The LEDs revert to all white each time I restart or resume the computer from sleep #9

First of all thanks for the app! It's nice to get more than 7 colors to choose from. I set all 8 color choices to the same setting because I just wanted a simple steady color. The only problem is that when I resume the computer from sleep, or if I restart the system, it goes to all white and never goes back to the setting I set in the program.

This is kind of expected.
The Mystic Light api "uploads" the color settings to the Nuvoton SuperIO chip (you can see it on the motherboard near the southbridge). On power loss there is no guarantee that the chip preserves the old settings, hence you may need to set them up again (Msi's software does this for you). I suggest you try MSIRGB (which does not rely on the MysticLight api) and see if it works better

Edit: I'd also check that MSI Mystic Light isn't opening on system start since it could overwrite the color settings made with 3rd party programs

Oh thank you! I actually was referring to the MSIRGB app and obviously posted the issue for the wrong app. The same issue is occuring with MSIRGB unfortunately.

Hi

I have a B360 Gaming plus MB, a simple RGB board (no aRGB) and got this code working!
I initially couldnt set any color, until I realized I had to set de LedStyle to L"Steady".
In that mode I can set all RGB color combinations, not just 8 (presume that is the cycle style)

I started with MSIRGB, and got it kind of working as well, but on my board it fails to initialize the style.
Success!
