blinded by white background
Got recent update in Win 10 Pro, and since my email background is all white, hurting eyes, and so too, is the background to this site. My home screen is black, saving space and wear on the eyes. The update also placed a pic page on my site, with icons to some other ventures. Ok, I guess, but some things were changed, including the all white background feature. Any way to change the all white feature? Thanks, Jim S.

Options:
Uninstall the latest update. This will only work for a while though.
Don't use Edge (it is junk anyway) or Microsoft Mail, or try changing the background color. Microsoft should not have changed that ability.

Check to see if you can change the entire Windows Theme. This may allow changing the background color of Microsoft programs. No guarantee it will work, but it is worth trying.
Thanks for the posts. I've gotten accustomed to the "forced" update features, though I don't like the idea of Microsoft doing what it damn well pleases. Haven't heard too many others complain, so, I suspect Microsoft will take that as a "yes". Maybe we'll hear more about this as time passes. I've been able to tone down the white backgrounds and that'll probably be the best I can expect. Have written to Microsoft. No reply. We'll see how it plays out. Again, thanks. Jim S.
