Cannot change backround color of loaded page to my preference. I want black text on a light green backround.

You also need to disable web page colors:

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [ ] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

Your suggestion does not work.

None of what you say works. I cannot change the page backround color or font color.
