Text in Installer is unreadable dark when Windows Dark Mode is used while HDR is enabled
Description
Started the installer for the first time, but the text in the Installer is unreadable dark when Windows Dark Mode is used while HDR is enabled. Taking a screenshot of it will make the text in the screenshot white and readable. Moving the window to another non-HDR-Monitor does fix it too. That's all I can say.
Steps To Reproduce
Just start the installer on an HDR-enabled monitor while windows dark mode is enabled.

nah
Found it that, once installed with dark theme (and mica) this also gets is the case for at least every explorer-window. Literaly all texts except for the ribbon area in the top gets unreadable on HDR Monitors but become readable when drawn to an non-HDR Monitor. Appears to be a quite critical bug to me.
Yeah same issue, on HDR display text is unreadable on the installer and UI within windows when installed.
Yup. This makes rectify11 not usable for me. (I see this in the installer, and based on the above didn't go further.)

Second this. Found this thread when searching for unreadable text in installer. I won't be able to install until this is fixed.
It's weird that I have this issue on my desktop but not on my laptop
This is affecting me on everything when I toggle HDR on. Sometimes the text doesnt render at all. It affects ALL system text. In all system apps, File Explorer and the lot through all themes.
This affects me when I plug in my laptop into my USB thunderbolt display. No problems when I disconnect it and use the built in screen.

Probably because when it is unplugged, it turns HDR off.
I suspect this issue is more Nvidia related and is appearing in other programs too, for example SystemInformer. I have no Intel Integrated Graphics with HDR support to test though.
It looks like the Mica effect is to blame, somehow the text is behind a transparent overlay. The text is visible when using Win + Shift + S to take screenshot.
You guys will have to post this issue in MicaForEveryone repo
Since it's the app that fails to render the texts when using it with Mica theme.
Happens on my non-HDR capable monitor..text is transparent...visible when snipping tool is on...
turns out it was Settings>System>Display>Color management>Automatically manage color for apps....it was on......and i turned it off
it made text in the installer transparent similarly to reports of people's stuff being ruined on an HDR-enabled monitor
Weird that im not seeing thaat option to turn off color management, the toggles just not there
Well i had downloaded windows hdr calibration in my case, uninstalled that now text is normal im not seeing that option in advanced settings mabey they removed it
nm ill try to find out how to get that option to show up, not working thoguht it was toggled hdr off

There is and has never been such a thing for Color Management. The closest thing I can think of is colour profiles. Uninstalling Windows HDR Calibrator won't do anything, that's purely to create ICC profiles for HDR displays, so Windows understands the displays capabilities better where brightness is concerned.
