ווי אַזוי צו אויטאָמאַטיש באַשטימען פינצטער און ליכט מאָדעס אין Windows 10

If you don’t already know, your Windows 10 computer comes with a dark mode to help relieve your eyestrain and give your computer a more darkish look. The option is located in the Settings app and you can enable and disable it at any time you want.

The dark mode is mostly used at night times and the light mode is for daytime. If you this is also how you use it on your computer, you may have to toggle the mode manually each day.

You can actually make the process a bit easier for yourself by creating a task that automatically toggles dark mode on Windows 10 on or off for you. It’s pretty easy to set it up and you only need to do it once. It then runs automatically everyday and toggles the modes as per your specification.

Use Task Scheduler To Automatically Enable Dark Mode On Windows 10

Task Scheduler lets you automate a number of tasks on your Windows 10 computer. You can use it to create a task that auto-enables the dark mode at night time on your PC. You can set up a specific time for it when the task is triggered and the mode is enabled.

  • Click on the Cortana search box, search for Task Scheduler, and click on it when you see it in the search results.
  • דריקט אויף די קאַמף menu at the top and select the option that says שאַפֿן באַסיק טאַסק.
  • Enter a name for your task, an optional description if you want, and click on ווייַטער to continue. You’ll want to use something like געבן דאַרק מאָדע as the name so you can recognize the task at a later time.
  • The following screen lets you set the frequency of the task. You’ll want to choose טעגלעך so the dark mode gets enabled every night on your system. Then click on ווייַטער צו פאָרזעצן.
  • It’ll ask what time you’d like to activate the dark mode. Choose the time when you usually enable the mode on your computer and click on ווייַטער.
  • Here comes the part where it asks what the task should do when it’s triggered. Select אָנהייב אַ פּראָגראַם as that’s what the task needs to do and click on ווייַטער.
  • On the following screen, you’ll be asked what program the task should run when it’s launched. You need to set the options as the following so it enables the dark mode.

    Program/script:

    %SystemRoot%system32WindowsPowerShellv1.0powershell.exe

    Add arguments (optional):

    New-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionThemesPersonalize -Name SystemUsesLightTheme -Value 0 -Type Dword -Force; New-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:SOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionThemesPersonalize -Name AppsUseLightTheme -Value 0 -Type Dword -Force
