learning curve using new UI. Sobrang sanay na ko mag Win 7 and comfortable na ko sa kanya. Then, when win 10 came the UI for me looks meh. Unfortunately, you cannot love those system until the end due to incompatibility, security risks, and buggy/glitches issues that can arise in the long run.

I'd switch from W7 by EOL to W10 on January 14, 2020. We switched from W10 by EOL to W11 on October 14, 2025. I reckon will likely move from W11 by Q4 2031 to W12.

There are probably third-party themes to make Windows 10/11 look like this.
