This will require a re-work of the color scheme since Windows 7 cannot use Metro colors. Not sure if it will need to be a separate skin, or if I can make it built-in to the current skin via a toggle.

Ok, I've looked into this some more. It turns out it might not be so simple as adding an option, as Open-Shell may spit out an incompatibility message regardless.

I have tested this some more and have yet to make it work on the existing menus. If it turns out to be impossible in a standard release, I will make an as-is version of both styles for Windows 7 specifically. I myself would love to see this possible in some form, so it will definitely happen one way or another :)

Fluent-Metro7.zip

I managed to put something together. This is just the classic style(s) for now. Anything with the accent color doesn't work in this version, so I just replaced it with gray. I haven't checked everything, but it should at least be compatible.

No problem. I'll try to make some more updated versions once I get the current ones to a more stable position.

I put together an updated version in line with the 1.5.1 release:

Fluent-Metro_7.zip

This one has both the Classic and 7 styles, and I've tried to update the options to reflect what is actually working on Windows 7. I believe the XML from the 1.5.1 release should work, but there's a possibility that it won't.
