About this project
What does Dark Window Bar add?
Dark Window Bar is a simple mod that automatically makes the title bar for Minecraft dark on Windows.
The mod will detect if you're running Windows in dark mode, and if you are, the window will be styled on launch to match the operating system:
Due to using Windows-specific APIs for setting window attributes, this mod will only work on Windows 10 and Windows 11. The mod will disable itself when running on other operating systems.
