Windows 10: Custom Color

If I try to use "Settings > Personalization > Colors > Custom Color", the color dialog opens and then the Settings window closes after a few seconds. I have tried this in high contrast and it does the same thing.

Windows 10 1803.

Custom Color Lost in Update

Hi Regina,

One of the hidden features of your updated Windows 10 is to set a custom color. If you want to access the custom accent color, follow the instructions below:

• Press Win + R to open the run command window.
• Type control color and hit OK.
• Reveal the extended menu by clicking on Show color mixer.
• Using different sliders, you can choose the color, hue, brightness , and
  intensity.
  
• Save Changes once you're done.
