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.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Without her own home and pressured by rent, a 25-year-old bought a small 15-meter boat, gradually renovated the interior by herself, transformed the interior with paint, new flooring, a larger bathroom, and started living on the canals, paying much less per month.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.
