Enable or disable high contrast in Windows 11

Windows 11 installs with built-in high-contrast themes that help people with poor vision and light sensitivity. Although you can use Windows 11's color filters, it still won't help you if you're having trouble seeing what's on your screen.

Try high-contrast themes to help you distinguish between things that differ only by color. This changes the color palette of objects on the screen, which can help you see clearly.
