An offer from Microsoft Windows popped up a few weeks ago and I downloaded it on the expectation of it being an improvement but instead it has made life more difficult and I’d like to reverse the action.
The download changed the background of many items so that the contrast was lessened, and since I have a visual impairment that works better the stronger the contrast, I am struggling with the changes. For example the task bar background has changed from black to light grey and several icons there are now difficult to identify comfortably. Elsewhere reading and image recognition has become more difficult as well.
I don’t remember the name of the download but it was obviously a major offer since offers of this magnitude are very rare and it took a long time to complete. I’ve checked my apps and programmes list and there was an exceptional amount of activity on 31 July, which would be around the time this occurred. Two of the items are called “Cyberlink Power …” Could this be the culprit that drove all the other activity?
My first thought was to go to a restore point prior to the downloads but to my surprise restore was not enabled. I’ve now corrected that fault.
So, I’d be grateful for any pointers to what the culprit might be and how I might replace it with the previous ecology. Thanks.
