This would switch to the old Win95 style, and give you back control over the color of many controls. In Lazarus, you can turn theme support off by unchecking "Use manifest file to enable themes" in the Project Options. This works also in Win10 - see attached screenshot: Yes, I disabled themes in win 7 (and forgot about it). Thank you so much. It worked after unchecking the "Use manifest file to enable themes". It would be even better if the options can be changed in runtime so that users can decide whether to enable themes.

Can you reproduce this in a small example program so that differences regarding the project settings can be avoided?

Hewlett Packard, when you select a professional grade laptop or desktop, as of today is still providing Windows 7 professional preinstalled, and includes an upgrade DVD to Windows 10, which you may decide to use, but at your own risk.
