    How to Change Context Menu Selector Color


    After this update : Feature update to Windows 10, version 1903
    my context menu (right click menu) selector become a brighter color. Here is a picture for example :

    (see I select "refresh")

    Before update, the color is a darker color. Feels contrast with the context menu background. Something like this :
    How to Change Context Menu Selector Color [​IMG]

    (see I select "back")

    My question, how do I change the color of the selector so it can be darker, more contrast than the background?

    :)

  2. Different colors of context menus???

    Almost everyone have windows 10 now right? Well when I use an OS, I look at even the slightest thing that bugs me. Windows 10 is full of 'em. Most importantly the GUI. I'n the long list of GUI problems, I would like to add another one from me. How to Change Context Menu Selector Color :)

    You see different places on windows OS have different color of context menu. Literally, distinguishable colors. When you click on desktop, explorer, taskbar, Edge, title bar icons, the list goes on. The thing Which bugs me the most is the black scheme of
    the taskbar context menu. It does not even changes when we select light mode. I have uploaded an image. Well to my surprise I discovered I'm not the only one! there is actually a web site siting the

    problem
    .

    What do you guys think? Is my opinion utter nonsense? Or it bugs you too ;P

  3. How can I change the color of the context menu?

    Hello! Before I got an update in April 2018, There use to be a white context menu when I right click on an icon.

    For example, when I click right click on the sound icon, again a white context menu pops up and gives me options of which tab I want to go to in sound options.

    But right now, ever since I've got the recent update of Windows 10, I now have a
    dark context menu. So when I right click on the sound icon, it gives me fewer options.

    Is there any way how to change the color of the context menu (how to get the
    classic context menu back)?

    If this doesn't make any sense, let me know.

    Thank you!

    Custom context menu entries

    So, just throwing this out there, in case somone knows.

    I have added a custom context menu entry for the program rightload, since by default the menu is broken in vistax64.

    It works pefect with single files, but when I select mutiple files and try to open, I get mutiple instances of the program (which makes sense), here is my entry:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Rightload\Rightload.exe --server=1 --autostart %1

    So the %1 passes the filename to the program, and when I select multiple files it is just opening multiple instances of rightload each with a different file.

    What I'd like to do is be able to pass a list of the files selected to the program. Since I know it is capable of uploading multiple files from the context menu, all in one instance.

    So, is there something I can pass besides %1 that will do this? I have looked around and can't seem to find an answer anywhere... *Frown How to Change Context Menu Selector Color :(
