How to turn Dark Mode On or Off in OneNote or Outlook

A few months ago, Microsoft had rolled out Dark Mode for OneNote on iOS. We had covered the feature in detail then. Fast forward a few months, the software giant has now rolled out a similar capability for Windows users. In this post, we will see how to enable Dark mode for OneNote or Outlook on Windows 10.

Enable Dark mode for OneNote on Windows 10

To turn on the Dark Mode for OneNote in Windows 10, you’ll have to maneuver through some menu settings within the app:

1. Open OneNote
2. Choose Settings and more option.
3. Select Settings.
