Have you tried running the mod using the option debug=true: yes / no
Have you tried deleting the config files? (minecraft/config/bc_filename.properties): yes / no

Did you use a newer version of Bettercolors in the same minecraft directory? I suspect that the minecraft/config/bc_default.properties file has the toggle key ID of 260 (the one for MC1.16.5 whereas you are using 1.8.9 and it should be 210)

If you want to keep the settings that you are currently using, then:

Go to your minecraft directory
Go to config/
Open bc_default.properties with notepad, and edit the line where it says "toggle_key=260" to "toggle_key=210"

If you don't care losing your configuration, then:

Go to your minecraft directory
Go to config/
Delete all the files that begin with "_bc" or "bc"

I will update the mod later on to handle this issue automatically. It's due to the fact that key codes are not the same on different minecraft versions

Whoops. I already deleted the config foler before reporting the issue, but now that I looked at the mc folder it seems that something really werid happened and the files were named config/ instead being in the config folder. Screenshot attached below

What I belive is causing this is the use of \ instead of / in paths. MS uses \ while linux uses /, causing it to not write them to the folder.

After deleting the werid artifacts, the issue is solved. Thanks.

Glad that you fixed your issue! It's weird that java doesn't recognize \ properly. I'll try to fix that issue in the next update
