@TurboTiger I'm afraid I do not have any access to a Windows machine right now and will not have it for quite some time.

Are you able to somehow start the app from a terminal? That will give you the output of the main process of sleek. Maybe it provides us with an error message.

On macOS and Linux it works perfectly well and I am wondering if this is a general Windows bug or a MS App store specific one.

@TurboTiger can you try setting the light theme manually (not system default) and then setting the dark theme again. I wonder if this is a repeat of #530

[ransome1]

@swantzter since @TurboTiger isn't responding; Do you by any chance have access to a Windows system and if so can I ask you to check if you can confirm this?

[swantzter]

@ransome1 I did a clean install on a new computer and can confirm this is #530.
Opening it for the first time on a system with dark mode set will give you the window frame in dark mode and the sleek contents in light mode. switching to light mode and then dark mode in settings will get it to dark mode proper

@swantzter @TurboTiger I slightly tweaked the feature again. Is there any improvement on your sides? https://github.com/ransome1/sleek/releases/tag/v2.0.4-rc.2

@swantzter also: Are you on Windows as well and can give it a try on it?

[swantzter]

I'll try to remember it if I boot my secondary machine soon, about to go on vacation so might keep away from computers a bit. It only occurs until you've done the work-around I've described in #530 once, then it'll work as intended forever so I'll have to reinstall sleek on that machine

[swantzter]

@ransome1 I think this is working now. I tried reinstalling and removing all appdata and it worked on first boot

with 2.0.4 this issue should also not occur any longer, when switching between versions.
