Can't enable dark mode

[rafe]

Hi,

I have my Windows theme set to dark, but Directory Opus doesn't detect it, and it displays everything with a white background, which burns my eyes. I can't find the setting for the manual override. Can somebody guide me where to find it?

Also, is it possible that my Windows installation is buggy, should I reformat my PC? Other programs, including Office, detect the settings fine.

Thanks

Thank you.

There isn't a one button switch (at least not yet), but you can install a theme which is quick and easy.
