Today with free time I am testing themes with background. It is very entertaining. I have discovered another very nice one, Gold by @chris1111, what do you think?
As they say on the radio, over and out ... for now :)

You have probably windows in the same Drive so rename HardDrive.icns to Windows B)

 

EDIT ++

sorry typo

rename Windows.icns to HardDrive.icns :rofl:

No, Windows is on another disk. Windows entry is not the one detected by OC (ScanPolicy does not include NTFS systems) but created from Misc> Entries. OC puts a generic OC icon to this entry. That's why you don't see a Windows icon.

I do it like this so that Windows is behind BigSur in the menu.  If OC detects NTFS systems, it puts Windows before BigSur with right icon. 

It's a personal cosmetic fad :)

Next time I’m on my desktop machine I’ll do it and update the files in the repo.

 

I've updated the backgrounds in the BlueGlow icon packs to have slightly stronger logos. 

Previews and download links are the same as here.

 

@eSaF - Hope the Gigabyte one is now better for you, if you're still using it.

I am mostly happy with the way my Hack is, the one bugbear I have is in the Boot Menu where Windows appears as the first Boot Disk. Don't get me wrong, I can make the machine default to BS disk but Windows is always the first disk (see pic). I have tried different permutations/Combinations and the results are the same, there is one that I tried by @miliuco that gave an Icon result list like this - Windows, OS X, Windows - the last Windows Icon in the list does nothing, when clicked, it induces an error. If it is all possible to change the Boot order Icon list, can someone please enlighten me. I have attached my EFI Folder to assist. The OS X Disk is designated as the first boot disk in the BIOS, yet Windows places it self first.

I don't see why having Windows first is an issue, but see @miliuco post above where he says what he did to achieve this.

 

Essentially:

1 - Change ScanPolicy to not include NTFS (ie. don't look for Microsoft basic data partitions)

2 - Create a custom entry to manually add Windows

 

:lol: Bro it's not really an issue, probably my OCD kicking in, will check out your recommendation though, if it doesn't work out will leave as is - Cheers.

I think we're both quite picky :)

 

How to add a boot entry in OpenCore
 

Windows Boot Manager Path consists of an EFI path + a boot loader path.

 

How to find your Windows EFI path? Select Shell.efi from OpenCore boot options (should be enabled in config.plist).
Type FS0: > type DIR > if there is an EFI folder type cd EFI > type DIR again to see if it is the EFI folder of the Windows disk. Do this successively for each FS volume (FS1:, FS2:, etc.) until you find the Windows EFI folder. For example, mine is FS0 (first).


Windows EFI is where the Windows Boot Manager locates. You must memorize its identifier index. Print the mapping table of all volumes and save it to a file named map_table.txt this way:
map > map_table.txt
Where do you find the map_table.txt file? On the EFI volume the prompt is on when you type map > map_table.txt.
Exit.
Return to macOS.

 

Mount the volume where you stored the map_table.txt and open it with your preferred text editor. For example:
sudo diskutil mount disk0s1
open /Volumes/EFI/map_table.txt

 

Find the line that contains FS0 (or the one that corresponds to your Windows EFI folder) and copy its path. For example:

PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x17,0x0)/Sata(0x1,0xFFFF,0x0)/HD(1,GPT,4E088723- D4D9-4D7B-824A-2B38AB53CD72,0x3F,0x552FB)/

 

Add the bootloader path: \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi

 

Finally, a completed path going to be filled in the /Misc/Entries of config.plist goes as follows:

PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x17,0x0)/Sata(0x1,0xFFFF,0x0)/HD(1,GPT,4E088723-D4D9-4D7B-824A-2B38AB53CD72,0x3F,0x552FB)/\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi

 

Notice that there is no space between the PCI path and the bootloader path.

 

Windows behind macOS in the OpenCore menu

 

This is accompanied by a ScanPolicy value that does not show neither NTFS systems nor EFI partitions.

This way, macOS disk appears first and the Windows entry appears behind macOS disk.

.../snip/...

Excellent explanation :)

 

I would like to add another way to obtain your Windows path which would be to use an OpenCore debug build and check the log for an entry like this: 

05:758 00:005 OCB: Registering entry Windows (T:32|F:0|G:0|E:0) - PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x17,0x0)/Sata(0x1,0x0,0x0)/HD(1,GPT,558011E8-3667-464B-9BB2-B292181AE197,0x28,0x64000)/\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi

Yes, I forgot this, but for me this way it's more difficult, I usually have OpenCore release.

Same here - Windows behind macOS in the OpenCore menu - is what I am aiming for, looks a lot cleaner in my opinion. Will give your method a try and hopefully get the desired effect. :thumbsup_anim:
