If you are familiar with Windows' Task Scheduler, you may not ask why do I need to use Luna. You can manually switch themes anytime using Luna, by clicking on the "Start Light Theme" or the "Start Dark Theme" options. Enable the "Change wallpaper" option and two boxes appear, use them to set the light theme wallpaper and one for the dark theme. It can change the wallpaper on a schedule. There is one more setting available in Luna. In case you just want to switch the theme of your applications and not Windows' theme, Luna can do that too, uncheck "Change system theme" and you're all set. If this isn't enabled, but "Change system theme" is, Windows' theme will change but not your programs. For this to work, toggle the checkbox next to "Change app theme". The program can also enable dark themes in your programs automatically (for e.g. theme file, and then click on the browse buttons for the light and dark themes and assign the files to be used. If you have custom themes that you wish to use, use the drop-down menu (it says "Based on individual settings). Luna switches between Windows' default Light and Dark themes. That's the good thing about it, you don't have to keep it running in the background thanks to the use of the task scheduler. Wait for it, and the program should change the theme automatically. Set the time of the theme that you want to change to a minute from now.
Click on the box next to it to enable it. There is one option that you need to enable for the program to work, "Change system theme". You can change both timers' settings by clicking in the box and selecting the hour and minute you want the corresponding theme to be triggered. The option next to it is for toggling the Dark theme, which is set for 7:00 PM.
The next setting allows you to choose when the Light theme should be enabled. The option at the top of the screen is the one I mentioned earlier. Click on the Run as administrator button, and the program's GUI will load. That's because Luna uses the task scheduler for switching themes, and this requires administrator privileges. This is the core function of the program, without which it will not work.Ĭlick on the checkbox next to the option, and it will ask you to run it with elevated rights. Luna displays an option that's labeled "Enable automatic theme changer". It's not portable though, install and run it. We tried using Luna, and it works pretty well. Why is that? Well that's Microsoft being Microsoft I suppose.įortunately, there are many ways you can enable Dark Mode automatically. Night Light has a scheduler, but Dark Mode doesn't.
This is especially useful if you're working late. Now, we are not talking about night light, which adjusts the color temperature to help you get better sleep.
