Explorer Patcher 22621.4317.67.1​

Caution
Microsoft and other major antivirus vendors have flagged ExplorerPatcher as "malware". This is likely due to Microsoft's hatred against ExplorerPatcher, not because it contains a virus or such. Flags from Microsoft usually spread to other antivirus vendors.
Please include the following files and folders in your antivirus' exclusion list to prevent issues due to antivirus detections:
  • C:\Program Files\ExplorerPatcher
  • %APPDATA%\ExplorerPatcher
  • C:\Windows\dxgi.dll
  • C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.StartMenuExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy
  • C:\Windows\SystemApps\ShellExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy
For Defender, you can run the following script in PowerShell as an administrator:
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "C:\Program Files\ExplorerPatcher"
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "$env:APPDATA\ExplorerPatcher"
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "C:\Windows\dxgi.dll"
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.StartMenuExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy"
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "C:\Windows\SystemApps\ShellExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy"
  • If you are downloading from this page, please temporarily disable real-time protection or save to a folder excluded from antivirus scans.
  • Failure to exclude ExplorerPatcher's files may result in inability to install/uninstall EP and explorer.exe being unable to start.
  • If you do not trust this process, please refrain from using ExplorerPatcher and look for alternatives instead.
  • Microsoft, if you are reading this, please reconsider the detections as

A little request from us: EP's taskbar implementation is the only way to have the authentic Windows 10 taskbar experience on 24H2, and its development took a lot of effort for 8 consecutive months. It would be really, really appreciated if you can

Known issues we will address in the short term:


  • Changing weather icon pack to "Microsoft" has no effect.
  • On Nickel (Windows 11 22H2/23H2), when the new Windows 11 Start menu is enabled, using Windows 10 or Windows 10 (ExplorerPatcher) taskbar will crashloop explorer.exe.

Explorer Patcher for Windows 11 26100.8457.70.1​

  • Important: Fixed 10 taskbar and 10 Start menu crashing on 26220.8474 (Beta) and 26300.8493 (Experimental).
  • Please update EP as soon as possible to ensure future updates run smoothly, otherwise explorer.exe will not run with EP's 10 taskbar and StartMenuExperienceHost.exe will not run when 10 Start menu is selected.
  • Those builds have removed remnants of the 10 Start menu in StartTileData.dll. Consequently, the 10 Start menu option has been removed on those builds and future builds without the required stuff in the DLL. (bf36cde, 8a5b8ba)
  • If you want it back, the temporary solution would be to manually swap C:WindowsSystem32StartTileData.dll with a version from 26xxx.8457 (x64; ARM64). But do not expect this to work for long.
  • We are confident that this is not the end of the road yet for 10 Start menu. Stay tuned for updates.
  • Highlight: Fixed Windows 10 battery flyout crashing on 25951+. (659c2d0)
  • As a side effect, the network flyout buttons had to be reverted to pre-24H2. Fixes #4691.
  • Changes to "Primary taskbar location on screen" in EP properties now reflect immediately. (6c9b41d)
  • Windows 11 taskbar autohide is no longer modified on Explorer boot. (e6becc9)
  • "Open Start in All apps by default" is now hidden when the new 11 Start menu is enabled. (#4648) (d8f1d1c)
  • Windows 10 Start menu on 21996-22000.51 now no longer crashes. (39ac219)
  • Fixed regedit.exe crashing when switching to thumbnail view in the import/export registry file dialog. (#3940) (80be85d)
  • Updated pattern matching code to support recent builds especially with 26H1 ARM64. (677fd9f, e641e0a, e77123a, 3c8e79f, 854770b, 04dd52b, ce22476, baf0fdb, b532116, c0adee2, eefa0bf, 420e112, 3be4f3f, 1bf0d81, 47d7481, 31d2c23, bdf95c3, fe8cc2b, 1be3c79)
  • Improved efficiency on ARM64.
  • Added Greek translations. Thanks @KonVetsos!
  • ep_taskbar:
  • Now supports all 43 Windows 11 languages.
  • Fixed reimplementation mistakes in system tray and some other places.
  • [For mod developers] Changed ep_taskbar's DLL names from numbers to the codename of the first major release a single variant supports. (cc36e34)
  • [For mod developers] TrayUI no longer inherits Microsoft::WRL::RuntimeClass; vtables are now stable on builds with multiple ITrayUI revisions like ep_taskbar.ge.dll (formerly ep_taskbar.5.dll).

  • Introduced a reimplemented 10 Start menu tile layout engine that was removed in 26xxx.8474. (

    )
    • Note that the restoration is partial. Tiles can overlap when pinned not by dragging from apps list; this can be worked around by restarting StartMenuExperienceHost.exe or explorer.exe as a whole to repair the layout.
    • Stay tuned on

      and the Discord server for updates.
  • Added an executable name blacklist to prevent shell extension from loading in certain applications. (
