Describe the bug titlebar of explorer and console and other apps revert back to default windows blue color while im using different accent color for title bar.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Enable blur behind

Screenshots Screenshot (108)

Windows Version win11 22h2 22621.1928

Additional context without blur behind the app will be useless because all other place look good.

Expected behavior from Windows.

so there is no way to fix it, right?

No.

Is it really expected behaviour from Windows?

My default system color is not blue. It's green.

When "Blur behind" is enabled, the entire window (including the title bar) get's a nice glassy effect:

However, it's too transparent for normal usage. In the other case, when just Mica and "Extend frame into..." are selected, the active window title bar becomes blue:

When the window is inactive, the nice mica effect gets also applied to the title bar:

If it's the expected behavior from Windows, why the title bar is blue, and not e.g. black as the selected accent color?

EDIT:

Ahh! It's Windows Option: "Show accent color on title bars and windows borders" causing it!

I just don't know why it gets blue instead of the selected color.
