Awesome is a customizable Windows topbar that combines desktop status information, application switching and controls. Its appearance can follow wallpaper colors, use a fixed palette or blend with a maximized window's titlebar. Settings and theme files expose different levels of control over the bar's layout and visual treatment.

What this skin includes

  • Includes weather temperature and forecast displays.
  • DesktopColors derives colors from the wallpaper.
  • App menu switches between open applications.
  • Network module shows local and external IP addresses.
  • Theme files can change module order, shapes, fonts and icons.

Setup and limits

Install the listed requirements, then download and run the RMSkin release file. If installation does not start the skin, load Awesome through Rainmeter. Load the settings skin for visual configuration, or create a theme file under awesome/@Resources/themes to customize colors, fonts, shapes and module order.

Requires Rainmeter 4.3 or later and ImageMagick. Media controls depend on a compatible player. The supplied page does not identify weather or mail service requirements. Pushbullet integration, a calendar and a folder browser appear under future updates and are not documented as available features. Current Windows-build compatibility has not been independently verified; this research did not install or execute the skin.
