You can copy/rename/edit the style from generic.xaml
For example, I copied DefaultTextBoxStyle to App.xaml, renamed it and added Foreground="Red" inside <TextBlock x:Name="GlyphElement" (then I used the new name Style ="{StaticResource DefaultTextBoxStyle2}" in a TextBox)

You just copy it from (change 1.1.0 to your Windows App SDK version)

%HOMEPATH%\.nuget\packages\microsoft.windowsappsdk\1.1.0\lib\uap10.0\Microsoft.UI\Themes\generic.xaml

style : all the block :

<Style x:Key="DefaultTextBoxStyle" TargetType="TextBox">
//...
</Style>

The property I changed is just the Foreground of the TextBlock named "GlyphElement"
(I also tested by code to check but it only works once the "X" is visible...)

Thank for you reply again.
But I don't want to create any template for textbox.
I want to know that , "is there any property or soildcolorbrush key to change the color of the "x" button.

For example,
To change the background of textbox on pointing over it. we can use as mentioned below

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="TextControlBackgroundPointerOver" Color="{StaticResource color_blue}" />

You can see in XAML that the Foreground I changed is "TextControlButtonForeground"

So if I add for example

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="TextControlButtonForeground" Color="Blue"/>

I get it in Blue :
