Windows 10: Background color has changed from white to black in Microsoft Photos app

Background color has changed from white to black in Microsoft Photos app after Windows 10 update.


How do I go back to a black background?

Can i change the background color of the windows 10 photo app?


the background for the windows 10 photo app is black, and that is bad for transparent png and gif files.
i normally wont use it but the desktop photo viewer is giving trouble
is there a way i can change the background color to white?

 

Change Photo app background color Win10

As displayed in the attached photo the background color of the photo application is black, and this is an annoyance when I view .png files without a white background. I understand that I can just simply go back to the default photo viewer from before with
a white background, however I quite like the photo app and want to see if this annoyance can be solved before going back to my old ways.
