Firefox update has changed my background colour without my permission and due to failing eyesight I can barely read anything. I have tried to change the background colour as per instructions but it will not revert to my original setting

Does this help? Type about:addons<enter> in the address box to open the Add-ons Manager. Hot key; <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> A)

On the left side of the page, select Appearance or Themes. Then select Default or System theme — auto. Now restart Firefox.
