• UI Customization: Adjust window metrics, spacing, and fonts to your liking.
• Complete Personalization: Manage wallpapers, system sounds, and mouse cursors all in one place.
• Theme Management: Save your customizations as theme files and reload them anytime.
• WinPaletter Store: Browse, upload, and apply themes created by others directly from the app.

Key Data Structures

Class Name	Purpose
Color	Stores main system colors (like accent and background colors)
ClassicColors	Manages legacy Windows colors from older versions
MetricsFonts	Controls window sizes, spacing, and fonts
Sounds	Handles custom sound schemes for system events
Cursors	Stores mouse pointer customizations
Wallpaper	Manages wallpaper path and display settings
