Text of the Desktop Icons is black (badly readable)

September 12, 2019 6:07:00 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Hallo,

how can I change the color of the Icon Text/Labeling on my Desktop. I use a dark Background Wallpaper and the letters of the icons are black, so they are badly readable.

Can I change the Color to white?

Thank you

Daniel

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Not sure why your desktop color is black. Usually Icons on desktop is white with black glow on the background. Can you show us a screenshot of your desktop.

Thanks

You have this in the WindowBlinds support, so if you change the WindowBlinds to another theme does it still do it? If you go back to the default theme is it still there?

The Problem is by using the Theme called "Calm". The Theme "Calm" shows the color of the icon text in black.

 

If I switch to the Theme named "Ice", the color of the icon text is white.

 

But now I use "Calm" Theme and a light Wallpaper, so the icon text ist better readable.
