Default Windows 10 Aesthetics but Dark?

Yes I know there is Dark Mode in Windows 10

February 6, 2021 11:46:17 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Yes I know there is Dark Mode in Windows 10, but I want to make things like Task Scheduler, Control Panel, and Message Boxes dark as well. I also don't want an over the top theme. I really like the simplicity of the default Windows 10 style. Is there an easy way for me to achieve this using WindowsBlinds?

Hello,
Windowblinds have plenty of dark themes. You can try those and see if it work for you. But, there will always some parts of Windows which do not change its color. Control Panel is one of the part that always be with white backgrounds.

Oh really? The control panel is unchangeable, that's a shame. Okay, thanks.

Is there any way to adjust the default control colors (like window background) while still keeping the vanilla Windows 10 Theme (window controls/frame)?

I don't think that is possible. If WB style change a system colors such as Windows background color or/and Windows text color, it will change across the board. So it will also change things like Windows Explorer background etc.

Thank you,

On the other note, if you wish for just minor change, you might be interested in Stardock's Curtains instead. There are 30 days free trial if you wish to try it out. https://www.stardock.com/products/curtains/
