When ADM window is focused, the title bar buttons are barely visible

Describe what issue or improvement you have with the usability design

This is a severe accessibility issue.

The ADM window is the one where my cursor is, with the purple outline. Unlike other Windows application windows, when the currently active/focused window is ADM and the theme is Light, the title bar buttons are pure white on a light grey background, making them barely visible, with a contrast ratio of 1.1

In dark mode there's no issues, ADM has the same colors for title bar buttons as the other default Windows apps like Calculator.

That's a glitch with the window framework where the title bar is not updated properly. @ChenYiLins you have any idea why winui3 does that? It seems to mostly appear when the app is open during a switch on my end

Update: Sorry, I forgot a word

appear when the app is NOT open during a switch on my end

It's a common issue in WinUI, and has been around for a long time :(

It is true that the way of using TitleBar before will lead to this bug, but I don't know why, on my machine, I still can't reproduce this bug stably. (;´д`)ゞ (In other words, I can't make an effective repair for this)
