Some basic instructions for using this package from the packager's perspective:
Xfce Settings
- Appearance -> Style: set either Windows XP, Windows Classic or Professional; make sure the switch "Set matching Xfwm4 theme..." is enabled
- Appearance -> Icons: set Luna
- Appearance -> Fonts: set Tahoma Regular for Default and Lucida Console Regular for Monospace
- Windows Manager -> Style tab: set same as for Appearance (if not changed already)
- Mouse and Touchpad -> Theme: set Windows XP Standard (or with shadows)
- Settings Editor -> xsettings -> change entry SoundThemeName to "Windows XP Default"
Login greeter:
- In LightDM config file (/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf) uncomment and set option "greeter-session=wintc-logonui"
Win XP tasbar:
- [! ! !] Note it's not a panel theme but a separate executable
- If you want to use it along Xfce panels just add Xfce Settings -> Session and Startup -> Application Autostart entry with command "wintc-taskband", set trigger to "on login"
- If you want to disable panel you can uninstall it or there's a trick:
- Login again, ensure Win XP taskbar shows up
- Go to Xfce Settings -> Session and Startup -> Currect Session
- Select "xfce4-panel" and Quit Program, after that click Save Session
- Also the "Automatically save session on logout" in General tab should be disabled
- Panel state will be preserved unless you override the session
Applications

Hello, I'm very new to Arch and I wanted to get this on my Arch distro, but I only get XP Window borders, the rest is missing, what do I have to do? Thank you and sorry for bothering.
