Picture and menu disappeared after turning off high contrast UI

[HarleeStauff]

Hello, I seem to have an issue. I was messing with settings and turned off "High Contrast UI" to see what that looked like, and now my picture and that menu disappeared and now I can't access that side of canvas. How do I get that back?

I don't know why that happened, I can't replicate it just by setting the high contrast UI. It could be an issue at your institution, where they misconfigured this option's Theme, but I can't test that.

Can you try this, to toggle the option off and see if it fixes it?
Add /profile/settings to your Canvas base URL (e.g., https://canvas.instructure.com/profile/settings in Free For Teachers). That should take you to your settings page, with an option to deselect "High Contrast UI" at the bottom of the page.

If it works, and if enabling the High Contrast UI again causes the issue again, you may want to tell your local Canvas support team (to help users who need better contrast).
