Nightlight

In addition to the numerous customization options, Windows 10 also packs two color modes or themes that change the look and feel of your system. The light mode is the default mode that all users are accustomed to, whereas the dark mode enables you to set a darker set of colors over the desktop and applications.

Nightlight is a small utility designed to help you toggle between the dark and light modes of Windows 10 without too much hassle.

Following the download, you can decompress the archive in the desired location and run the executable to get started. Once launched, the tool can be found in the System Tray and you can easily activate the dark or light modes as you wish. On a side note, the developer specifies that the tool should work fine with any Windows 10 build after 1607.

In terms of Settings, the application allows you to specify whether the theme should include Apps, Explorer, System, Taskbar and the Start Menu. The changes take place immediately and you should be able to enjoy the newly activated theme.

The tool can come in handy for anyone who would like to explore these modes without having to bother with configuring Windows 10 settings. Generally speaking, to toggle the modes, you would need to create a new task for which you set a trigger and specify an interval when Windows should automatically switch for dark or light mode.

In the eventuality that you enjoy toggling between the dark and light mode on different times of the day and you would prefer to do so without having to go through the Settings every time, then perhaps you can consider giving Nightlight a try.
