Since updating to Thunderbird 78.4, I can't customize the background color of the "compose message" window. It's black and that's the way it stays. I've tried changing it in settings (in General and Composition) and background of the "read" window will change to what I want it to be, but the "compose" window stays black.

What's going on???

Thank you,

Linda

Have you tried using the default or light or Dark themes in Addons > themes?

The background colours, actually almost all ow the windows colours borders buttons etc, are actually picked up from your windows 10 theme, so obviously something in there is set to black.

Well, I'm old school, I still have Win7. But I've never had this issue before. Yes, I use themes. I prefer the dark ones. But I've never had a problem before with the reading pane being a normal, light color and then when I hit "reply", the reply screen is black. And I can't change it, not even within the reply screen itself. I've tried several different ways and I'll choose a light color (I like a light grey) and it goes right back to black again. And this only started after downloading the latest Thunderbird update.

However, I will experiment with other themes, just to see if that gets rid of the black reply background. Thank you for the suggestion.

That worked! Thank you, Matt.

That did not work for me. Other suggestions?
