I think I have found a bug when I switch Windows themes to anything other then "Windows 7" theme!

When you right click on a desktop icon and select "rename" from the context menu the font is very hard to see when any theme is used other then "Windows 7" theme.

With "Landscape" theme you can see the font a little. But with "light Auras", Nature and "theme for United States" you can not see the font at all.

Again this is when you right click on a desktop icon and select Rename.

My video card is an ATI Radeon 3850.

I sure hope this will be fixed before final comes out.

Anyone else have this issue?

Are you for real? Or just being funny? :) lol

Because the way you wrote "CRITICAL" it almost looks like your just being fuuny. And think this is not a very big deal.

Sometimes its hard to read what people are thinking with text. You know what I mean? :)

Anyway this is a very bad bug in my mind.

If you use a white backround as your wallpaper you can not see the font at all on the desktop icons when renameing them.

I think Microsoft should make it automatically change the glow to shadow and font color in windows/desktop to white when you have a dark background, and reverse that when you have a light (white) background. Or just be able to do that via menu.

And I'm sure "non.sequitur2" is just being sarcastic with you, but he passed the arse line with it. :)

    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
