The Aero Colour Settings in DisplayFusion require the Aero Glass theme to be enabled.

I've run the Microsoft support tool to fault find Windows Aero, and it looks like my GeForce GTS8600 doesn't support Aero!
Time for a new graphics card I think :0 ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/aero-settings-disabled-in-windows-7/?ID=9ed21efa-ba4c-4b85-94db-71fa1105606f Wed, 21 Nov 2012 11:58:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/aero-settings-disabled-in-windows-7/?ID=9ed21efa-ba4c-4b85-94db-71fa1105606f DisplayFusion Hi, I've been using Displayfusion for a while now and just purchased version 4.3.
Very happy except for one thing - the "Aero Colour Settings" option in Settings is greyed out.

Windows Personalization is showing colours as "Basic", and I can set it to and Aero theme, but as soon as I go back to my Displayfusion profile it reverts to basic.
I'm fairly new to Windows 7, so please excuse if I've missed something obvious.
I have searched on the discussions, but no matter what I search for it just comes back with "too many results, first 100 displayed"
