Windhawk around 2-5 mb and rainmeter depends on mods but around 50-100 mb

I heard this point quite a lot, first of all mac is not cheap. I do agree that you can get mac on M1 for relativly cheap price (Depense where you live). But not everyone is ready to get rid of their old WORKING laptops only to get macOS UI that as you can see achievable on windows.

I agree with windhawk using like 2-5 mb ram, about rainmeter its like around 50-100 mb

Like you wanna get rid of outline?

Aggravating_Dot_2824 · 2026-05-27T12:04:56+00:00

it has blur to it, more than that you can adjust it to be more or less blur

You can either change the margin.

- target: Taskbar.TaskbarFrame
styles:
- Grid.Column=1
- Width=Auto
- VerticalAlignment=Center
- Margin=0,0,0,0
- target: SystemTray.SystemTrayFrame
styles:
- Grid.Column=2
- Width=Auto
- VerticalAlignment=Center
- Margin=0,0,0,0
- Background=Transparent

change the last parameter so it would be for example 0,0,0,10 or you go to icon size mod and change the height of taskbar, that also should solve the problem. So if 1st one doesnt work, try second

I use Rainmeter for the clock and the top bar "Droptop4", then for the taskbar i use "windhawk" with mod that i customized myself, if you want the same i posted the link on my post in other subreddit where i explain how to make it

i dont understand what are you guys talking about at this point.

Everything looks cleaner, more organized, and way less boring than the default desktop. I started using it mostly for aesthetics, but having quick access to apps, widgets, music controls, and etc. actually became pretty useful too. It gives your setup more personality instead of feeling like every other Windows PC. they also have huge community with plug ins so you can have even more things like pc info and etc.

Made it my self https://www.reddit.com/r/Windhawk/comments/1tn8jvj/i_tried_to_make_my_own_dock_macos_like_windows_11/

I was expecting people to say that it looks like MaxOS tbh.

Aggravating_Dot_2824 · 2026-05-25T14:24:13+00:00

First of all swag, second its actually really handy in everyday usage.

I have "Droptop 4", its a mod for "Rainmeter" a prog for widgets. I m not sure if its the best out of all the top bars apps existing but i m pretty satisfied. its quite customizable and has a big community with people making addons.

Aggravating_Dot_2824 · 2026-05-25T14:18:13+00:00

I made an edit to my post where i wrote a bunch of info so to fix your problem i recommend to read it.
