ExplorerBlurMica is an open-source tool that adds Blur, Acrylic, and Mica visual effects to Windows File Explorer in both Windows 10 and Windows 11. It enhances the Explorer background with customizable blend colors, supports adaptive light/dark mode, and maintains compatibility with StartAllBack, OldNewExplorer, and third-party themes. The project offers several effect modes, including Blur (Clear) and MicaAlt, with options to clear UI backgrounds such as scrollbars, toolbars, and the address bar. Installation is simple: download the release, extract the files, run the registration script, and restart Explorer. Users can fine-tune every visual parameter through a configuration file that adjusts colors, transparency, and UI behavior. Backed by C++, C, Python, and minhook, ExplorerBlurMica brings modern Windows design aesthetics to Explorer with a lightweight, modular approach.
