I know this is an old post, but in case someone else comes across it, I managed to solve the issue in my program. In your Program.cs page (or whatever it’s been renamed to), ensure you’ve called Application.EnableVisualStyles before calling Run.

Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new Form1());

Also ensure that the button’s UseVisualStyleBackColor property is set to true.
