Windows 11 unofficial mod claims not to alter crucial system files while making UI better

Microsoft has been enhancing the visual appeal of its desktop operating system since the launch of Windows Vista, leading to the development of specialized hardware features like WDDM GPU schedulers. Users of Windows 11 have reported occasional sluggish performance, prompting Microsoft to acknowledge these issues and commit to improvements. A paid study claims Windows 11 outperforms Windows 10, though evidence is lacking. The Windows 11 24H2 update has reportedly increased responsiveness for some users, even on unsupported hardware. Rebound 11 is a third-party application designed to enhance the Windows 11 user interface while maintaining system security and avoiding changes to essential system files. It allows for easy reversibility of changes and does not implement system-wide customizations, preserving MSSTYLES system files. Users need a system with at least 4GB of memory and 2GB of storage, along with a DirectX 12 compatible graphics processor. Caution is advised before installation, including backing up important data and potentially using a virtual machine for testing. Rebound 11 is available for download from its GitHub repository.
