Will WindowBlinds Survive the next Major Update (26H2)

Is WindowBlinds compatible with WinUI 3 based dialogs?

from Stardock Forums

Just read an article in Windows Latest By Mayank Parmar - May 31, 2026

In the article he talks about Microsoft replacing all the legacy dialog boxes being with WinUI 3 based dialogs.

"Microsoft says it’s working on a major redesign of all existing legacy dialog boxes in Windows 11, and it’s going to be more than just a dark theme. Right now, Windows barely has modern (WinUI 3)-based pop-ups or dialogs, as most of the operating system falls back to the legacy side. This will change in the next big update."

My question is whether WindowBlinds will be able to customize these new dialogs?

Here's a link to the Article if your interested in reading it.

I wish I could answer, pelaird. I guess it depends what they'll hard code and that'll be optional. Honestly, the time difference between the two modes is inconsequential (for me, at least).
