    Get colored title bars without changing whole color scheme?

    Is there a way in Threshold 2 Update to get the colored titled bar without changing your whole color scheme?

    I like the default start menu and taskbar colors. But in order to get a colored "title bar" i.e. see your active window with focus, you need to change the global color setting that changes Start, taskbar, action center, & title bar. There doesn't seem to
    be a similar color to choose like the default color of the Start Menu.

    I was very disappointed to find out colored title bars are not enabled by default. How to make it obvious if a window has focus in Windows 11 by changing title color :(

    The lack of color for the active window that has focus was the most annoying thing about Windows 10. They seemed to have brought it back, but I'm sure hardly any people are going to use it and enable it since it's disabled by default.

    Any way to change ONLY the focused window's title bar color?
