Incorrect colors and rendering makes some controls unreadable #6344
Comments
Looks like we hit this bug with XAML Islands as well in PowerToys: |
I'm also seeing this problem in Win 10 Pro x64 21H1/H2 (AMD Ryzen with NVIDIA). Power Toys and the new Windows Store have blank controls (and the store has "blank" headers at the top of the page, with white text on near white background). UPDATE:
|
Possibly related to #6119 (comment) @chigy FYI |
Could we please get triage on this issue. There are also more and more people in the Feedback Hub, who are reporting this in a vairity of apps. |
Hello I'm the one who created the issue #6574 , and it seems I'm not the only one. I highly doubt that it's hardware issue. I have pretty standard hardware: i7-6700K cpu, and a RTX 3070 gpu. But I do use DCH driver for graphics card instead of a standard one. Also because I'm a developer, so .NET 5 or 6 are installed through VS instead of default installer or windows update. I constantly receive update failure when windows is trying to update .net thing in windows update. |
I was also having this problem, found two ways to fix it.

Can confirm:
It's still using the wrong accent color per my Windows preferences, but I assume that's an unfortunate design decision rather than a bug. |
I can also confirm, I'm using 10-bit (Monitor) and 12-bit (TV) color, both monitor are HDR and they're not constantly enabled. (I enable it only in games that supports HDR, but I don't change color depth because I need to go through all the menus.) Update driver to 511.23 fixed it. |
Can confirm: NVIDIA card with 10-bit color-managed SDR and 12-bit HDR workflows. Did not even occur to me to try 8-bit (not an acceptable workaround, due to photo/video editing needs). Update to latest NVIDIA Studio Driver 511.09 (January 2022) resolves this issue for Windows Store, Feedback Hub and PowerToys (511.23 is the Game Ready driver). |

Describe the bug
On Windows 10, certain controls with the new Windows-11 styles do not render correctly on my system, in certain cases to the point of making them unreadable. I have seen this in the XAML Controls Gallery (1.2.21.0), but it is now showing up in wide-release items like the recent refresh of the Microsoft Store (22110.1401.17.0). I am surprised I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, which suggests it might be something particular to my system, but I don't what the culprit might be.
Probably the best way to explain this is with screenshots. Here's toward the bottom of the Button page in XAML Controls Gallery:
The foreground text is not visible.
Same thing with ToggleButton:
RadioButton looks off (is the selected RadioButton really supposed to render as a solid circle?):
Also ToggleSwitch:
Finally, Here's the new Microsoft Store:
Some of these (e.g. ToggleSwitch) look fine in light mode. Others look worse. For example, Here's a standard Button:
Side note: The baby-blue accent color does not match my system-preference accent color, which is the Windows 10 default blue. I don't like that (I would prefer my chosen accent color be honored), but I don't know if that's a bug or a deliberate design decision.
