I tried using high contrast mode, but that also changes other graphics I don't want.
I am also open for 3d party programs to use! Aslong it's free ;-)

Thanks,

Choose a high contrast theme and customize the colors to suit your preferences. 4. Third-Party Tools: - Explore third-party applications that allow advanced desktop customization. "WindowBlinds" and "Stardock Curtains" are popular options that offer extensive theme and customization features. 5. Text Shadow: - Some desktop customization tools offer options to add shadows to text, which can enhance readability against darker backgrounds. Look for settings related to text shadow effects. 6. Visual Styles: - Consider looking for Windows visual styles or themes that are designed for readability and usability. Websites like "DeviantArt" have a wide range of themes suitable for different preferences. Remember to experiment with various options until you find the one that best suits your readability needs while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your desktop.
