Some features in this config depend on PRs that haven't been merged yet. The configs degrade gracefully — everything works on stock releases, you just won't see these extras until the PRs land:
| Feature | PR | Fallback on stock release |
|---|---|---|
| GPU stats (temp, usage) | glzr-io/zebar#257 | GPU section hidden |
| CPU temperature | glzr-io/zebar#257 | Temp not shown, usage still works |
To use these features before the PRs are merged, build Zebar from the PR branch and replace the binary at C:\Program Files\glzr.io\Zebar\zebar.exe.
These can't be fully automated and need to be done once after running the scripts:
Download and install JetBrainsMono Nerd Font from nerdfonts.com. Right-click the .ttf files and select "Install for all users".
Install these mods from the Windhawk GUI after installing Windhawk:
- Windows 11 Start Menu Styler — select the "TranslucentStartMenu" theme
- Taskbar height and transparency (by m417z) — set taskbar opacity to 0
Required for CPU temperature in the Zebar status bar. After installing, launch it as administrator and enable:
- Options > Remote Web Server > Run
- Options > Run On Windows Startup
- Options > Start Minimized
Optionally install PowerToys (winget install Microsoft.PowerToys) and set the PowerToys Run hotkey to Alt+` in settings.
Go to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar and enable Automatically hide the taskbar.
Install Wallpaper Engine from Steam for animated wallpapers. The startup script creates a shortcut so it launches silently on boot.
All bindings use the Alt key as the modifier.
