I have been modifying a dark theme for 21h2 and am having a hard time finding where to change this, to look like the second screenshot. Everything I read says its in, start menu, basic, menus, toolbar, but that is already set to the colors I want. Any guidance would be appreciated.

In the theme file itself, or the startisback style? In the startisback style, there are no properties in the basic section.

Thats what I am using of course. First screenshot is my theme file, the second is the startisback theme file with no properties under the basic option.

Still have not figured out what changes the start menu restart menu. It will change when I change themes or start is back styles, but have yet to get anything to change using WSB. Anyone have insight?

@Donkuz, is this in the main theme, or your start is back theme? Or can you use it as one theme now? Ive always used two themes, one for startisback, and one for the rest of windows.

91711That image you imported might be a bit to big try using a smaller one the same size as mine bro.

Not running in compatibility mode. Maybe because the original theme might be a ported theme? I actually paid for this theme from Cleo @cleodesktops or something like that.
This is Blade theme I downloaded here.

hi i can port this theme properly for you if needed yeah also the wsb is for customizing the whole of windows 10 not the startisback

Ok, I think im doing something wrong. Can I add my Startisback images, and theme files to the original theme? I just applied Armoured, that I downloaded here, and copied the theme files to window, rexources, etc. Then I open startisback, and the armoured start menu is there as on option??

So the person I purchased this from did not put start menu files in the theme. This is a screenshot of what he said to do. Using a Stock Start is back theme called Plain 10.

hi yeah once youve ported a theme or download a windows 10 theme you only need to copy to resources folder the start menu will load up automatically
