    Now you can have COLORED INACTIVE TITLE BARS !


    Hi all

    Here is how :

    Let's go into regedit ( launch run command and type "regedit" without quotes )

    Now go to the following path :

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM

    now you gonna create a new dword ( see screenshot ) named " AccentColorInactive "

    Now you can have COLORED INACTIVE TITLE BARS !-snap4.jpgdouble click on it and edit the color with hexadecimal values using a nice url I found for it

    Color Hex Color Codes

    the TRICK is to copy from right to left the values ( blue first , then green and red ) found in hexadecimal field

    Now you can have COLORED INACTIVE TITLE BARS !-snap5.jpgNow fill the DWORD hexadecimal field with them to get :

    Now you can have COLORED INACTIVE TITLE BARS !-snap6.jpg

    Now you have your INACTIVE windows title bars COLORED

    Now you can have COLORED INACTIVE TITLE BARS !-snap7.jpg

    After some testing, I've found that the 'tweak' works as expected on an 'AeroLite' Theme, much more so than on Windows default 'Hero' theme.
