Microsoft Starts Adjustments to Dark Mode in Windows 11, Updating Dialog Boxes and Preparing New Features for Version 25H2.

Microsoft has begun updating the dark mode of Windows 11. The feature was introduced in Windows 10 in 2016, but it has always presented inconsistencies.

Many areas of the system still looked mixed, alternating between light and dark interfaces.

Now, the latest preview of the system shows that the company is finally making progress on this front.

Updated Dialog Boxes

The Windows observer known as Phantomofearth identified significant changes.

The dialog boxes used to copy or delete files appear in dark mode for the first time.

Previously, these prompts maintained a light appearance, undermining the interface’s intent.

Despite this, the transition is still not complete, as the buttons remain light, contrasting with the darkened background.

What May Be Ahead

Even without an official announcement, tests indicate that a major update may be on the way.

The expectation is that Microsoft will implement these changes in version 25H2, anticipated for this year.

Features like Control Panel, Properties window, and Run Prompt remain limited to light mode, underscoring the need for broader adjustments.

History of Delays

The company’s history does not inspire confidence. In Windows 10, dark mode did not fully arrive in File Explorer until years after its launch.

In contrast, Apple has managed to offer a more consistent experience on macOS since 2018, when it launched Mojave with full support for the feature.

Additional News

In addition, Microsoft is working on a redesign of Liquid Glass, with a greater focus on transparency and visual effects.

The package of changes reinforces the company’s attempt to deliver a more uniform visual experience, even though the process is happening at a slow pace.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

Vietnamese craftsman builds a UFO-shaped boat from scratch, installs jet propulsion, solar panels, and automatic doors, takes the futuristic structure to the water, and proves that his handcrafted “ship” floats and sails in a test that turns fantasy into floating reality.

Trump threatens Brazil with a 25% tariff and uses illegal deforestation as an argument to pressure exports; US report accuses environmental failures, while recent decline in the Amazon exposes a dispute that could impact Brazilian trade and politics.

What is trash for many became the entrance of a house for an Australian who spent seven years collecting over 450,000 cans and bottles on beaches and at festivals, demonstrating how a system that pays for recycled packaging can transform waste into income and remove trash from the environment.

How much does plastering cost per square meter? Professionals quote an average between R$ 25 and R$ 30.
