I'd like to find a way to manipulate window colors: invert, tint, change brightness and contrast of specific windows in Windows 7 (although I'm interested in solutions for 8 and 10 as well).

Among the built-in tools there is only an inversion ability of Magnifying Glass (Winkey+Plus) and video card's control panel options which affect the entire screen. I know there is window opacity coz I've been playing with form properties in Visual Studio before, so maybe there's something for changing window colors too. Perhaps Windows Desktop Manager has some API command that does it?

Clarification: I'm not interested in theming windows or what's it called that you can do via Personalization options. I'm talking about affecting the color of the window's contents.

Go to your desktop, right click then click on personalize. You can change the color of your windows and task bars from there.

    Please read the question again carefully. Your answer does **not** answer the original question. OP want's to change **specific** windows not all windows. – DavidPostill Oct 25 '15 at 23:24
  • There is currently no way to change specific windows (that i know of) unless you want to download a third party application that will do it for you. – Matthew Gilbert Oct 25 '15 at 23:30

I really doubt that this is possible. You could use something like Windows Blinds, which does allow different skins on different applications.

    I'm not interested in skins, I want to change the colors of the entire window including its rendered contents. – user1306322 Oct 26 '15 at 00:39
  • @user1306322 Well I have never used it, but I think that it has skins that are very much the same as the standard Aero theme. – paradroid Oct 26 '15 at 01:19

    Are you even reading what I'm saying? I'm not interested in the window border theming part at all! – user1306322 Oct 26 '15 at 01:43
