Re: Colors/Dark
Well the top bar is white for XYPLORER but for every other window/app on my system it's dark. My theme in windows is Dark. So I'm not sure how to specifically control that one window, but wierd its different than everything else.

Re: Colors/Dark
Did you ticked that "Title bars and window borders"? Windows Explorer also works in dark mode without ticking it.

Re: Colors/Dark
I suspect this kind of stuff makes you crazy, since it's not actually your product but dealing with peripheral things having little to do with your functionaility, so....
I went to select "Title bars and windows borders". It then makes me pick a windows color out of that grid. There is no dark color so chose custom color and even though Windows said its unsupported, still let me do it. . So it does change your xyplorer color, but only while it's selected. WHen I select off it reverts back to white(ish).
Most of the windows on my system (without ticking that) are dark. Edge, all microsoft products (word, outlook, etc), So I don't know how they do it when your unable to because windows controls yours. Maybe they have secret/custom hooks because they are microsoft.
Other apps that aren't in dark I may not care about, but explorer is opened most of the time on my system in multiple screens around so it really stands out. I'm just giving feedback, and I get it this is a pain.

Yes, white is conspicuous.

Currently using the 200.70.0200 since thats what the update installed and that seems to be only thing available on the download page.
I Also can't even figure out how to turn off the menu bar. If that's a simple menu item, can you share, as I've searched and just can't find it.
Thanks.
