Help with OpenShell? <:(

For context before I get into the issues I'm facing:

I am on Windows 11. I am currently running this on a laptop. Idk what the specific specs are or how they will affect how OpenShell runs but whatevr here we go.

I saw a blog a few hours ago that mentioned OpenShell where someone redecorated their PC to look just like WinXP, and I thought "Hey, that's really cool! I wanna try that out!". So I downloaded it and booted it up, downloaded a Windows 7 start icon (I wanted to make it Win7 instead of XP), got a taskbar gradient and set up the classic start menu. What I am having issues with is the taskbar. I have a taskbar texture set up in the settings but it isn't showing at all!!! :(

Idk if it's other settings i didnt enable or what, but I'm at a lost cause here. Does anyone know if there is a solution to this?

I looked at the problem and turns out I need to downgrade to 10. I'll probaby work on doing that before doing anything else with this computer lol
