HKCU works for me, the other one not. Nice find though.

 

My settings page is dark

looks pretty sexy if you ask me

OH slick. Thanks

 

Good work

 

Thanks, I like it.

 

An easier way would be to use powershell (No need to log off). Open powershell as admin, and enter:

Code:

New-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize -Name AppsUseLightTheme -Value 0

To Undo:

Code:

Remove-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize -Name AppsUseLightTheme

I am going to have to test this.

 

i think this (and other colors) can be "played with" by changing key values on

Code:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\DefaultColors\Standard

I'm not sure though, will try it later on today, you can use hex ( ffffff, or c0c0c0...etc)

 

I changed only the first registry key and I don't see nothing dark. I know the second registry change the color, but what do the first ?
