Top ribbon

How do I make the top ribbon look like this:

 

 

Thanks!

The top ribbon in what version of Evernote?  My Windows 8 installed desktop version looks pretty much like that...

[GiacomoLaw 134]

In Evernote V.5.8.5 GA on Windows 7.

Hmmn.  Which bit is missing?  You can change the appearance of the window in the View menu..

I would like the ribbon at the top to be the same. In my program, the ribbon is the default Windows one, but in the image, it is custom one, like Office 2013.

Now you're cheating - that picture isn't the same as your original post..      and it's confusing,  because the note title is at the very top of the window,  but there are Windows desktop icons at the bottom on the same coloured wallpaper. I really don't know how that setup can be achieved.  Any other suggestions out there?

The second picture is how it is now, and the first is how I want it.

Ah.  Have you tried uninstall/ reinstall? (Don't forget the obligatory database folder backup)

 

Mine's a vanilla version from a recent install and looks just like your first post.

You can't. We don't support upper-case menus or getting rid of the window caption. Or making the min/max/close buttons look like Win8 when you're on Win7.

(Well, you could make upper case menus by directly editing the compiled resources in the EXE [and/or the resource DLLs in the Intl directory], but that would invalidate the file's digital signature.)

@dconnet:

 

Thanks for jumping in to clarify the matter before anyone needlessly did an uninstall/reinstall.
