SecureUxTheme VS rainmeter

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.

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.

Instead of UXThemePatcher, you should use SecureUXTheme.

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.

Better off using SecureUXTheme.

Incidentally, I use said SecureUxTheme patcher to solve this problem: https://github.com/namazso/SecureUxTheme.

Look for SecureUXTheme, which is compatible with secure boot.

I decided, to make it easy, I'd add all the files needed into a compact Google Drive for you to download everything needed ready made. Before you download what is inside the google drive, you need rainmeter to download this set.

No issues here either opening rainmeter.net. As u/SaberAkiyama mentioned, the the GitHub site.

Use Rainmeter "Mond" skin (Mond Skin; Rainmeter Site), just look up some rainmeter tutorials on youtube, it can get pretty confusing

To be perfectly clear: this is a false positive and the likely reason has been clarified here. If that explanation isn't enough you though, than I would also like to remind everyone that rainmeter is open source, so anyone and everyone is free to scrutinize the code as much as they wish.

rainmeter.net

For the macOS style menubar 1. Get Rainmeter Beta Latest here ( Download (github.com) ) 2. Install it like you would... 3. Get Droptop Four from here ( Home | droptop four (wixsite.com) //highly recommend getting supporter version for extra customisation) 4. Extract the zip and install it by clicking on the .rmskin filetype (they also have a Server) 5. Customise it as you want :)

I guess http://rainmeter.net will have to step up their game

rainmeter.net and wallpaper engine can be found on steam for somewhere around 4-8 dollars depending where you live
