ThisIsWin11 was my first attempt to enhance somehow the PowerToys productivity apps with some system tools. It was partly based on tweaks of the TweakUIX mentioned here. Somehow I prefer this standalone version more, so I decided to push it to public on Github. My private version had all other tweaks integrated, so the code base including all tweaks of this app was largely taken from the last stable version of the TIW11 OpenTweaks module.
...and yes, this version also brings some advantage over TIW11. The stone-age ui requires less resources and of course flickers a bit smoother on the screen and runs at time of writing also on Win10.
Tweak UI was part of Windows XP PowerToys and one of the most known Windows PowerToys to tweak the User Interface (UI). With this tool you are able to change settings, which aren't reachable within Windows. Since the release of Windows 95, Microsoft has made available a set of "PowerToys", which is a suite of extra little utilities that Microsoft feels power users would appreciate. Now, after about 25 years, Microsoft has resurrected PowerToys for Windows 10 and Windows 11. But my favorite tool is still missing...
Tweak UI has never been seen since Windows XP again.
I brought it back as an internal tool for myself a year ago. This is also where my app ThisIsWin11 came from.
Today I'm releasing this little standalone tool under the name TweakUIX. Its pumped with customization features and also options to remove unnecessary fat from Windows or even installing software packages.

gHacks Review:
The user interface is based on the classic Tweak UI app.
Nothing modern, fluent, Mica and UWP alike here. But it's not supposed to be.
The app is supposed to be simple, small in size, modular and understandable for everyone.
Just head over to the Github page and download the TweakUIX app. It is completely transparent and open source.
