Are you using an app? That sounds like its the settings on your device that need to be adjusted.

If you are on a mobile device then you would need to adjust your settings; for example mobile devices have dark and light modes. If you provide us with more details in terms of your device then we may better assist @Hank67.

This is not a TurboTax program related question.  In Windows, go to Settings / System / Display/ Brightness and color

If you altered your background on your computer and it's no longer in the default, white screen mode, you will have to change your settings back to view TurboTax better. This is not a TurboTax program related question, but you can go to Windows and then Settings to change the brightness and color you see.
