To use dark mode, follow these steps: - Press the Windows key + I to open Settings. - From the left-hand menu, select Personalization. - From the main pane, select Colors. - Open the Choose your mode dropdown and select Dark. - Select Custom if you want to enable dark mode only for Windows 11 system elements or for apps."

• Use contrast themes to enhance the visibility and readability of text and elements. Contrast themes are a feature that applies high-contrast colors and styles to Windows 11 and apps.

  • Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
  • Click Accessibility.
  • Click the Contrast themes drop-down menu.
  • Choose a dark theme.
  • Press Apply.
• Use Magnifier to zoom in and out of text and images. Magnifier is a feature that enlarges the screen or a portion of the screen to make it easier to see. You can use Magnifier with different modes, such as full-screen, lens, or docked. To use Magnifier, follow these steps:
  • Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
  • Click Accessibility.
  • Click Magnifier.
  • Turn on the Magnifier toggle switch.
  • Choose a mode and a zoom level that suits your needs.
  • Use the keyboard shortcuts to control Magnifier, such as Windows key + Plus (+) to zoom in, Windows key + Minus (-) to zoom out, or Windows key + Esc to exit.
