Dark coloured bottles interrupt the path of light such that light cannot reach silver chloride in the bottles and its decomposition is prevented. It is known that silver chloride decomposes to silver and chlorine in the presence of light

We store silver chloride in dark coloured bottles in order to protect it from the effect of sunlight.
Sunlight can decompose silver chloride and make it silver and chlorine. So, if we store silver chloride in normal bottles, we may not find our silver chloride later.
