Hello, I just installed the new Win11 2022H2 update, I then messed about with some config apps like startallback, winareo tweaker and TIW11, the context menus for all my applications started using light mode however I have normal windows context menu's using dark mode:

however on apps like "run" and the context menu of task manager it uses right mode:

On 3rd party apps, the context menus are in light mode

I've tried rebooting, restarting explorer, ending explorer, rechanging dark mode to custom then darkmode for both option

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Display and graphics
