+ If you don't want Emacs to follow the system's Dark mode setting,
+customize the variable @code{w32-follow-system-dark-mode} to a
+@code{nil} value; then Emacs will use the default Light mode
+regardless of system-wide settings. Changing the value of this
+variable affects only the Emacs frames created after the change, so
+you should set its value in your init file (@pxref{Init File}), either
+directly or via @kbd{M-x customize-variable}, which lets you save the
+customized value, see @ref{Saving Customizations}.
