ajtruckle Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Day three of using this new Dark Windows Theme for Windows 10 A little bit of background to my latest issue. This is my own application I am developing with Visual Studio 2015 (MFC) and it has a Web Browser control on it. This Web Browser control uses Internet Explorer under the hood. My documents show with regular black text when I use the standard Windows 10 theme but they show as a lighter colour when using the dark theme. I have also detected that some applications also have this affect as a result of changing themes. How do I fix this? It should be black.

ajtruckle Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Update: If I open Internet Explorer and go to General Options | Appearance | Colours and untick the Use Windows colors setting and accept the ones provided then it does render correctly. So I would come to the conclusion that it is the theme itself that has stipulated the basic text colour. I appreciate advice on how to fix. Since other applications are affected.
