Getting help in this community is like pulling teeth, I swear to god.
Anyway. Windlight settings.
Noone seemed to have any answers, so I am sharing what I know.

Officially, opensim discontinued Windlight.

You can still enable those settings in OSSL and OSSLDEFAULT config files. You used to have to enable them in Xengine settings but Yengine doesnt seem to require it.

The default settings that come bundled with Firestorm, Singularity, and Coolviewer are buggy AT BEST.

Region weather settings are saved to whatever database you are using in your server in a kind of strange, sloppy way. It isn't 1:1 with SL Windlight settings.
You're actually better off editing region windlight settings with a script than attempting to change them with the viewer.

You can edit this script to get the job done. If you are using Windlight i really recommend using the singularity viewer- it seems to play nice with Windlight.

Also, after hitting an option to change the windlight settings... hit 'world', 'region/estate'. For whatever reason this triggers a refresh of the windlight settings on the region and you can see the changes you've made.

In case anyone was wondering about that troll 'boxcleaner'...
do not trust a word they say. They admit as much themselves:

The important bit is that they glorify being a blatant liar. Basically, you can't trust them at all.

Has your default SL viewer been hijacked?
Well, you can fix that in regedit.
There are three or four entries you'll need to change, one per protocol.
Viewer name isnt really important, its mostly cosmetic.

Format of the 'default' link registry key is always:
"C:\Program Files\Singularity\SingularityViewer.exe" -url "%1"
%1 is always replaced with the url you are choosing to open

Today there is way too much drama in the box. I was looking for grid help, or conversation. So. If you want to remove "the box"... use greasemonkey/tampermonkey. Create a script for this site. Add...
// @require https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js
under 'grant' at the top.
THEN. add this:
(function() {
'use strict';

$( '.panel-heading:contains(" The Box ")' ).parent().remove();

})();
