@admin,
As a result of a topic to which I have been responding on another Forum, the issue of the Hasleo Backup Suite GUI was mentioned as a negative influence on the user switching to Hasleo. That got me thinking, always a dangerous thing!
I have never liked the very dark appearance of the HBSP program on my two computers. I decided to see what I could do about that.
I went into the Themes options. I am not sure, but I think it was set to "Automatic" on my desktop computer. I apologize, but I wasn't paying really close attention. I switched it to the "Light Theme" and I was immediately a very happy camper. Then, I switched it to "Automatic" and the Light Theme "stuck."
Both of my computers are set in Windows 11 Pro (26200.8457) to use the OS "Light Theme." I think I recall back in the past that I had switched it from the HBS "Dark Theme" on the desktop computer to "Automatic" and nothing happened. Again, I do not trust my memory to be 100% at my age ...
I used HBSP to backup my laptop computer subsequently this afternoon after my desktop computer. HBSP was set to use the "Dark Theme" on that computer. I never selected the "Dark Theme on either computer. Of that fact, I am certain because I dislike Dark Themes.
So this raises two questions in my feeble mind:
1. Why is Dark Theme apparently the HBS program default Theme instead of Automatic?
2. Does the HBS program coding always accurately detect the OS Theme choice of the user's computer?
These are small issues to be sure, but they can have a big impact on a new user of the Hasleo Backup Suite. The user may decide to abandon HBS and look at other backup products with a more "attractive" GUI.
Have a great day.
Regards,
Phil
