I tried both by adding the effects and also following the example and using apply_mica and neither of them worked for me

I have tested that css for html and body to by transparent,

I feel like mica is broken in general. i see the same color for non tauri apps using mica as well regardless of the wallpaper i have configured. Does mica still work for you in other apps?

Ah nevermind lol, i had transparency effects (Personalization -> Colors -> Transparency Effects) disabled in the Windows os settings 🤣 Now all apps including tauri and this repo's examples work on my end.

Wait let me try that thank you for the suggestion I'll get back to this tommorow

Apparently I have always had transparency effects on so I'm unsure now, since it still doesn't work

Same here on 25H2. It works in system applications, like settings, but has stopped working in our app. Worked fine until I updated Windows.

Did some testing today, and I am quite sure my issue has something to do with WebView2/Windows. Apparently, Microsoft removed the Mica effect from Edge in version 138. . Reported here as well on later Edge versions. Could that have something to do with it?

Below are images of our application, one in a Virtual Machine running an older win 11 build with an older WebView2, and one running locally on the latest Windows version with the latest WebView2. Both are running the same version of the application.

yeah it's very likely a window change that broke it (not saying we can't fix it). microsoft has a tendency to break window effects again and again. just weird that it didn't break for everyone.

shouldn't be related to webview2 / edge changes though since we apply the effect ourself to the window, not the webview.
