New Windows 10 Insider Preview Skip Ahead Build 18219 - August 16 Insider

Dark explore is still a useless piece of Bit!

Black text on a 45,45,45(RGB) gray background.

What a bunch of theming dilettants!

Yours is still better than mine, I'm on Skippy:

I have to kill side panels as that stark contrast makes it difficult to read pale gray letters on black background.

I am quite happy about how dark Explorer is shown in Skippy:



Black text is only shown in Details pane, as in screenshot now the black text tells the external drive I: is connected to USB 3. A minor issue.

I could live with that but am I only one with white side panels ???

The smallest things can show a large amount of carelessness, the Black text is one and the fact that one of the internal icons has not been edited to be transparent so it works with either colour scheme - I'm not concerned with a 3rd party icon like the WD one which can be sorted by the User but the "Open" Icon which is on a transparent background on the Regular File mangler

No white side panels for me either.

Anyone having issues with OPENING Security Center with 18219, on two PC's I am seeing white screen and then crash of Security Center...tried going through SETTINGS and still it white screens and crash...anyone know of a fix.

I really wish I had not opted for SKIP Ahead, this is just BS, do these idiots even do basic tests....last Insider for me.

Nope, only objections I have are of design/aesthetic nature, everything works.

Security Center has been iffy for a few builds now, both Fast & Skippy some builds it's ok for me others it just won't open.

I'm guessing with File Explorer dark theme, the problem they are running into, is changing from light to dark, without requiring a sign in-sign out, or restart, like you need to with tools like UXstyles and so on..

Another dumb thing is, Control Panel and File Explorer use the same UI(Explorer), and it should also change to dark, by they left that out also.

Like I said(as a themer/theme creator) very sloppy.
