Theme, accent color and language settings

Use the three-way switch in the title bar:

Icon Theme
☀ Light
◐ Auto: follows Windows’ app mode (Settings → Personalization → Colors → Choose your app mode) and changes live
☾ Dark (default)

App color… in Preferences sets the accent color used for buttons, toggles, zone borders, the Shift-drag highlight, the Share Zone frame, layout previews, and the tray and taskbar icons.

  • 12 presets: purple (default, #a855f7), indigo, blue, cyan, teal, green, amber, orange, red, rose, pink and violet.
  • A hue slider and a hex field for any other color.
  • Changes preview live. Done keeps the color, while Cancel, ✕ or Esc returns to the color you had before.

Pick a language from the Language dropdown in the title bar. VirtualZones comes in 26 languages:

English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), Polish, Ukrainian, Russian, Czech, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Greek, Turkish, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian and Hindi.

  • English is built in. Other languages are downloaded the first time you choose them (from GitHub) and saved in %APPDATA%\VirtualZones\lang\, so they also work offline.
  • The selected language is refreshed at each launch so translations stay current.
  • Any text that isn’t translated yet falls back to English.
  • Dates follow the chosen language. English uses your Windows region format.
  • Error messages that come from the license server are always in English.

If the UI stays in English after you choose a language, the download failed. Check that raw.githubusercontent.com is reachable (some corporate networks block it).
