WindowsFormsSettings.TrackSystemHighContrastMode Property

If this property is enabled, your application automatically applies the DevExpress “High Contrast” skin when Windows high contrast mode is on, and disables UI selectors that allow users to change skins and skin palettes. Otherwise, if this property is disabled, the active application skin does not depend on the actual state of Windows high contrast mode, and users can select any skin or skin palette. Windows high contrast mode is configured in the “Personalize | High contrast settings” screen.
