Can you update to remove the white border it puts around a inactive window and that so its black instead of being highlighted greyish white.
I overall love the Black Theme but I have one problem:
In the “Settings-Menus” there are some texts that are black, which means they are not visible if the background is also black.
The only become visible if you move your mouse over them. Whish there would be a way to make all text white on black.
Or am I missing something ?

The first version of black theme had this bug. The one for Windows 11 doesn’t have this. If your system is windows 11 and if you are using black theme for windows 11, it will not be a problem. Can you share a screenshot?
Hi. Text selection color in Chrome address bar close to invisible
@Voldemar
Hi,
I tried but nothing like this happens. restart computer
@Admin
It’s a magic! I used dark theme about one week and all this time selection color in chrome address bar was hard to seeing. But today, after updating windows, problem is gone. I have no ideas about reason, and I’m sorry for disturbing. And thank you for your app! It’s great!
@Voldemar
Hello, No problem. There was no such problem in the software. Thank you again for the information you provided.
Absolutely Love this however I have noticed when system updates it tends to revert wish there was a Auto apply setting
Great app for OLED screen laptops and TVs, but is there a way to change the Win 11 Settings pane to true black as well? Mine is dark gray and I cannot change it.

I have no information for now. If found, this feature is added.
