  1. Screenshots are brighter than usual when using HD color settings


    When I use the HDR HD color settings of windows, it all works fine but when I try to take a screenshot the screen becomes really white, like the contrast is super bad and its super hard to see anything.

  2. Font color much brighter in Windows 8

    The font color in the Windows 8 command prompt is much brighter than in Windows 10. Is there a way to make the font color from Windows 10 like in Windows 8?

  3. Font color much brighter in Windows 8

    I figured it out:

    Right click command prompt title bar, Proprieties, Color Tab, select "Text on the screen", select the white color you want to change on the color palete. In "Selected color Values you change it in the following way:

    Red = 255
    Green = 255
    Blue = 255

    For some reason the default in Windows 10 is:

    Red = 242
    Green = 242
    Blue = 242

    If you change the font to Lucida Console and increase the size to 18 dots it gets even better.
