Windows Close Button Resizer is a freeware from door2windows that allows you to resize the width of the close button in Windows 7.

How To Use:

Just run the tool, set the width and click Change. To restore the default size, click Restore.

It only works with when Aero and aero blur is enabled.

Credit goes to Ave for the original command-line tool.

For whatever reason, I'm unable to resize my close button. Doesn't matter what I set the value to, it doesn't seem to do anything. Running it as an administrator doesn't even bring up the initial dialog warning, and even on the one occasion it did, it still won't resize the button.

Similar thing happened with your start orb changer, but I tracked down an older version which seemed to work just fine.
Any ideas? My start button has (for an unknown reason) been resized to the same size the minimize and maximize, and on smaller windows (with only the 'x' button) the width seems to be far too narrow.

I used this tool to make the close button the size of the restore and minimize/maximize buttons!

It partially works, I can set the values and it changes, but any digits after the comma will have no effect, so I can only change between 1, 2 ,3 ,4 etc.
Might be because of the skin I use (Adobulated), or is this the same behaviour for you?

=Kishan-Bagaria Jan 13, 2013

Nope, this works fine for me and many others. Maybe it is related to your region settings. Does it show a comma instead of a period?

~TimeBreaker1987 Jan 14, 2013

Wait, that's what I wrote as a reply to my own commment

I guess you didn't read it when you wrote this

=Kishan-Bagaria Jan 14, 2013

Yeah. Only your original comment came up in my message center.

Oh, I figured out why it's not working for me. Since I use the German language pack and we use a comma as decimal mark instead of a dot, the conversion is not working correctly, it basically removes all digits after the comma to round it up as a working number. Using a dot as decimal mark is not working though, so what I have to do is change language pack in Windows 7 to english, log off and in again, use your tool (it throws up an error (bug in comma dot conversion I guess), but I can proceed), change the decimal to 1.4, apply (works), then change language again back to German.
Kind of an annoying workaround, could you look into your great tool and see if you can catch the kind of decimal mark and eventually convert it?

=Kishan-Bagaria Jan 14, 2013

I'll try to fix this.

~TimeBreaker1987 Jan 14, 2013

Thanks, much appreciated

Thank you so much! After installing a couple of custom themes, my close button suddenly became smaller, and this application just saved it

Your work is seriously great, so many useful applications.
