Windows XP color change

I turned on my computer this morning, I run windows XP, and shortly after my taskbar and window surrounds has changed color from blue to silver. My computer has been infected or is it the result of an automatic upgrade?

Hi TrainMadLisa,

·         Remember to make changes?

With your description, it seems like it might be the theme that has changed. Check to see if the following is useful.

a. right click on the desktop of your computer. Make sure you do right click on the task bar.

b. Select 'Properties' from the drop-down list. This opens a dialogue window where you can customize the appearance.

c. Select the "Appearance" tab

d. click the "Color ThΦme" dropdown and choose between silver and blue, olive.

e. click "Apply" when you have chosen a color. Your computer will take a few moments to make the changes.

  • Firefox color title bar non active windows 10 color

    I stopped using Firefox, even if I like it because when it is the Active window in Windows 10, the title of Firefox bar stays gray instead of lighting upward with Active Windows 10 color I selected for the operating system Windows 10. I am aware of the Firefox themes, but I do not want the module. Themes, such as the default Firefox title bar, never change color to indicate that it is the active window. I sometimes Firefox several windows open and she becomes confused when all these gray bars at the top of windows Explorer are all the same color when I need one that is currently active stands out compared to all the others. My 2nd favorite is browser Chrome and this beautifully if unfortunately I use Chrome now. I hope that Firefox will change their current practice of "painting" on by default, the active title bar set by the operating system with a static gray bar and let Windows set the Active window apart from all others! Then I will return happily to use Firefox as I have for many years.

    I found a solution that I thought I'd post here in case others do not like the title bar gray of Firefox. Is to create a folder in the AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\{filename}.default region and create a folder called Chrome and a file inside this folder called userChrome.css. Once I pasted into the code and saved the file and restarted Firefox, when it came to the title bar is now picking up reflecting the color of the active window, I put for objects window Windows 10. I don't know if there will be repercussions because of this, but. If anyone is interested, here is the link: http://www.askvg.com/tip-get-colored-titlebar-back-in-mozilla-firefox-in-windows-10/ it's really too bad Firefox chooses hide the default color of Windows for the active window to help distinguish this window of all the other windows (inactive). I would like to know the reason for this decision and why I resorted to hunt her down, creation and installation code to achieve what should be the default behavior. Disadvantage of 11/09/16-one UPDATE that I've noticed with this approach is the tabs do not easily distinguish without borders/lines/plan and the color of the tab is the same color as the window title bar active Windows. To improve this, I used an add-on, I used before but had stopped using. It's called colorful tabs and it does the job to change the color of each tab, so they stand out against the background color in the title bar.

  • Background color changes when you save a theme

    Just did a new install of Windows 7 Home Premium and has found that, when I save a theme, the background color changes from black (what it was worth) to white. Another thing to note is that when I save the generic theme "Custom Theme" (meaning an unsaved theme) remains, and the background color in the registered theme is changed and does not change when I click on the "custom theme". This is a new installation, so the only software that has been installed is video drivers, network cards drivers, the drivers of the antivirus and sounds. I've used the System File Checker, and he found no problem.

    If you are tweening text, select the text > click Modify > break is > change > to break.

    then, you can tween the text (which is converted into forms twice using 'split').

  • Color changes during the recording of the PSD to JPEG

    Hi all

    When I export the image below of psd to jpeg color changes.

    The rose becomes Purple!

    2016-08-27_22-47-24.jpg

    Any help would be appreciated

    Just to be absolutely clear on this point - the problem here is that the file is in ProPhoto RGB.

    Windows 'Photos' isn't the color management and cannot represent a ProPhoto file correctly. No more than any other application without color management.

    Convert sRGB. It is the right answer to your question (which is the error of the very common beginner, BTW).

    In Photoshop, go to Edition > convert to profile > sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1.

    If you're Using "export as" or "Save for Web", just check the box convert to sRGB.

  • Except for the color change of the Web of gifs

    I'm trying to 'save for web' a gif, and I get a change of color each time. I changed my color settings so that it is set to RGB monitor and it is extracted under test format as well. On the Save for Web window, making sure that "Convert to sRGB" is checked as well.

    Despite all this, the color change always happens. Here is a screenshot of my color settings:

    Screen Shot 2016-07-19 at 10.48.33 AM.png

    Is there something I can do to fix this? Thank you in advance!

    Saving as a gif you are inevitably reduce your color up to 256 colors gamet and so according to your original image you can result in a change of color simply by there. You must however not use your display profile in your color settings. If you want to put something on the web or in an application that is not color has managed the best choice is sRGB. Try these settings.

  • color change

    Now and then my color space seems to change on its own, and I can't figure out how to recover from the previous color space.

    The last time that happened, I was 'save for web' and that he was trying different settings of sRGB checked and unchecked. This might have caused the problem, but I do not know why because it is not the color of the recorded image which is at issue. It is the color space of the PSD file that has changed somewhat. The change is that the colours are duller and seem more washed out.

    I know that this has happened when I was not "save for the web." It seemed to me that I was trying to copy or paste or by using a different combination of keys when all of a sudden all the colors changed and I could not get back them. Cancel or cancel using the history does nothing to recover the original colors.

    It drives me crazy. I just spent an amazing amount of time - week (Yes, weeks) in fact - perfecting of colors for a site color scheme complex and out of nowhere my colors are completely foires. So I understand what happened and get back my original colors.

    I read in the forum about the possibility of having changed color settings; so I saved the file under a new name and tried other color settings, but that has not changed a thing. And if I look at the other files based on the file that has messed up (but which have original colors), color in both files settings alike. I also watched test and test colors and saw that the settings are the same as in the other case where the colors are not screwed up.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the tips. But I has not changed anything in the color settings except in the window of the Web. That's when I left the save for web I noticed that all my colors had changed. But then again, this happened with other files and seemed to have occurred after use of key combinations such as cut and paste. I must have clicked the wrong key. But even when I closed the file without saving changes and then reopened, he still had the washed out colors. So SOMETHING changed, I just can't understand what this thing.

    FOUND ANSWER

    It's embarrassing, but in this case, I found out something that I had moved into my open file was applied curves that touched all colors because it was near the top of the layers. I guess I didn't notice because I was zoomed in on an element. After I saved for the Web and closed the window, I noticed the color changes. In this case, it was an easy solution. But what happened before and I know it wasn't because of the curves or similar settings. Something happened which washed out/desaturated colours. I'll figure that one another day.

    But thanks to all who responded. At least I learned a few things

  • The objects will not retain any color defined when the surrounding objects have their color changed

    Just Illustrator CC 19.0.0 was downloaded to me. When I place a line and then set its color, close objects can also have their color changed. This includes the items in the file of until I added the line, not on the same map-art objects. It is not universal, nor is it compatible. Objects already in the file are perhaps there for months, but a change is close will change their.

    The Illustrator files can still be an earlier version, and there were a number of illustrations that had black lines and text to white turned a few months back. As these illustrations are for a book, being unable to guarantee that the colors will stay together long enough to complete the illustration and export it tends to make unusable Illustrator for tasks of editions. I hope that InDesign and Photoshop do not have the same questions!

    nwjh,

    You must update to 19.1 (or 19.1.1 for Windows) or 19.2 (lattethe has some problems, then you can start with the former).

    If 19.1 (or 19.2) does not appear, disconnect and then reconnect the creative cloud application. After that, the 19.1 update must be visible in the creative application of Cloud.

  • Colors change when the downloaded on Youtube (desaturated)

    I found an old discussion about the same question, but it was not an answer.

    My videos colors change when I upload them on Youtube. Colors are desaturated roughly. I can solve the problem of really saturated video rendering, but y at - it another way to avoid the colors to change?

    I use first cs6 and Windows pro. I used the h.264 settings, but I think that I had this same problem with other parameters too (but not sure). Should I try with other rendering parameters or wrong my creation parameters?

    Thank you!

    Problem solved! Somehow, the problem was my internet browser, Google Chrome. With other browsers, I don't have the problem of color. And after you reinstall chrome it works also very well with Chrome.

  • Change color or color change?

    I'm changing this white area in colors more surrounding blue clothing.

    Do not know what would be the best tool to do this

    Change color or change color.

    But change color does not seem to have a place to change the color OF.  At least I don't see a color picker to change the color of...  And I don't see a slider that will allow me to choose a color to change it too. (I'm sure it's to look at me.)

    Color change, even if I use the pipette on the white area, then select the blue of clothing as his replacement, I can not just the white area to change to blue. (I even tried to change to red, without a bit of luck.)

    White is more difficult to change a color simply change a 'true' color (I see these tutorials about chaning pink red to pink blue and it seems to work very well in the tutorials.  But I have no luck with this white area.

    Any suggestions?

  • How can I keep windows update to change the location of folders of rediredcted

    My work computer is in a domain.  I am running Windows XP Pro SP3.  Due to the large size of the 'My pictures' folder I redirected it to on of my local readers rather than let him lie on our server (Windows 2003 SBS).  I also redirected "My music" folder on a local drive and the 'My Favorites' folder on the server where the "My Documents" folder is also.  It works very well without any problem, most of the time.  In some way, some, but not all, windows updates will change the location of the "My pictures" folder on the server.  When this happens, I know that as soon as I login after the reboot because it will take about an hour before the computer can be used.  The reason for this is that the folder is moved (not copied) on the server with a connection to ethernet 100 base-T.  My another stay of redirected folders where they are supposed to be, just the 'My pictures' folder is moved.  I tried to find all the registry entries that have to do with the location of this folder and found only two, those who originally, I changed to redirect the folder in the first place.  This has happened for the 4th time, when I greeted Windows Update to install the latest updates last night (13/02/13).  It becomes very boring and time would trust because I have to put the folder on the local drive and reset the folder redirection and the whole process takes about an hour, plus time lost after reboot.  Help please.
