Hi,

The pictures below show Windows XP Explorer followed by Windows 7 Explorer with Classic Shell installed. The differences between the two seem to be a slightly darker background for the 'Name' column in the XP explorer and a different font used in the two explorers.

Is it possible to change the background for the Name column, using Classic Shell, in the Windows 7 Explorer please? I'd like it to be the same as the XP Explorer.

Also it is possible to change the font for the Windows 7 Explorer and anyone know font is used for the XP Explorer please? The font in XP seems to have taller characters,

Thanks,

Windows XP uses Tahoma font for the most parts of its UI and Windows Vista/7 AFAIK use Segoe UI.

Thanks for your reply.

Does anyone know how to change the font for Windows Explorer in Windows 7 please?

What about the background colour for the Name column?

Thanks,
