### Color Theme
By default, Firefox follows the operating system [theme](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-themes-change-look-of-firefox#w_managing-themes) (Light or Dark) for buttons, menus, and windows, but not for settings pages and websites. Betterfox ensures sub-pages and websites also match your system theme.
By default, Firefox follows the operating system [theme](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-themes-change-look-of-firefox#w_managing-themes) for buttons, menus, and windows, but not for settings pages and websites.
However, you can override this and force Firefox's settings pages and websites to use a Light or Dark theme.

> Betterfox already ensures both sub-pages and websites match your operating system theme (option `2`), but you may want to force the Light or Dark theme.
