    Good evening

    I have issue rolling back to windows 2004, the 20h2 version is not very stable for me.

    I installed the 20h2 on 25.10.2020 and i'm still in the 10 days to go back to the previous version but i cannot get back.

    I just downloaded the update on Friday, and it forced my screen from its normal colors to "Light Mode" or "Dark Mode", neither of which I really like. Is there some way (besides using a Custom color setup) to get it back to what it was? And more importantly, WHY WOULD MICROSOFT DO THIS? Couldn't they have given the option of leaving the screen colors as they were rather than forcing a change to one of these two modes? I understand Microsoft trying to push Edge or Bing, but this just makes no sense to me.
