Non-metro menus left black after Windowblinds 10 uninstall

Black backgrounds with black text make things difficult.

from Stardock Forums

Since a recent Windows 10 update, Windowblinds somehow became incompatible with my computer and long story short, I decided to uninstall it.  But now it's left a glitch on my system where some text windows or system messages appear black on black.  Black background with black text.  This is primarily prevalent when trying to use Photoshop CS2 or using an installation wizard.  Things like that where it's not a windows metro thing.

I'm running Windows 10 Home 64 bit.
CPU: AMD FX-8350 Eight-core
16 gb ram
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6gb

Any input would be appreciated.  I'd like to avoid outright reinstalling my OS out of fear of loosing data and having to purge my system of bloatware and windows-native tracking if I can help it.
