This is a modified version of the OpenConsole project from the Windows Terminal to allow client-edge style on Conhost V2, and classic frames.
- Download conhost.exe from the latest release
- Take ownership of and rename conhost.exe in System32
- Put the downloaded conhost.exe in its place
By default, only the client-edge style will be enabled. To enable the classic
frames, open the Registry Editor, create HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console\ClassicTheme
as a DWORD, and set it to 1.
- Clone the repository with
git clone https://github.com/aubymori/ConhostEX
cd ConhostEX
, and rungit submodule update --init --recursive
- Open the OpenConsole.sln solution in Visual Studio 2022
- Make sure your build configuration is how you want it (most likely Release x64)
- Right click the "Conhost" group, and click build
I really did not feel like stripping the codebase of unnecessary stuff, so the entire Microsoft Terminal codebase is here too. Sorry if that bothers you.
