alt text Ideas & Plans

Plan Status
Colorizing Command Prompt/Windows Terminal 🔵 Working on it
Windows Metrics 🟨
Mini-Store for themes 🟨
Extended Support to Windows 7 and 8.1 ✅ Done (Version 1.0.5.0)
Right Click menus for colors to increase functionality ✅ Done (Version 1.0.5.1)
  • 🟨 symbol means that I might or might not work on it. It is not guaranteed that this feature will be done.

alt text Requirements:

  • Windows 7 and Windows 8.1: Use WinPaletter version starting from 1.0.5.0 and higher, and you should install at least .NET Framework 4.7, or better 4.8, then reboot your Windows (Necessary) Download it from here, choose "Runtime"

  • Windows 10 and Windows 11: .Net Framework 4.8 is already pre-installed, so no extra step is required.

alt text WinPaletter: Advanced Colorizing Windows Accents.

alt text alt text alt text

  • You can modify Windows 7\8.1 LogonUI screen\Lock Screen, using Default Backgrounds, Wallpaper, Custom colors and external image, with effects can be applied like Blur, Acrylic Noise, Aero Glass,... alt text

alt text You can colorize the classic apps accents (Like what we did in the 90s and 2000s :))

  • You will see perfect results if you force classic theme for Windows 11\10\8.1 (i.e All Windows elements will be colorized).
  • Windows 7 has a classic theme, so it is can be modified without using external tools to enable classic theme

alt text

  • If you don't use a classic theme (Windows 11\10\8.1), this will be applicable for some Windows Elements like Dialogs backcolor, labels forecolor and hilights only (i.e. not all Windows elements will be colored like buttons, progressbar and tabpages as they are handled/managed by Visual Styles, not Windows Registry Colors).

alt text You can customize your cursors, even the animated circles (Loading Cursors)!

  • This feature debut is in version 1.0.4.0

alt text Idea of the program

alt text Antiviruses or some browsers download issue

  • If you face in Avast that the program is infected with IDP.Generic, then go to Avast > Updates > Update Definitions and then reopen the app after restoring it from quarantine. Avast will re-scan it and it will find that the application is clean. (It was a false positive fixed in last definition updates - Thanks to Ondrej; Avast Customer Care Team)
  • Other Antiviruses (Kaspersky, Malwarebytes) found it clean, don't worry.
  • Some browsers like Edge will prompt you that the program may harm the computer (The program is not signed so the browser think that the program is from unknown organization and may be harmful). You can download it anyway, don't worry.
