How to Change Window Colors in Windows 10

If you’re tired of the default window colors in Windows 10, you can easily customize them to better suit your style. In this guide, I’ll walk you through how to personalize the window color settings so your workspace feels more like you.

Step 1: Open "Settings"

Start by clicking the “Start” button at the bottom left of your screen and select “Settings”. You can also quickly open the Windows settings by pressing Win + I on your keyboard.

Step 2: Go to the "Personalization" Section

In the Settings window, choose “Personalization”. This section allows you to customize the visual appearance of Windows, including the background, colors, themes, and lock screen.

Step 3: Open the "Colors" Tab

From the menu on the left, select “Colors”. Here, you can adjust the main interface color, which will appear in title bars, the taskbar, Start menu, and other elements.

Step 4: Choose a Color

Scroll down to the “Windows Colors” section. Here, you’ll find both preset color options and the option to select a custom shade. Choose one of the suggested colors or click “Custom Color” to pick a unique hue.

Step 5: Enable Color for Windows and Taskbar

After selecting your color, scroll a bit further and check the options labeled “Show accent color on Start, taskbar, and action center” and “Show accent color on title bars and windows borders”. This will apply your chosen color to title bars, taskbar, and other interface elements.

Step 6: Save Your Changes

Once everything is set, just close the Settings window — the changes will take effect automatically. Your windows and other interface elements will now display in the color you selected.

Additional Customization
