How do I go about forcing/telling Firefox to use the established Windows 10 active/inactive title bar colors. Is it done via chrome scripting... Need help... please be as detailed as possible.

Hello Randy,
If I use the default theme in Firefox, it uses the Windows 10 active/inactive title bar colors for me.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I followed your response tutorial only to find that all FF window title bars are now grey, not my deep blue (active windows), and purple (inactive). Is there something else that I need to do?

Fortunately it's ok with Aeroglass (3rd party utility providing transparency).
Would the Aerolite theme have any effect?

I beg your patience...
Would you kindly elaborate on the use of the Aerolite theme? Please provide an example.
Pnce again, the designers have: "Made a sow's ear out of a silk purse."
Where has Quality Control gone?

Is that with the window inactive?
Aerolite - tutorial from the Tutorial section:
Install Aerolite Theme in Windows 10
(I have no idea if that will help here- was hoping Brink might opine)
Gentlemen--
dalchina's Aerolite theme suggeastion filled the bill, but I prefer a darker shade of blue. Is there such a thing as a theme editor utility so that I can futz with the theme colors. Can a theme contain templates for both active, and inactive windows? Picky, aren't I?
dalchina's suggestion also fixed a problem with the height of the FF title bars which mis-placed the terminate/restore down/minimize buttons...One had to 'feel' one's way around the upper-right of the window to select the action desired.
I patiently await any/all responses!

It does seem to respect this Registry Change to set your own Inactive Color however:
