Question

the tabs on my computer are inverted, but when i make a new tab, its not inverted. i tried checking the settings, but it doesn't say its inverted.

Answer 1

i tried those things, but the tabs are still inverted

Answer 2

The inverted colors are most likely coming from a Windows accessibility setting, not from Microsoft Edge itself. New tabs look normal because Edge is following its own theme, while Windows is inverting the colors of existing content.

Turn off color inversion in Windows 11:

1. Press Windows logo key + U to open Accessibility settings.
2. Select Color filters.
3. If Color filters is turned on, turn it Off. If it must stay on, make sure Inverted is not selected.

If the issue persists, check Magnifier inversion:

1. Press Windows logo key + U to open Accessibility.
2. Select Magnifier.
3. Turn Turn on Magnifier Off, or under Appearance make sure Invert colors is not selected.
   • Keyboard shortcut to toggle Magnifier color inversion: Ctrl + Alt + I.

After these changes, all Edge tabs (existing and new) should display with normal, non‑inverted colors.
