Well, i installed a custom theme that i downloaded and it changed it. So it is possible to change it. I am just trying to find a way to change it back to something usable while maintaining the rest of the theme.

and i am talking about windows 7 desktop OS not windows phone.

I make custom themes with Ave's Windows7 Style Builder & the outer frame is the same as the outer frame of the explorer window the text color is the same as a explorer window color like the notepad where you type in it the keys cannot be changed

I am actually seeing a bit different of an issue. When i type in Notepad the letters are almost white on a grey background (grey much like the buttons on OSK) however the OSK is not the same, it has very dark grey lettering just a bit darker than the standard key color. The explorer background isn't bad.

Post a link to the theme you are using & I will look at it.

Ouhk, didn't notice that it can be changed cause i don't use OSK at all.

It can be changed but you will need to ask Mr. Grimm it's not cool to change someones else theme. It's a window color change. If you look for a other theme look at the note pad window it will be the keyboard text color on OSK. Screenshots is that theme of Mr. Grimm
