Selection highlight for filenames is black instead of yellow

Far Manager version

3.0.6504.0 x64

OS version

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

Other software

Currently, in the nightly build, selections are black instead of the old and reliable yellow. I also checked the stable build, and it's even worse there—the selection had black text on a black background. Are you experiencing this issue as well?

Later I noticed that only executable files turn black when selected. If this is not a bug and it's the intended behavior, how can I restore the familiar yellow highlight color for all selected files?

Thank you.

Steps to reproduce

select all files.

Expected behavior

No response

Actual behavior

executable file names are black instead of yellow

Well, if user has no custom highlighting, than I'd rather suggest to reset settings to default (or remove highlight.db file).

Deleting highlight.db from AppData\Roaming\Far Manager\Profile quickly resolves the issue. Thank you!
