Windows 10: sudden color changes

Alright, for the past month or so, once every week roughly, my taskbar color, as well as the general window color has changed from my preferred dark to light on its own. By that i mean the choice given in the colors tab under the personalization menu. I don't know what is doing this, and I wonder if anyone has run into this problem before, and any possible fixes?
