    Is there a fix for the invisible Windows borders?


    I know this is an old issue, but I don't think there has ever been a solution. After all this time, I'm still not used to having invisible borders. Often I click on the wrong window. Any suggestions? I have Windows version 1903

    Hi, try this tutorial from the early days of Win 10
    Install Aerolite Theme in Windows 10

    from this searchable list you can bookmark

    This is mine:

    - I use a 3rd party program, Aeroglass.

    Then there are 3rd party themes and Stardock's Windowblinds- plenty of examples of screenshots of some members' themes in threads in the Customisation section.

    Thanks so much. You just made my life a lot easier. I've struggled with the idiotic way MS has done this for years. I really like that this doesn't involve a 3rd party also. I did a bunch of google searches and came up with nothing. This again shows me what a great forum this is - brilliant people.
