Additional context
You may find the contrast themes sometimes exiting in seconds after applied, especially in such a case in which your computer wakes up after sleeping for long. Do not worry. This is a [bug](feedback-hub:?contextid=941&feedbackid=07d66c7b-e427-4683-9bbf-28567f7fdb12&form=1&src=1) in Windows.
Closing per the comment above; I'll notify the .com team about it. (I do note that this affects MSStudio users as they are redirected to this login page when trying to log in in the app.)

I am sure this is a .org bug rather than a .com one.
This bug is originally reported on MuseScore website #378119.
