I can't find the dark mode on Canvas for my browers, and none of the links help I've come across. How do I access darkmode on my PC browsers?

The short answer is, you can't. There is no built-in ability to change Canvas to dark mode on a desktop or laptop computer. However, there is an existing Idea that has been suggested and has been a popular request from many people. You can find it at: [Theme Editor] Dark Theme/Dark Mode for Canvas. This idea is part of a larger Theme called: Improved UI Controls and Usability - Cleaner or fresher color and visual presentation. You'll see that this Theme has a status of "Identified", and you can read more about what this status means by going to: How do Ideas and Themes work in the Instructure Community?.
I know this isn't the answer you were looking for, but I hope the links I've provided will be of some help to you.
I do not think Canvas has a dark mode. You can change the theme / colors on your computer.

If you tell me what operating system you are using, I can provide directions for your computer.
It is absolutely insane that this idea is over half a decade old and it still isn't implemented except on mobile. My district blocks extensions on browsers that can add a dark mode so this is killing me. I currently am working with a chronic migraine with visual aura.
Our college would like to disable the Core Canvas tool "Syllabus" by default, so that it automatically doesn't show on Course Navigation menus. Is that possible? A fellow admin asked our CSM about disabling Syllabus by default, but the CSMs may be understandably busy at the moment. Below I rounded up some past comments…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
