Yeah, I've had a look at the theme editor for WindowBlinds.  I've thought of making my own themes, but haven't really take the time to learn & delve into it.

And I think Stardock does make some other useful utilities, although they're not all unique.  As far as the utility that scans hard drives to see what's taking up space, I hadn't seen Stardock's, but if that does what I think it does, I know if WinDirStat (which is free) and TreeSize, which has a free and a paid verison.

Stardock also has a Start Menu replacement for Windows 11, called Start11, which I'm using, and I like it.  It's paid though, and there are equivalent free tools available.  I was using Classic Shell (a Start Menu replacement) for a while; when Windows 11 was released, Classic Shell didn't work anymore, and that morphed into another project called Open Shell.  I think that's a fairly decent Start Menu replacement, and it's free.  There are others too.
