When you select multiple items in Windows 10, on the desktop, or in the file explorer, you see that a blue box is formed. This box is the one that tells us that we are selecting these files. Although if we want, we have the possibility of changing the color of said box, for another that we want. There is a trick that makes it possible.
Personalization in Windows 10 is really extensive, since we can change many things in the operating system. This also includes this box that appears when we select files on the computer. The steps to follow it are not really complicated. Although you have to pay attention to what you do.
For that, we have to use the Windows 10 registry editor. Therefore, in the search engine in the start bar we must write regedit. An option with that name will appear, which causes that command to be executed. When this editor is opened we have to go to the following path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Control Panel \ Colors which is where we can carry out the next step.
So, we have to look for the input that it's called HotTrackingColor. In it we will have to enter the RGB value of the color that we want to use. To do this, to be able to know this, we can search for it online, there are web pages for it. So we just have to enter that value in the box.
Then you have to locate another entry called Highlight, in which to re-enter the same RGB value as in the previous case. When we have done this, we can restart Windows 10 without problems. So these changes are going to be saved. When we restart, we will see that the changes are already true.
So when we select multiple files on desktop or file explorer, the painting will have the color we have chosen. A simple trick that allows you to customize another aspect in Windows 10.
