  2. Windows 10 1809 Dark mode

    Thanks for reporting this.

    We are seeing some reports of unexpectedly light-themed UI elements (e.g. address bar) in File Explorer and unreadable text in context menus when using dark theme after the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (1809).

    If you’ve enabled dark theme and File Explorer doesn’t look like the picture shown

    here
    , we are aware and working on a fix. In the meantime, you can resolve the issue by going to Settings > Personalization > Themes and reverting back to the default Windows theme. After that, feel free to return to your preferred theme.

  3. Dark Mode

    I have just updated to Windows 10 Version 1809.

    Right click is unusable in dark mode. The text changes to white, but Menu windows are still white.

    This is both on the desktop and in File Explorer

    Context menu text in dark mode 1809

    Can Someone Confirm That My Context Menu Is Fubared In Dark Mode?


    Starting with build 17735.1000 and continuing through build 17763.1, when I am in Dark Mode the Right Click Context Menu is almost Unreadable. Is this the way it is supposed to be? Light Mode seems to be OK. I have summited Feedback to MS.

    Edit: Interestingly enough this seems to be a User Profile issue. I switched to another user and while in Dark Mode the Right Click Context Menu displays properly.
