Frequently Asked Questions: 1.) I cannot read clearly anything in the title bar of some window for some reason. How to fix it?
A.) Windows 8.1 came with a strange issue (perhaps a limitation on purpose like always) which makes custom visual styles have issues. To fix it, you will need to download and install AeroGlass by BigMuscle.
2.) I get weird looking menu in Taskbar. How to fix it?
A.) Make sure you have installed StartIsBack.
3.) Windows is not activated, why?
A.) We are not creating any pre-activated windows releases anymore. Please use a genuine product key to show support to Microsoft or find other way ;).
4.) Why are there no drivers integrated by default?
A.) No drivers were integrated on purpose. If you want to integrate any amount of drivers, Create a folder under C:eckonsteam\drivers and copy each of your driver into a seperate folder.
5.) Why are there no updates integrated by default?
A.) No updates were integrated on purpose due to old updates gets removed or a new update comes after every few week and causes damage to customized system files. You can integrate custom updates by copying all of the updates (msu format only) to C:eckonsteam\updates folder.
