Change Color - Choose Your Default App Mode

Question

I cannot change my default app mode color to dark. I've seen it done on some other computers and on forums, but 2 of my computer do not have this option. Top picture is of my settings on *my *****computer. As shown, there is no Choose Your Default App Mode and no LIGHT OR DARK option.

The website - https://www.tenforums.com/customization/85539-change-app-background-color.html (bottom picture) shows the Choose Your Default App Mode and LIGHT OR DARK option.

Why does my computer not have the option to switch to DARK???

How can I make this feature available??

Answer 1

Which version of Windows 10 is currently installed? See how to verify:

Because it looks like you are running a much older version on the machine where you can't choose dark mode.
