Thanks for confirming that this change was not intentional. I am using the JDK 22 b24 EA build. When was the Windows compiler and SDK updated?

I don't recall anything specific to this. Since you say "current EA build", does that imply very recently ? My guess is that it is fall out from upgrading the Windows compiler + SDK and we are no longer able to load the uxtheme library on Windows 7 needed for the WindowsL&F. Note that it has been several years since anyone supported or tested Windows 7. If you can confirm this started with JDK 22 b23 that would pretty much confirm the theory.

In the current EA build of JDK 22, selecting WindowsLookAndFeel on Windows 7 shows the same (ugly) UI style as WindowsClassicLookAndFeel.

With JDK 22 on Windows 10 and also with JDK 21 and below on both Windows 7 and Windows 10, this works as expected with different styles for WindowsLookAndFeel and WindowsClassicLookAndFeel.

Is this an intentional change in JDK 22 or a bug? If it is intentional, what was the reason?

Thanks, Simon
