Hello,

Quoting r_pinkard, reply 173

While I will admit to a degree of levity in my commending stardock developers, I still think that they deserve recognition for all the betas they have recently released.  This demonstrates an unusual level of responsiveness.

 I believe Stardock will eventually address most of the bugs, if they are bugs.

 I can and I want to fully support that. 

 Thanks for the diligent work, which helped me too !!!

Greetings Ebs

You need Windows 10 V1809. To have that option in Setting -> Personalization -> Colors

Thank you,

I did it with mine. Win 10 1804...but it doesn't do explorer windows. Probably only UWP apps.

I am asking once more, please... There is no need to keep posting this issue ElectroSelf - you have documented it very well a number of times. No new version of Windows is likely to solve it - it will take an act from us to do so.  Regrettably, I cannot say when that will be.

We want new issues to be posted in this thread if not in a thread of their own as this one will be closing soon.

Again, thank you for making this issue very well know and documented very very well.

Regards,

I don't think your question is stupid.  There are actually several Windowblinds skins that you can use to achieve a dark mode effect without changing Windows settings.  In fact, one of them is called "Dark Mode", it does a good job, and appears to currently be one of the most popular skins on wincustomize.com

This is getting tedious now. Below is a screenie WB config. It did that five times before the skin took. This has happened on others as well.

Something In your PC I think causing you your problems 

The WB working for me as it should with one click 

Would you Please try a Clean Boot: https://forums.stardock.com/486023/windowblinds-support-faq#cleanboot
