Hello,

After a very good joke from a friend, he activated high contrast on my PC.
Since then, I can't turn it off completely; I've tried using the shortcut ALT + LEFT SHIFT + Print Screen or even manually disabling it in the high contrast settings, or unchecking the high contrast box in Control Panel > Ease of Access, but nothing works. I'm experiencing display bugs on the icons in the bottom right of my screen and in my Excel files...

So I'd like to know how to completely disable this option or restore the default settings.

Thank you in advance for your responses, hoping to find a solution without having to format my computer.

    System Restore.
    ==► Restore Windows from a restore point

    PS :
    I find that you are very quick to check the high contrast settings. (Go back)
