Windows 10 1809 Dark mode

Thanks for reporting this.

We are seeing some reports of unexpectedly light-themed UI elements (e.g. address bar) in File Explorer and unreadable text in context menus when using dark theme after the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (1809).

If you’ve enabled dark theme and File Explorer doesn’t look like the picture shown

here, we are aware and working on a fix. In the meantime, you can resolve the issue by going to Settings > Personalization > Themes and reverting back to the default Windows theme. After that, feel free to return to your preferred theme.

Paul...
