Disabled button Background & Foreground color
If you don't like the rounded corners on the buttons, get rid of CornerRadius="2"

I've got a reasonable solution for Buttons. Other controls will likely need additional templates. Here's my App.xaml... <Application x:Class="MyApp.App" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:local="clr-namespace:MyNamespace" StartupUri="MainWindow.xaml"> <Application.Resources> <ResourceDictionary> <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries> <ResourceDictionary Source="DarkTheme.xaml" /> </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries> <!-- Add more styles for other controls as needed --> </ResourceDictionary> </Application.Resources> </Application> Here's the code to switch themes in MainWindow.xaml.cs... private void LightThemeButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { Uri lightThemeUri = new Uri("LightTheme.xaml", UriKind.Relative); ((App)Application.Current).ChangeTheme(lightThemeUri); } private void DarkThemeButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { Uri darkThemeUri = new Uri("DarkTheme.xaml", UriKind.Relative); ((App)Application.Current).ChangeTheme(darkThemeUri); }

Disabled button Background & Foreground color
After hours of hunting (I too am on the spectrum), I finally found a solution at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.controls.control.background?view=windowsdesktop-9.0 You need to use a button template and a style trigger: <Button Name="Debug" IsEnabled="False" FontSize="10">Click the Background <Button.Template> <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Button}"> <Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"> <ContentPresenter/> </Border> </ControlTemplate> </Button.Template> <Button.Style> <Style TargetType="{x:Type Button}"> <Setter Property="Background" Value="Blue"/> <Style.Triggers> <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"> <Setter Property="Background" Value="Green"/> </Trigger> </Style.Triggers> </Style> </Button.Style> </Button>
