Turning off High Contrast


My grandson turned on high contrast a few days ago. I was able to get it turned off but yesterday it came back on and I can't turn it off. It's rather annoying and makes some screens difficult to read.

I have tried changing the theme in ease of access settings, then clicked apply, and it doesn't stick. I have tried left-control, left alt and prtscrn keys, nothing happens. Can you tell me how to fix this? My next step is taking it to the geek squad.....

Thanks!
