Default when copying highlight color has changed to black. change to defau

But Control Panel is still on the main Start menu in all versions (at least
it is in Windows 7).

For what it's worth, you can display Control Panel via Start | Run.

I admire and second your caution, although the path to Control Panel in
recent versions of Windows may be even more iffy than right-clicking the
desktop! I have Windows 7 on my new laptop but haven't used it enough to
be completely sure of anything, and I have used Vista only a tiny bit, so
I'm really out of my depth there.

Good point. I actually right-click the desktop myself, but since I
wasn't sure about recent Windows versions I thought suggesting Control
Panel would be safer.

An easy way to get to Control Panel | Display (any version of Windows,
I think), is to right-click on the desktop and choose Properties.

This is a Windows setting which you can change in Control Panel. I
don't know the exact location for the newer Windows versions, but in
Windows XP, double-click Display (in Control Panel). On the Appearance
tab, click Advanced. In the list box, choose "Selected Items" and
specify the desired color. When you are done, click OK twice.

My highlight color has changed to black when I highlight to copy. I
would
like to change the color back to light blue.
