If your dark color mode is not staying enabled and keeps switching back to light mode, there could be a few reasons for this behavior:
- Automatic Theme Switching: Check if you have any settings or utilities that automatically switch themes based on time of day. For example, the Light Switch utility in PowerToys can change themes automatically based on sunrise and sunset times. If this is enabled, it may be overriding your manual setting.
- System Settings: Ensure that your Windows settings are configured correctly. Go to Settings > Personalization > Colors and make sure that the dark mode is selected. If you have set it to "Light" or "Custom", it may revert back to light mode.
- App-Specific Settings: Some applications may have their own theme settings that could override the system settings. Check the specific app settings to ensure they are set to use the system theme or dark mode.
- Updates or Bugs: Sometimes, system updates or bugs can cause unexpected behavior. Make sure your Windows is up to date, and consider checking for any known issues related to theme settings in the Windows community or support forums.
If you continue to experience issues, you might want to reset your settings or consult Microsoft support for further assistance.
