Windows 10: WTB Registry professionals, my accent colors have a mind of their own!

Oh man. So years of images. Nothing has ever failed me. I just got rid of them all to start fresh after imaging over to a new/larger SSD.

Of course, coincidentally (maybe) at that point, I began having major color issues and had no previous image to restore to cause i'm an idiot.

Take note of the "years of images" part. This pc is set up in such a way, that i'd never be able to replace even half of it - so if i dont keep this image rolling for the rest of my days, i might need lithium

Now ive always used "auto select color from my background" and its now failing me spectacularly. I'm not sure what got corrupted where, hence why I'm here.

If I toggle it off, then on. It will select the proper color everywhere and persist for exactly 1 restart. The second restart, and my alt+ctrl+del & my restarting screen, both go to what appears to be the default blue. (everything in windows still retains proper accent color ironically enough).

I tried to toggle off "auto" and select a color manually. This color also persists properly for a restart. After which point, it goes to a flourescent green instead of blue #boggle.

Now my desktop background is green, and auto select chooses a proper medium-dark green to pair it with. Where the blue comes from, or the flourescent green when auto select is off and I select a close shade manually - is beyond me.

I remember this happening years ago, many windows versions ago, and I ended up needing to restore to fix it... but I cant restore now so I hope someone with deeper know-how chimes in.

Ive tried sfc which is clean. dism which is also clean. Of course my windows and drivers are all kosher cause im an ocd enthusiast. Turned sync off and cleared cloud data, same behavior. Tried turning sync on, and syncing to my other pc which I set with the same background/color to try and "push" it to this pc. Same behavior.

I even tried the reg files in this post Ctrl-Alt-Delete Screen Color won't change with accent color

I'm ocd to the point that i'll suffer on the deepest level if my beloved pc changes colors on me every restart till the end of time >.<

Thanks for reading my nyt worst seller
