You could try either:

  • Updating Aseprite to the newest version - v1.3-beta20 or v.1.2.39
  • Starting Aseprite as an administrator - this should give the application access to any part of your own file system (almost)

either of those suggestions didn't work

Did you try non-beta version (v1.2.39)?

okay it worked in 1.2.39, but after changing background color to pink and hitting apply i got this: https://postimg.cc/LYkTXjXg all menus are unreadable now. 

(i use a different version for my work anyway, so its whatever, but anyone else trying this for the first time should make a backup)

(+1)

this one is even better) https://postimg.cc/ThYmmzN4

Does it persist after hitting F5? Minimizing the window? Restarting Aseprite?

yup. the weird thing was that when i opened theme preferences menu it showed all colors as fully transparent. there must still be some cringe about reading\writing present

As a last resort, if nothing helps you can go to your Aseprite preferences folder, delete the theme-preferences folder, and restart Aseprite.

This will hard delete the extension.

(I’ll add this instruction to a troubleshooting section)
