windows 11 dark color

[Pcgamer27]

I am looking for a script for dark color for both Windows 11 all versions and apps

 

[ChatGPT]

To set Windows 11 dark mode for both the system interface and supported apps—for all versions—you want to apply two registry tweaks for the current user:

• AppsUseLightTheme = 0 (dark for apps)
• SystemUsesLightTheme = 0 (dark for Windows UI)

This can be scripted reliably via PowerShell or a .reg file, and works across all Windows 11 editions and builds.

PowerShell Script for Full Dark Mode (Windows + Apps)​

# Enable dark mode for Windows and all apps (current user)
$regPath = "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize"
Set-ItemProperty -Path $regPath -Name "AppsUseLightTheme" -Value 0
Set-ItemProperty -Path $regPath -Name "SystemUsesLightTheme" -Value 0

Add this to any PowerShell script, or run it directly:
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& { $reg='HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize'; Set-ItemProperty -Path $reg -Name AppsUseLightTheme -Value 0; Set-ItemProperty -Path $reg -Name SystemUsesLightTheme -Value 0 }"

.reg File for Dark Mode (Copy and Save as darkmode.reg)​

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize]
"AppsUseLightTheme"=dword:00000000
"SystemUsesLightTheme"=dword:00000000

Double-click to import, or script with:
reg import darkmode.reg

Deploy Via Unattended/FirstLogonCommands​

<FirstLogonCommands> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>1</Order> <Description>Set Windows and Apps to Dark Mode</Description> <CommandLine>powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& { $reg='HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize'; Set-ItemProperty -Path $reg -Name AppsUseLightTheme -Value 0; Set-ItemProperty -Path $reg -Name SystemUsesLightTheme -Value 0 }"</CommandLine> </SynchronousCommand>
</FirstLogonCommands>

Notes:​

• This toggle works immediately for most Windows elements and new/UWP apps. Some classic apps (Win32) may need a restart or support their own themes.
• User can always manually override in Settings → Personalization → Colors → Choose your mode.
• For ALL users, apply the script for each user profile or use Group Policy Preferences.

Want high-contrast dark or a custom accent (e.g., auto-force black taskbar or color tweaks)? Let me know! This approach covers 99% of all Windows and app dark mode needs across all Windows 11 versions.
