Hello,

I accidentally messed up the colors on my screen, taskbar, tabs, and despite my attempts, I can't find the original setting.
I am on Windows 10 with an ACER laptop.
Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance, best regards.

No problem, we'll do our best.

You can take inspiration from these settings to get started.

Taskbar:


The suite at the bottom of the page


Colors:

The suite at the bottom of the page


Colors suite → line to the right → High contrast settings

Alright, I'm going to start testing these settings! See you later!

I followed the settings you recommended: hooray, I found my "normal" colors again!
I shouldn't have checked the right boxes simultaneously between "contrast settings" and "colors," that's why it wasn't working.

A big thank you to you anyway!

Windows 10 can sometimes be confusing.
It’s great that you managed to get there.

You can create a restore point to avoid any mishaps.
Look here
Start by enabling system protection if it’s not already done.
Make sure to check after the major Windows Update updates, sometimes you need to do it again.

I must not have checked the right boxes
Make sure to check the right boxes in the future :-)

You can mark the discussion as resolved like this

Have a great end of the day.

I'll think about it! :-D But I'm probably luckier with computers than with the lottery: in the lottery, there's no Pistouri to give me the solution! lol
Good evening to you too and thanks again for the time dedicated!

lucky in computing as in the Lotto
You've made progress by coming to the Forum, that's what matters most.
I prefer the trifecta as a game, there are fewer numbers and I always play my birth date; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
@pistouri.
