When I put the pointer arrow on a tab to open it the tab background turns black and the type is white. It used to be the opposite and I want to change it back to white background black type. How do I do that? I do not like this change at all. This happened right after your new Firefox update also.

Hi Miss MZ, which Firefox theme are you using?

This article will get you to the Themes section of the Add-ons page to check on that -- your current theme should be at the top of the list: Use themes to change the look of Firefox.

The "System" theme should adapt to your light theme/dark theme preference set at the Windows OS level. Other themes set their own colors. Or the Firefox Color add-ons lets you pick the colors.
