Describe the solution you'd like
The feature would be useful for people who aim for a Vista/7/8.1 look, since windows 10 introduced a thing with the "removal" of borders, where the app icon on the title bar is not at the very start of the title bar (like in previous windows versions)

And this is how it looks like on 10

As you can see the icon is placed more to the right on Windows 10, while on 7 it puts it at the very left edge of the title bar

Your reason (tell us why we need it)

Briefly describe your reasons for wanting to do this.

Since we have the ability to restore 7 caption button sizes, I think this would be possible to add too

Describe alternatives you've considered

A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

There used to be a uDWM patch which restored this, unfortunately no longer works since ms updated dwm and the patch is causing constant crashes, you can downgrade dwm but I don't wanna mess with system files

There is also a forum post that shows how it can be achieved by patching uDWM yourself https://winclassic.net/post/13638

BTW, this is done by Dulappy's DWM mods for Windhawk, which can be found here. The icon offset is handled in the CTopLevelWindow::UpdateNCAreaPositionsAndSizes hook.
