With the release of WindowBlinds 10.87, we are closing this thread.
Thanks to all that tested and provided feedback.
Edge still not applying skin to titlebar. Added -disable-features=Windows10CustomTitlebar to the Edge shortcut. Unless there's something in Edge settings that should be checked. I downloaded the Google shortcut and Google titlebar isn't skinned either.
Oh yea the box in the WB settings is checked for these settings.
You will need to kill all msedge processes. There is a feature to speed edge loading which forces it to start hidden and never close
I just did this Neil, same thing. There were about 6 of them. Didn't work with the shortcut or the one pinned to the taskbar.
Do you have the option enabled to totally close Edge (any Chromium browser) when all windows are closed?
If Edge is still in your systray when all windows are closed, you dont.
Yes that switch is turned off. When I close Edge the processes stop in my task manager. I've never had the Edge icon in my system tray.
And I tried hardware acceleration on and off
And you are on win10?
Yes I am and up to date.
I installed the beta on my laptop without any changes and it works. I set the same settings on my desktop and it still won't skin the titlebar. I don't use a theme background in Edge, it's default. I uninstalled and installed it again and still nothing.
I have the same issue as Al.
Rolled back. I'd rather have skinned than animated ugliness.
Crickets again.....
I must unistall 10.84 ? i upgrade to 10.85 but i still have 10.84 version ?
You should not have to, but if direct install don't work. You might need to uninstall the older version, reboot and reinstall the new version.
Thank you,

I must kill/stop WB process and then upgrade to 10.85.
Of course, 5 days later, no response to my issue. Par for the course. I don't know why I bother.
What problems ? in my PC, WB 10.85 beta works correct. All my skin works and Edge Chromium has new titlebar.
WB 10.84 i must min and max Edge to works new titlebar.
WB 10.85 new titlebar work immediately.
Only quick launcher it looks different but it's a skins fault not WB.
On 10.84 i must some times restart exporer to disable ribbon ?
On 10.85 i must restart explorer when i right clik to pulpit ! (context menu). EDIT: ok i download disable ribbon from winaero and it works now.
One reason I'm considering leaving WC and dropping Stardock. I refuse to keep handing money to a company who disregards me and can't bother to even acknowledge a complaint.
