I am using the latest start 11 and windowblinds 11.  I am using Psycho v.5, my favorite skin, that I reworked for windows 10.  Is there an option to add a png to skinstudio to skin the explorer tabs.  I would hate to give up psycho- such a beautiful piece of work from skoriginals.  If I can't fix this skin (originally from 2007), can I start with a win 11 skin and replace the pngs with the ones from psycho.  

I really appreciate your reply.  I hate the new explorer tabs.  Leave it to microsoft for "updating" and giving no option to disable it.

I will look into it.  Thanks again for your help.

This is an old skin (2006), so could you just try to check "Do not use per pixel frames" in settings to see if that makes any difference. Checking that has solved issues several times for titlebars for me using older wbs. I'm not sure it will make any difference, but worth a try.

"to make special titlebar for explorer and notepad with tab. So that at least the tab don't look out of place when applied WB skin."

thank you

I want to thank everyone for help with the windows 11 explorer tabs not skinning.  I took all the advice and worked on it a couple of days, but in the end I couldn't make it work.  I decided to take the advice of the first responder and uninstall explorer tabs with vivetool.  Now that the tabs are gone, Psycho works great.  I first downloaded and installed it in 2006, and it works as well on windows 11 as it did on windows xp.
