It has 2 compact visual styles and 2 system files (explorerFrame.dll and shell32.dll) for each version (32 bit and 64 bit)
Names of the visual styles/themes:
06 is a light gray version with thin vertical separators and white main surface.
H403 is a light gray version with thin vertical separators and a light blue main surface so for be more relaxing after many hours work to pc.
These themes have been made to be used with the system files that included to this pack, otherwise they will not look as in picture.
-------------------------------
There is 'instructions text' included to the pack, which explains the installation proccess.
====================================
With this theme, with have dissapeared the ribbon from explorer but not from applications that needed the explorer, so for having a white or a black version of those applications, such as 'Paint' etc download my Platinum Theme for Windows 8 rtm [link]
there exist 32 and 64 bit version uiribbon.dll system files for that.
as also :
The construction of the mstyles/visual style in windows 8 rtm, is such so when we have a compact looking style, like that included to this pack, when we use an aplication, we can not have at the top of it a separator line between the menu and titlebar of the application, so i just make only 2 compact themes .
But you can use my Platinum ones that have not this issue, though to Platinum's themes, to explorer, the rebar part, where exist adress bar, search bar and navigation buttons are looking as a separate area.
====================================
Tips
For dissapearing the status bar at the bottom of explorer's window go to Control PanelAll Control Panel Items select 'FOLDER OPTIONS', select 'view' then deselect the 'Show Status bar'
Setting small title font on titlebar : go to Control PanelAppearance and PersonalizationDisplay and set to the section 'Change only the text size' to '9' and select/check the 'bold' option.

nothing> i did before a month a black version but not good for win 8, and now i am to m,y win 7 partition> after a little also my trial period for win 8 finished so i dont find the reason to search anything more+ i do not like win 8 because microsoft made its best to succeed 2 things: made an explorer which can be used from companies workers hard work=older programs but simultaneously to be enough ungly and unmodified [or difficult to be] so new buyers/users to driven to metro applications store=money from the store > that means that 'push' the user to do and see under microsoft's view the operating system> microsoft forget that its big succession, which basically made with win xp , was that the user could modify the appearance but also the toolbars of explorer [to xp]> with vista and after the system have been made more unchangeable, instead transparency added for be more pleasant the looking, in win 8 ,no transparency, no transportation of toolbars, such as addressbar searchbar etc so what? the good are the fast boot, and the use in many kind of prooccessors, though i care more to the flexibility of explorer, so they made this 2003 work as a gift to 2012/13 people, so i cant follow?> also the time for me is very less, to real life priorities are strong. ============ ================
