    Hi, I am an Independent Advisor.

    Let me help you with this issue.

    I understand your File explorer looks weird.

    Please open Start Menu, type in File Explorer Options, then on the File Explorer options choose Restore defaults then click Ok.

    File Explorer Looks Weird

    When I go to File Explorer on my Windows 10 laptop, it looks weird. Any highlighted files won't appear as highlighted, the scroll bars are just black and hovering the mouse cursor over options in the right-click window get bolder. I would show you a screenshot
    I took, but the "Choose File" button on this website doesn't even do anything! Please help!

    File Explorer - Dark theme looks weird

    I seem to remember having a program at one point that changed how file explorer looked (Classic Shell) but I've uninstalled it. I've looked through my list of programs and nothing jumps out at me as something that might be editing the look of File Explorer.

    Interestingly, dark theme File Explorer looks fine for a new user on the same computer.

    Any ideas on how to fix this?
