You can imagine whatWindows 11 will have native support for controlling RGB LED lighting components and peripherals of your PC? Well, in that case, we have very good news for you, because soon you will stop imagining it and start putting it into practice. And the point is that, as we can read in Bleeping Computer, Microsoft is already conducting tests to provide native support for LED lighting in Windows and that we can control it from the operating system in this way.

Even more interesting to know is that although this feature is not yet active, yes, it’s already in the latest builds received by development channel insiders. It’s a fairly common thing, we’ve told you on other occasions that Microsoft has included some features in different versions of Windows (either from the test channels or the production version), but for reasons that can be all sorts of things, choose to disable them and hidden.

The idea of ​​being able to control the RGB LED lighting of components and peripherals directly from the Windows settings has both positive and negative aspects, although at this point it seems important to me to emphasize that what is a negative for some users may be a positive for others. . I think so, for example This feature allows you to do without the software of each element with lighting that in some cases can be reflected in several applications.

Native Windows 11 support for RGB LED lighting It will have some limitations, yes.. For example, it will have at least basically four visual effects: solid color, flicker, rainbow, and reverse rainbow. In comparison, the proprietary software of these components and devices usually has many more options. In addition, we will still have to check how compatible it is with the plethora of brands and devices that exist today.

On the positive side, a very interesting aspect is that Windows 11 allows you to synchronize the color scheme with the color scheme chosen for the operating system. can provide a point of consistency which will certainly be a very interesting option for many users. In addition, and in the case of combinations of components from different manufacturers, it is possible that it allows us to unify the lighting of all, even if they are not part of the same ecosystem.

As I said before, this feature is hidden in Windows 11 build 25295 on the Windows Insider DEV channel, and since it was discovered by Albacore, they have already released the necessary codes so that we can activate it using their popular ViVeTool. They are the following:

vivetool /enable /id:35262205
vivetool /enable /id:41355275
