Satin Black Icon Pack for Windows 11

Satin Black Icon Pack for Windows 11

Windows 11 already has a modern interface, but the default folder and system icons may not always match a customized desktop style. If you prefer a darker and cleaner appearance, the Satin Black Icon Pack offers an easy way to refresh the look of File Explorer and supported Windows resources.

This icon pack brings a dark satin-inspired style with deep grey folder icons and redesigned system resources. The folder designs keep a simple and minimal appearance, while selected icons include subtle colors and details that help maintain easy recognition. The balanced design works especially well with dark wallpapers, transparent taskbars, modern Start menu styles, and minimal Windows setups.

Designed to work with the Resource Redirect mod in Windhawk, this pack allows you to customize supported Windows resources without manually replacing system files. This makes it easier to try a new desktop style while keeping the option to return to the default Windows appearance whenever you want.

Visual Details & Wallpaper Pairing

The overall design focuses on a clean dark aesthetic. The satin-style folder icons create a more consistent File Explorer experience, while the additional system icons add variety without making the interface feel overloaded.

This style pairs naturally with dark, grey, blue, and minimal wallpapers. It also looks great with transparent Windows effects, acrylic-style interfaces, Rainmeter widgets, and other desktop customization projects. The final appearance may vary depending on your wallpaper, Windows theme, display settings, and other installed modifications.

1. Elegant Dark Folder Style: Gives File Explorer a refined appearance with darker folder icons that feel more suitable for modern desktop themes.
2. Clean and Recognizable Icons: Combines a darker folder design with detailed system icons, helping your desktop look customized while remaining practical.
3. Perfect for Minimal Setups: Matches well with dark wallpapers, transparent interfaces, and other Windows customization styles.
4. Simple Resource-Based Installation: Uses Resource Redirect through Windhawk, allowing customization without manually modifying Windows system files.
5. Improved Desktop Consistency: Helps create a more unified look across File Explorer and supported Windows areas.
6. Easy to Restore: You can disable the configuration and return to the original Windows icon style whenever needed.
