Default GEEK Windows 10 Question
I use Chrome.
Why did the letters etc, turn light grey in my AOL mail, and other programs?
I've tried to get it back to be darker but can't eliminate the faint gray letters that now appear.
Any ideas on how to fix this irritating thing?

Because black text means it is something important.


You say nothing important. Hence gray.
