    Removing the BLUE outline on just about everything in Windows 10


    Is there ANY way to remove the stupid blue highlight around just about every box in Windows 10 anersary edition.
    Searchwindows, saves etc. Everything highlighted blue around it.
    Narroator is off ofc, and I read that only removes it in previous windows.
    It does not work in Windows 10 anersary. It's driving me insane, blue boxes everywhere !
    I did not have this previous to the update, not sure if its related to color intensity slider that no longer works in anersary (I had it to 0)

    Help ;/

    WINDOWS 10 DOWNLOADED. BLUE OUTLINE BOX LINE NOW ON MACHINE ON ANYYTHING. IT'S PURPOSE? GOOD/BAD?

    The blue outline box apparently came with windows 10. IT CAN BE ANY SIZE FROM ONE LETTER/NUMBER TO A FULL PAGE OUTLINE. ALWAYS FOUR CORNERS. IT FOLLOWS MY WORK. NORTON DOES NOT REMOVE IT AND IT DOES NOT HINDER WHAT I AM DOING. IT IS ON THIS MESSAGE
    NOW, SINGLE LETTER BOXED. HAVE NEVER RUN INTO THIS BEFORE.

    Windows 10 Cal App - mismatch colors

    Hi there,

    My primary Cal is Google Calendar. i have syned it to the windows 10 cal app on my surface pro 4. the issue is, for some reason, the calendars colors as mismatched where some events are full colored in and some are just the outline of that color. There doesnt
    seem to be a pattern to this either.

    Also, i have multiple calendars, one for work, one of school, one for private etc. and use that system to color code my events and schedule. Now if one cal is colored blue another gre and another red, what happens is that in each of those some events will
    either be solid blue and some blue outlines, some solid grey and some grey outlines, some solid red and some red outlines. this just makes for an unorganized and unappealing cal app.

    so yes any help would be appreciated

    thank you

    Just one note: the only fact that you don't like it doesn't necessairly imply that it's "stupid". It's an "on focus" reminder. Not much stupid. Just say "that blue outline i don't like" instead *Wink
    Just consider the fact that also non-Microsoft Java FX by default uses the on focus outline...

    Anyway i'm experiencing the same with internet explorer's search bar. But it's limited to IE. It doesn't happen for example in notepad. So i think we are experiencing different issues
