    How to Add App Mode to Context Menu to Toggle Light or Dark Theme in Windows 10


    You can change your apps in Windows 10 from a default light mode to dark mode. Dark mode is great for low-light conditions like working at night. When you make the switch, UWP apps including Mail, Calendar and the Windows Store app go to a black background, which can even save your battery power with certain screen technologies.

    This tutorial will show you how to add an App mode context menu to make it easy to choose the default app mode to a light or dark theme as wanted for your account in Windows 10.


    EXAMPLE: "App mode" desktop context menu and Store app with light and dark theme

    App Mode in Context Menu....

    It should for the default app mode color.

    As a test, open Settings (Win+I), and see if it changes light/dark theme color when toggling the context menu.

    Change Default App Mode to Light or Dark Theme in Windows 10


    To get a "dark mode" for file explorer you need to use "Color Filter" in ease of access, and that will change all your color settings on the whole system, icons, wallpaper, settings, app color mode(need to switch to light so it will become dark) inclusive. what it does is just invert all color settings. After switching to invert, you will need to re theme your system.

    *Arrow Turn On or Off Color Filters to the Screen in Windows 10 Customization Tutorials

    Original coloring

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I see that when you click on the Wi-Fi option in you get the options in Dark context menu in Light Theme. This is by design for the Light Theme.




    There are few interesting feature changes in Windows 10 1903 that you may want to check. You can refer the article

    to know about the new features.



    However, I commend you for noticing this in the Light Theme. We would like to hear your thoughts and suggestions, as there may be other users with a similar requirement. Hence, I would suggest you to post a feedback in Microsoft
