[!Important]

  1. WinPaletter is not stable on Windows XP; test it first in a virtual machine.
  2. You may encounter unexplained crashes on startup, during use, or when closing the application.
  3. If the classic theme is enabled, theme previews may not work due to limitations in Visual Styles Previewer. Apply a different theme first, then reopen WinPaletter.
