Windows 10 Dark Theme: How To Enable

Windows 10 dark Theme

Windows 10 is actually Microsoft's best operating system by far. The new operating system which is currently running on more than 270 million devices in the world is packed with lots of great features coupled with great innovation like Cortana, the personal Assistant. Ever thought of making almost everything on your computer look darkish? Or do you just love it when you have bright text on a dark background? Either ways, it all makes stuff look great on the device right?

It would have been awesome if Microsoft just introduced a toggle that could enable one apply dark theme to his or her PC without much hustle. Though this is not the case, one can still apply the hidden dark theme feature without really doing anything much complicated. To apply the dark theme,

1. Press the Windows key alongside the "X" key simultaneously.
2. Click "Run" and type "Regedit"
3. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize
4. Right Click, New/DWORD (32-bit) Value
5. Value Name = AppsUseLightTheme
6. Right click and click on Modify
7. On the pop up, Select Hexadecimal and set the Value data = 0

   

   Editing the DWORD (32-bit) Value

8. Reboot your computer

After you reboot your computer, your Settings and other Windows built in programs should change to dark.

NB: whenever you want to change the theme to light, just change the DWORD value to 0 or delete the Value created.

We just hope that in the not too distant future, Microsoft includes this feature as a simple toggle.
