When I enabled dark mode it gave me a choice of text color. Unfortunately I chose blue. Now I have to squint to read. After 1/2 hour I still cannot find a way to change foreground text back to white. Anyone have the magic pill?

In appearance try changing 'overall appearance' back to Light then change it back to Dark or System Default.

Also, just a thought, there's no setting in Edge to change the font colour. Maybe you have a third party app that's doing it?

Thanks for the replies. I forgot to mention I am using Amazing Dark Mode extension in Edge to inject or override the web site colors. Either it or one of the Edge themes gave me the choice of white or blue text. I guess I should mark it solved since changing the Edge theme to Midnight Blue seems to give enough contrast to read easily.
The text I am typing in here shows as white, but text on the Softpedia site, as example, shows as blue. It is just a bit frustrating that I can't find out how to get that option back. But if it ain't broke now I guess I should stop fixing it.
