The Finder fonts for files and folders are white. This cannot be changed by the user. I never recommend using Accessibility > DIsplays > Invert colors due to the visual aberration it creates, and that it turns white file and folder font colors to black.

Hi le-papillon,


We see that you're trying to change the color scheme in your folders. Use the Accessibility Options panel on Mac may help achieve the required result.


In System Preferences > Accessibility > Displays, you can select Invert Colors. This will change the look of your Mac and can change the color of the folder font.


If this doesn't achieve what you'd like, you can leave feedback here about this: Feedback - macOS - Apple


Take care!
