Windows 10: Please reintroduce darker/custom color options for File Explorer

It used to be available via the "Window Color and Appearance" setting in Windows 7 and even in Windows 8, but Windows 10 seems to lack this very simple option. I'm tired of eye-strain due to the blindingly white background of File Explorer compared to the rest of the Start Menu, System Settings, and so forth all set to Dark Theme.


In addition, some programs also rely on the window colors set for File Explorer, so they are equally bright and obnoxious in their color scheme as I am not able to edit these colors. Editing the Windows registry is not a reasonable solution for an everyday user, which I am. Even if

:)

 

My color is darker?

My colors on my computer are now darker, such as, pink is now more purple and the reds are darker, how do i fix this? can i change something in settings?

Bigger, Darker Fonts

BIGGER, DARKER FONTS

Hola, hello, hi everyone... My first time here so a bit rough around the edges.

I need bigger, darker fonts. I don't use magnifier because it is too distracting and cumbersome to use.

I am willing to use custom scaling but the introductory paragraph on the custom scaling screen informs us it is not recommended, warning us about all sorts of (seemingly) insurmountable nightmarish problems we are likely to encounter.Right
now have set custom scaling at 100. Barely legible. Perhaps if it were darker it would work for me.

I have not attempted a larger custom scaling setting (e.g., 125 or 150) for fear of precipitating doomsday as I interpret the warning mentioned above.

My specific questions/remarks are:

• Is there a way to get bigger, darker font without altering anything else like we were able to do on Windows 8?
• Does custom scaling alter the way things are displayed when using browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox?
• Any ideas, comments, suggestions, alternatives, or any whatevers will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Aída
