    How do I change the background colour of a Window in Windows 10?


    How do I change the background colour of a window I am writing in? When using a word processor, for example, I find writing on a white background stressful, I would like the background colour of the window to be, say, faun. I used to be able to do this in earlier versions of Windows.

    Thanks!

    Eric.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. Changing the Window background colour from white to a pale colour for Windows 10

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    Sorry for the inconvenience caused with Windows 10.

    "window background colour from white to something softer", Are you referring to title bar of the window OR the white background in the file explorer, context menu etc.,?

    If yes, Please be informed that this is by design and it cannot be changed from white to different color.



    As this is the feature you would like to see in windows 10, you may provide your suggestions in the feedback app.

    It will be directly referred by our developer’s team for further improvement.

    Follow the steps:

    • Go to Start, enter the phrase Windows Feedback, and then select Windows Feedback.
    • See if someone else has given similar feedback by entering the topic, such as Microsoft Music.
    • If you find similar feedback, select it, add any details, and then select Me too.
    • To narrow your search to a specific category, pick the category that most closely matches your feedback (so it gets to the right people quickly). For example, for feedback about the Music app, select Apps > Music.
    • If you don’t find any similar feedback, select New Feedback, and choose a topic from Select a category and then select a subcategory.
    • Enter your feedback (the more details the better!), add a screenshot if you can, and you're done.

    Hope the information helps, do reply if you need further assistance.



    Thank you.

  4. How do I change the background colour of a Window in Windows 10?

    Windows 10 Background / Theme Colour changed

    Dear Friends,

    After recent Windows 10 update, the colour of the Windows 10 Background / theme - The Blue colour Window picture - appears changed - now it is a bit lighter blue not like the earlier dark blue.

    Is it due to some problem in my computer or the recent update is made so?

    I am not happy about the new colour and want to get the dark blue.

    Please reply.

    Thanks

    VKSBK
