change the text color on this (don't know the name of it)

[Guest]

so, I installed a dark theme on my computer but some text is black. on the screenshot you can see the text I am talking about. it's the text that shows information about the folder I am in.

is there any way to change that black text into white?
windows 7 by the way.

no, does not help. I've tried that solution already, could not make it because it seems that there is no way to change that without modding some archive or something, there is no way to personalize that font color - I can be wrong though.

odd cause there was always an inverted theme on other versions of windows. strange you can't change that text colour

there is actually a "way" to do it. when you wrote: "inverted theme" I thought about the high contrast themes, windows 7 has a black high contrast theme. so, I just selected it and the black text where my problem is actually became yellow. the problem is, that the dark theme I want does not supports high contrast, it's an aero-only theme 🙁

I did some research on the net also, it says that the part that can actually change the text color where my problem is, is hard coded and said that nobody - till 2013 - was able to discover a way to change it.
