Thanks for the update, James. Looks like the Contrast Themes is enabled on your device. To set it back to normal, On your custom theme, I'll suggest you to click Start menu and type Contrast Theme, next to Contrast Themes, please choose None.

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks,

Christine

    Hi Christine,

    Thanks for your assistance, it’s greatly appreciated.

    Changing themes to a Lenovo standard one, it works and text appears normal. When I return to my custom one, it goes weird.

    I’m assuming during the update something corrupted my custom theme. Can it be deleted? Can it be edited? What is your suggestion for going forward?

    Thanks, James
