To change the selected color in Windows 10, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the PC Settings by pressing the Windows Key + I on your keyboard. This will open the Settings menu.

2. In the Settings menu, click on “Personalization” to access the Personalize section.

3. In the left pane of the Personalize section, you will see various options. Select the “Start Screen” option.

4. Now, on the right side of the screen, you will find a color bar that allows you to pick your favorite color.

5. Click on the color bar to open the color palette. You can choose a color by either clicking on the desired color or dragging the color picker to a specific shade.

6. As you select a color, you will immediately see the changes applied to the Start Screen in the background. This way, you can preview how the color scheme will look before finalizing your selection.

7. Once you are satisfied with the color, you can simply close the Settings menu, and the chosen color scheme will be applied to your Windows 10 Start Screen.

It’s worth noting that changing the selected color in Windows 10 only affects the Start Screen and certain interface elements. It does not change the color of all applications or windows.

Additionally, if you prefer a more customized appearance, you can further personalize your Start Screen by adding or removing tiles, resizing them, or organizing them into groups.

Windows 10 offers a variety of customization options, allowing you to personalize your device to suit your preferences and make it feel more personalized and visually appealing to you.
