Change Accent Color In Windows 11 [Tutorial]

In this guide, you’ll learn the steps to choose a custom accent color on Windows 11, and how to set a custom color when setting a solid color desktop background.

Personalize the color of the Start button, Taskbar, and action center on your desktop by setting the Windows color to Dark or Custom. The Dark mode has a darker set of colors and is designed to work well in a low-lit environment. The Custom mode gives you more options somewhere in between light and dark. You can choose an accent color or have Windows select one (the accent color will provide a contrast with or match your wallpaper and Windows color). You can also show an accent color for window title bars (the horizontal bar at the top of a window) and borders. Play around with the colors and modes to see which ones work best for you.

However, if you're selecting an accent color for your desktop, you'll probably notice that the "Start, taskbar, and action center" is grayed out, so you can't use it. If this happens in your setup, it's not a bug. It's an expected behavior on Windows 11 if you're currently using the Light mode, and you can resolve this issue by making modifications to the personalization settings.
