Hello all,

I had set my display appearance to the Brick Color scheme, then I clicked
the Advanced button, clicked in the Window Text so the Item being selected
was Window. I then changed the color to Red. I clicked ok and my display was
changed. I then wanted to go back to the windows classic default appearance.
I changed the color scheme back to Windows classic, clicked the advance
button, selected Window Text which made the item field select Window and
selected the Color WHITE. Clicked OK.

The problem is that all of my web browser and Outlook windows are still RED.
Can anyone tell me how I can change this to be just WHITE.

I have even rebooted my laptop several times after changing the display
settings hoping that there is some way I can revert back to the default. If
anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thank you.

Hi Keith,

Don't use Outlook, but use as an example:

For IE: Tools/Internet Options/General/Accessibility.
