Cannot see _ (underscore) in WPF content
I know im late to the party but I believe that if you don't have the Label associated to a TextBox than you should use a TextBlock instead.
Changing your control to a TextBlock solves this issue since only Label has the mnemonic support
This is because Label
supports defining a mnemonic based on its content, which is done by prefixing the mnemonic with an underscore (the same thing that happens in Windows Forms with &
).
Use a double underscore if you want a literal one to appear:
<Label Content="test__t" Name="label2" />
Labels support mnemonics (i.e. you can use ctrl+(key) to give them focus). You define the mnemonic key using an underscore.

If you want to see underscores, replace single underscores with double underscores.
This style solves your problem:
<Style x:Key="{x:Type Label}"
TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
<Setter Property="Template">
<Setter.Value>
<ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Label}">
<Border Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
SnapsToDevicePixels="true">
<ContentPresenter HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"
RecognizesAccessKey="False"
SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" />
</Border>
<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsEnabled"
Value="false">
<Setter Property="Foreground"
Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.GrayTextBrushKey}}" />
</Trigger>
</ControlTemplate.Triggers>
</ControlTemplate>
</Setter.Value>
</Setter>
