Glitch to change Outlook appearance

Hello Microsoft team, I found a glitch when I try to change the new Outlook appearance, I can only select "Light" or "use system configuration" but I can't select the dark mode theme.

 

Microsoft Outlook version 1.2023.515.100 (Production).

Client version 20230505004.21.

    Does anyone know why this happened?  I suddenly cannot change my theme color.  I only have two choices.

    I am unsure why this it is happening. Microsoft did experience several technical issues this week. I can offer a screenshot of my settings to see if it will resolve your issue. 

    New Outlook: I was able to change to Dark Mode and have multiple themes available.

     

    Return to Classic Outlook and check your settings. I understand that if Use System Settings are selected in Classic Outlook, Dark will not work. Here are my Settings.
