Windows 10 font color won't change

May 17, 2020 5:05 AM from

Hello, I'm relatively new to WindowBlinds and I'm loving it so far!

I've run into a bit of an issue though. It seems that I can't change the 'Explorer text (Win10)' system color. I've tried changing it in SkinStudio 'Edit Colours' menu, but it doesn't ever actually apply and just stays default black (even though all the others change with no problem). I confirmed this by changing the color, hitting apply, then hitting 'Import existing system colors' which shows the color remained black.

Does anyone know what I can do?

Sorry. I think those text settings are hard coded.

In Windowblinds, all you have to do is change this setting to the color you want and then reapply the skin, do not do "Import Existings System Colors" at all.

Bummer. At least it isn't a totally deal-breaking problem.
