Please run winver and post the result along with the "About" tab from your WindowBlinds. Also, do you have Start11v1 or v2 installed?

I saw you added a screenshot, what is the issue? If you're referring to the control panel window background color not changeable? I believe this is known issue and I believe that part can not be change.

Thank you,

HEY!

Yes I mean the background color of the control panel window doesn't change? I think this is a known issue and I think this part needs to change, can't all these bugs be fixed!?

So, if this is a known problem! Why hasn't this bug been corrected yet?

The easy answer is that it's not a bug. Microsoft constantly changes the way the various parts of Windows are painted and has done so for many years. From that you can call it "a known issue or a bug", but it's not just because it's "known". It's a fact. The complaint about this should be directed to Microsoft, not Stardock, although I have doubts that will have any effect.

Then why in the theme on Win 10, the background is replaced in the control panel. And your vaunted Windows blinds do not change, if the problem were with Microsoft, then in the themes for Windows 10 and 11 it is not possible to change the background in the control panel! I have the honor!!

Is that a MSStyles (or similar software) theme? Those themes change Windows appearance by altering system files. WindowBlinds does not do that.

This is the MSStyles theme. So make sure that Windows blinds can change the background in the control panel, especially since Windows blinds is a planned program, and there is no point in buying the program, because this is a defect in Windows blinds! If you buy a program, then it should completely change everything by 100% and not like yours by 90%...

First, as already mentioned by DrJBHL, changing/hacking or altering in any way the Windows system files is not allowed by Microsoft's EULA and you are actually breaking copyright laws. Secondly, the chances are that Microsoft make changes to the operating system that break that "feature you request" or creates other issues in Windows. You cannot expect a serious company that make their living by selling customizing software should start breaking the rules just to satisfy you. If you don't think Windowblinds live up to your standards and fill your needs for customizing, simply don't buy it.

The questions you had are now considered answered, and this thread is closed. Now please rest your case.

Microsoft codes Windows such that the only way to change that background is to change system files. Stardock is a Microsoft Gold Partner and does not in any of its programs violate the integrity of system files as that can compromise system security.

MSstyles type programs will cause problems if you run them simultaneously with Stardock software.
