    Hi, I'm Bernard, a fellow Windows user. I'm happy to help!

    I understand the issue you have. There is nothing to worry about. I am here to assist. To change the Windows Explorer background to white, kindly follow the steps below:

    Go to Settings> Personalization > Colors > Choose your mode

    Change it to "Light"

    Note: It will change the color mode of Windows Explorer and the Settings app.
