I'm not sure when this started, but I have a problem with the Aerolite visual style in normal mode (it works fine in high contrast mode) :
I tried sfc /scannow, restore points, disable recently installed Windhawk mods, but nothing changes. However, when I test Aerolite with MsstyleEditor, it displays correctly. I don't know if anyone has any idea what's causing this problem. If anyone knows, that would be great, because I don't see any other solution than to reinstall Windows. |

I checked, it is not active. Some themes come with a registry tweak that changes some color values in registry. Or a custom theme you used may changed them. Apply Windows default theme first then apply aerolite. I would tell you those keys location if I remembered them,sorry about that. |

I would tell you those keys location if I remembered them,sorry about that. I searched with RegScanner for the decimal and hexadecimal numbers corresponding to one of the unwanted colors, I found nothing. Afterwards, it may be stored in binary data. On the other hand, I already tried switching back to the default theme before switching back to Aerolite ; The default theme seems to display correctly. |

Brawllux I solved the issue. This came from the visual style cache (folder C:\windows\resources\themes\aero\VScache), which had saved the colors of a high contrast theme (in this case ArkDark V2). When delete all contents of the folder, the correct colors came back. While searching for VSCache related issues, I found that this issue is known : serverfault.com/questions/670635/windows-system-colors-all-wrongIn any case, thanks for the help.
