When using Chrome with Montery Version 12.2.1 and dark mode, Google Drive background is black?

Hi everyone,


I just noticed today that in dark mode on the OS, the background in Google Drive when using Chrome is black. When I switch to light mode in the OS, it turns white. I figured this may have something to do with updating to Montery Version 12.2.1 since switching the light and dark modes affects the browser. Otherwise, I can ask Google about it.


Conversely, when using Safari, Google Drive does not have this problem.


I've attached screenshots of what I mean:


iMac 27″, macOS 11.2

Thanks, after looking at Google's forum, it looks like the Adobe Acrobat chrome extension that I had installed is what was making the issue. Now OS dark mode displays Google Drive in Chrome correctly.
