Windows 11 dark theme is too dark!
None of it is user friendly, but if you can follow directions you can be up and running in 30 minutes. I recommend SecureUxTheme which patches the necessary files in memory.

Anybody use 3rd party dark theme?
The last discussion of dark theme in this sub was like 6-7 years ago, so I wonder if anyone use it now. I found two option for the installer 1. SecureUXTheme and 2. UltraUXThemePatcher, but for the theme it self I haven't found what I'm looking for which is dark and minimal theme.

I just want a dark Task Manager that's all
Instead of UXThemePatcher, you should use SecureUXTheme.

Black screen pulling me out of fullscreen video / game and freezing
Hard to explain, been happening since today after I installed a few apps, namely Ear Trumpet from Microsoft Store, tried installing and using WindowBlinds from a YouTube QoL recommendations video here and here but uninstalled after it didn't work, as well as Black In Black / BIB here + UltraUXThemePatcher + SecureUXTheme to try and get BIB to work (which it didn't), and finally Twinkle Tray to adjust desktop brightness like you can on laptops. My best guess is the WindowBlinds app fucking something up, or Twinkle Tray turning off my screen when it goes to black mode, seemingly coming back on when I press my keyboard or mouse, and then freezing and accepting no responses.

Windows 11 dark mode is not no dark. How did they forget to implement dark mode in basic dialog/popup windows?
Incidentally, I use said SecureUxTheme patcher to solve this problem: https://github.com/namazso/SecureUxTheme.

is the uxstyle program safe?
Look for SecureUXTheme, which is compatible with secure boot.
Windows UI Library
- WinUI 3 is now open source
- WinUI3 Source Available
- Can't publish WinUI 3 app
- Leaked Microsoft poll shows fewer employees have confidence in leadership
- Should I start migrating my Xamarin app to MAUI
-
When are we going to have smooth animations ?
I wish that was true, but even the new stuff, like their new frameworks, performs poorly while their older frameworks perform really well. That's brand new code, with no legacy codebase to care for.

WinUI Unpackaged --- What am I missing?
The reason why I don't recommend Winui is the million bugs it has. See the github issues page. All Microsoft ui stuff sucks currently. But if you use WPF why not FluentWPF
- Visual Studio UI will get redesigned

For the past year and a half I've been working on Wintoys, an app that let's you experience Windows in your way and keep it fresh everyday while having everything you need in one place
Development for WinAppSdk and WinUI 3 is also very slow and Microsoft seems to not want to push it and invest more developers into it for some reason. They try to improve the framework, is just it's a small team. For example it was a headacke to apply the Mica backgrop and required unmanaged code, they made it simpler and reduced it to a line of code but it took months. I have 2 out of 7 issues fixed on WinAppSdk repository and 0 out of 8 issues fixed in the WinUI 3 repository (some of the older than a year). This are just my issues, there are many other opened by other developers. So yeah, it wasn't fun at all. PoweshellSDK had an issue with the Import-Module command and it wasn't fixed for more than a year and probably won't be ever fixed, but I'm glad I found a workaround, even more clean and more safe, otherwise I couldn't have added the posibility to uninstall and change Store apps.

Build 23451 includes a better implementation of improved File Explorer tab dragging (you can drag tabs out to create a new window or drag between windows) - still a bit buggy but nice to see anyway!
Compared to UWP or WPF, WinUI 3 is somewhere between 100-200% slower and consumes 7-20 times as much RAM as the old frameworks (for certain operations).
