    Font has red/blue/yellow "shadow". Not completeley black


    Hi all,

    I setup my desktop from scratch and ended up with the following issue:
    In some applications the font seems to be not completely black (has some weired coloring mostly red/blue).
    I had this issue way back and the solution was a very easy change in some setting. I just can't remember it.
    Adjust clear type text did not help and wasn't the solution back then. Calibration is also not the problem. The resolution in NVIDIA settings is set to native.
    Below is a link to screenshot (btw. if I take a screenshot the jpg looks just fine. I did this thoth my mobile phone)
    My Monitor: BenQ PD3200Q

    My Win10 version is: Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.450)

    Any help would be highly appreciated

  2. Yellow font hyperlinks

    After upgrading to windows 10 some hyperlinks show up with yellow fonts making them difficult for me to read. Does anyone know how to change the default color for hyperlink fonts from yellow to blue or red?

    Thanks for your time

    Icon Font - lost white/shadowed font

    I recently installed a new hard drive and did a fresh install of Windows 10. As I started to reinstall programs, I was happy to see that the font was white/shadowed because I had somehow lost that feature before and my fonts were very hard to read.

    I transferred a bunch of files off my old hard drive onto my new one while I slept. In the morning, my white/shadowed font was replaced with just white and now all of them are much harder for me to read.

    I have found a way to get the font to switch to black, but it isn't very satisfactory. Does anyone know how to get the white/shadowed font back?

    Edited with Answer:

    Turns out my spouse was messing with controls!

    I solved the issue. If anyone else would like to know what I did:

    Use the search bar to search "advanced system settings" (which you can also access through the control panel). Then choose "performance settings." Then check "Use drop shadows for icons..." And hit ok.
