Unglass
Unglass is a super handy app for Windows 7 that makes your title bar, borders, and taskbar lose their transparency when you maximize a window. If you're looking to ditch that glassy look, this is your go-to tool!
What Does Unglass Do?
Windows 7 lets you change how the taskbar and window borders look. You can even turn off the glass effect through the Control Panel, but let’s be real—that takes time! With Unglass, all you need to do is run the app, and voilà! Your windows will have solid borders when they’re in fullscreen mode.
The Taskbar's Transformation
Not only does your window border change, but the taskbar gets a makeover too! It turns opaque while the window is maximized. Once you minimize or resize it, everything goes back to how it was before. No fuss!
No Installation Needed!
The best part? Unglass is portable—no installation required! Just open it up and let it work its magic right away. But keep in mind, there’s no fancy interface here. If you want to change colors or other settings, you’ll still need to head over to the Control Panel.
Using Unglass with Other Features
If you've got other Windows animations running at the same time, it's best not to use Unglass. It might not work as well if there are too many effects going on.
How to Close Unglass
Since there's no interface, if you want to close Unglass, you'll need to do it through the Windows Task Manager. Just a quick heads-up!
A Throwback Feature
The idea behind Unglass is simple: bring back that transparency-loss feature from Windows Vista for Windows 7 users. So every time you maximize a window or switch it to fullscreen mode, your title bar and taskbar will go from semi-transparent to totally opaque. And unlike turning off transparency in Control Panel, using Unglass keeps that glass effect when windows are minimized.
