    To reset your screen to a white background and switch apps back to their original colors from dark mode, you can change the color mode settings in Windows 11. Here’s how to do it:

    1. Open Settings: Click on the Start menu and select Settings (you can also press Windows + I).
    2. Go to Personalization: In the Settings window, select Personalization.
    3. Select Colors: Click on the Colors option on the left sidebar.
    4. Choose Your Mode: In the Colors settings, you will find a drop-down menu labeled Choose your mode. Select Light to switch to a white background and revert apps to their original colors.

    This change will take effect immediately, and your apps will now display in light mode with a white background.
