  1. High contrast themes disrupt browser defaults


    Hi, I like using my OS UI as basic as possible so I have tested the high contrast themes. They are ok. But when I go to my web browser, everything is disrupted. I'd like to keep the often available dark themes on my browser, but the OS theme takes over making web pages go visually really wild.Is there a way to keep the web browser display defaults normal but keep the OS UI in high contrast?Thanks.Regards,MFP ;

    :)

  3. How to set the default High Contrast Theme

    I have setup a custom high contrast theme at work. When I need to share my screen with others on Skype/Lync I switch back to a standard windows them as most people are thrown off when they see a non-standard layout. Unless you are used to High Contrast
    it can sometimes be confusing. I use the Left-shift, left-alt, print-screen keyboard shortcut to switch back to the standard Windows theme.

    When I am finished with my presentation, I again activeate the keyboard shortcut. Instead of switch back to my custom High Contrast theme, the screen resets to High Contrast #1 them which appears to be the Win 10 default for High Contrast mode.

    How can I set my custom theme to be the default so I don't have to manually select my custom theme everytime?
