3. Close the window or continue to setting the color.
To change the colors, do this:
1. Navigate to Settings and then Personalization if you closed the window.
2. Select Colors and make sure ‘Automatically pick an accent color from my background’ is switched off.

You should see your changes reflected immediately in the window, task bar and every element of your desktop. Color changes are dynamic so they don’t have to be saved either.
