is this still working for 24h2 win11?
is this still working for 24h2 win11?
is this still working for 24h2 win11?
they seemed to of changed a bunch of colors in a recent windows update so i dont think so for now
W11 Pro Workstation, 23H2, 22631.4751. Anybody know how to get it working on this? Do I just run the reg files as admin?
I just installed violet verison on win 11 24h2 no issues so far and works. thanks for your work with this
made a restore point beforehand just in-case
Tested on W11 22H2, works fine, although I have a problem - "device theme" tells me I have a white theme and not a black one.
same thing on website (and probably in other apps)
It works and all but is there a way to mall system apps amoled color?
I changed to 10bpc color and noticed that the start menu is gray instead of black. In the screenshot above my post you can already see a slight difference, but for me it's even more noticeable now with 10bpc.
I had to take an actual photo to show how gray it is, because for some reason(?) it turns darker when I engage the snipping tool.
Edit: figured out why it looked a bit weird elsewhere too, this was the cause https://old.reddit.com/r/OLED_Gaming/comments/1hexre7/why_does_enabling_10_bit_colors_wash_out_the/m288oc0/
However I'd still say the start menu is not really pure black, there's a slight difference <.<
It won't let me apply any of the Registry files
works umazing on win11 25h2

edit: nevermind, I ran the reset .reg and pitch_black_theme.reg again and it's fixed. I think I accidentally ran both pitch_black_theme.reg AND pitch_black_theme_solid.reg when I initially installed this system. My bad :-D.
I'm running this .reg (once again :p) on Win11 IOT LTSC 24H2 and some UI elements have both the text and background black, any solutions?
