  2. NO color in Windows 10

    Andre,

    Your suggestion for the restore of color worked. Thanks!

    The Repair for Office did not fix the problem with Outlook. I can still only access my emails and folders with

    Run Outlook.exe /safe

    Is this problem due to Office 2010 only? I had the same issue with my desktop, but on my laptop Outlook was working fine, until a few days ago.

  3. NO color in Windows 10

    I have a Lenovo T420 with Windows 10 Pro. Until the last update 2 days ago, it seemed to be working fine. Now I have NO color in Windows and any apps within it.

    Also, Outlook in Office 10 gives me a no display screen, except for calendar reminders, The only way I can get at the email is in safe mode via RUN.

    If you have 10 Anniv, it's R of the date/time in system tray. If 10-1511, L of the time. Or, R click empty space on desktop, click 'Personalize'

    pre-Anniv 10, Action Center icon is 1st one L of the time in lower R corner. Action Center is the heart of the customization and settings for 10. Where it is, is as basic as Control Panel to prev Windows OS's

    I found it but I don't have all switches you show in your screenshot.

    A couple about taskbar but none about windows.

  10. I am very interested in this thread because all my windows have the same color in the title / caption, cannot tell which window is the active window anymore.

    In the colors selection of Personalization, I have:
    Automatically pick an accent color from my background = ON
    Show color on Start, taskbar, action center, and title bar = ON
    Make Start, taskbar, and action center transparent = OFF

  12. Not apparently going to work for me because I was using a custom theme from the W7 upgrade, most annoying.

    OK!

    Cancel my last statement, it's changing the FONT color in the caption, not the CAPTION color!

    To access hidden control panel, press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog. Copy-and-paste the following line into the Run dialog and run the command:
    rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl,Advanced,@Advanced
    The “Show color mixer” option here will let you pick any color you want for your window title bars.

  15. Found that already, doesn't affect the situation that there's no way to tell the difference between active and inactive windows.
