what seems like a very basic question but I have never been able to get �visited sites� to be a color I chose under �internet options>appearance>colors.� It seems to imply that it will be used on the actual web site but I want it on the page with all the links that I have just Googled a particular topic. I don�t think there is a way but I minus well ask it while I am here: Is there a shortcut for �last tab used?� For example: Go from tab 10 to tab 2 then press a shortcut to go back to tab 10?
I do a web search and visit a selected site, there after I return to the web search page. Previous viewed websites are highlighted in purple, and non viewed website are blue. Maybe I'm going color blind, but sometimes it's difficult for me to distinguish between purple and blue. How can I change the color of previous viewed websites on search page?
Windows7, IE8 History Browsing: "View By Order Visited Today"
Instead History will show Recents Pages by X pages (Recent FIFO method), it shows by "Today".
Every time when it is 00:00 (midnight), it resets all the history I've had.
I want to change it to "View By Order Visited" or "View By Order Visited for couple days", instead of "View By Order Visited Today" (Browsing History displays only for one day), So that If it pass midnight - I could still see the last links.

I just installed a new theme on my computer. The background is lighter than previous themes. Contrary to instructions, the Font color remained white, which makes reading the icons difficult. I have performed a search, but I have been unable to find a way to change the font color to black.
You know the highlight color for when you click on icons is blue, I'm not talking about the thing in the Advanced Options under personalization, but the color that highlights the icons when you click on them. I want to change that from blue to red, and I don't know how. I think there is a registry key you need to modify to do it. I did it in linux, but this is Windows.

Whenever I set an image as my desktop background, the colors change slightly. The image I'm using is on the left, and my desktop is on the right. It could just be me, but If you look closely, you might see some odd lines on my desktop background around the bottom: Both my screen resolution and the image are 1440 by 900.
I have disabled desktop composition (and all other options form "performance options", except the "use visual styles in windows and buttons" for power consumption reasons) and I can't seem to be able to change the titlebar and taskbar color... I tried to change it in "window color and appearance", but any color I set the titlebar to be, it just stays as a pale blue. Is this normal? If I enable the "desktop composition" then I can change the color. Is there any way around this?

How do I change font to Black? The fonts on all the Windows 7 windows, titles, information screens, are all some kind of washed out blue or gray. Almost impossible to read! How do I get just plain Black text?
my sister has macular degeneration and has trouble with the glare of her monitor. i want to be able to make the default screen color grey instead of white in all programs. is that possible? For example, i was able to make the screen color grey in Word and the font black so that it opens that way everytime. but that is only one program. i would like to be able to do this so that everything works that way.
Can I change the text on the logon screen, ctrl/alt/del etc., to something black? The current white text isn't good readable so I want change the font and color, but only there.
but today I am stumped.In Windows XP, there was an option to change the logon screen background color:HKEY_USERS.DEFAULTControl PanelColorsYou could change the string "Background" to any 3-digit RGB color code you wanted.(i.e., 0 0 0 = black, etc.)This color would show up on CTRL+ALT+DEL plus it would show up when you logged in remotely using Remote Desktop.Changing the logon screen background wallpaper is great when you're physically at the machine (and I've already done this), but you don't see it when you're connecting via Remote Desktop. Instead you're stuck with the OEM blue background color.The same key I mentioned above does in fact exist in Windows 7, but it doesn't appear to have any effect.
I'm using Office 2010 on Windows 7 (64bit) with high contrast theme (white on black). When I select part of the text (in a word document, for instance) the selected text is highlighted with white background color. Is it possible to change the background color and the font color of the selected text?
It seems that changes made to the "Window" colors in the "Windows Color" dialog (accessible from personalization), have an impact on those colors which leads to the conclusion that those colors are computed based on those settings. I'm asking whether there is an option to modify selected text colors while still using black background and white text.
I upgraded to Windows 7 Prof yesterday (from XP Prof) and now i m exploring features in Windows 7.I notice the color of WLAN in the bottom right color of my taskbar is showing as white which is not very good to indicate the signal strength. i would like to ask how can i change it to green.I do not want to go Control panel -> Personalise to change the desktop theme or color scheme as this will change all the icons color. I just want to change the WLAN icon color.
Some how I have changed some settings on Windows 7 or IE9 that makes all my text backgrounds gray and my used links do not change color anymore. I've looked all over the Control Panel trying to find out how to change them back. I've reset preferences in IE9 but nothing changes.
