    Notifications and calendar low contrast makes text barely visible

    Hi!

    Notifications and calendar panel has so low contrast that text is barely visible.

    My system is a Windows 10 upgraded to Windows 11 and I haven't changed anything from default. The contrast is not correct in the panel showing clicking on the time and date.

    How can this be fixed?

    Hi Tim86

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Go into the Settings App, then go to Personalization - Colors

    Toggle Windows Mode from Light to Dark, or vice versa.

    Restart (not shut down) your PC, then toggle that color mode back to its original setting you prefer, is that still at low contrast?

    Notification area borders with High Contrast

    My display drivers the most up-to-date version from nVidia (353.62) and am fully patched through Windows Update. This issue is unique to High Contrast; Aero themes do not have the borders in the notification area.

    However, this doesn't solve the issue, because Aero themes don't allow setting a window text/background color outside of Start menu/etc. I need something that can change to black background and white text (like setting WindowBackground and WindowText in
    non-Aero themes in Windows 7 and earlier).
