    Color tones or white balance keeps changing depending on what is being displayed on the screen


    Hi

    I have a problem with my screen: color tones are off, being shifted towards yellow. Strangely, the extent of the shift depends on the overall brightness of what is being display. For example, this browser page is very white, so the shift towards yellow is very strong (it does not only affect the browser, as the search prompt of the task bar is also very yellow). However, if I overlay Spotify (black) on half the screen, then the color of what was yellow (browser or search prompt) turns whiter. Yet, you cqn still see it is yellowish, even in Spotify. If I put spotify full screen, the shift towards yellow is almost completely gone. So it seems that for some reason the display constantly adapts the color tone or the white balance depending on the overall luminosity or colors being displayed. I updated my graphic card drivers (Geforce GT640) and my Screen (Asus PB238), without success. I didn't find help anywhere online, as the problem is not straightforwardly explainable. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

    :)

  2. Changing the taskbar color to white in Windows 10

    Hi Michael,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.

    In Windows 10 there is no option for changing the color to white but you can change it to different colors. To change the color of the task bar I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

    • In the search box, type settings.
    • Then select personalization.
    • Click on color option on the left side.
    • You will find an option called “show color on start, taskbar and start icon”.
    • You need to on the option and then you can change the color accordingly.
    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    How do I change my monitor back to color--it changed to black & white?

    Hi Charles,

    There are several reasons why you're monitor switched to black and white. To be able to change it back to colored, try to check if these ideas will work:

    • Make sure that your monitor cable connector is in tact (un-plug and re-plug the cable, and make sure it's properly connected).

    • Changing screen display will depend on your monitor's model. Kindly check the manufacturer's website on how to manage the screen display options.

    • Make sure that you have the latest driver installed.

    You can also check the support articles below, these will guide you if you're having trouble with your Windows monitor:


    Keep us updated.
