Tutorial on changing the background color of Edge browser/app store startup in Win10

The built-in browser of win10 is the new Edge browser, and its startup icon is a blue "e". However, many users feel that this color is too single and hope that it can be changed at will. If you also download it, let’s take a look at how to change the startup background color of the Edge browser/app store in Win10.

Win10

The specific method is as follows:

1. Enter regedit in the Cortana search bar and press Enter to enter the Registry Editor.

2. Locate

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREClassesLocal SettingsSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppModelSystemAppDataMicrosoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbweSplashScreenMicrosoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe!MicrosoftEdge

Win10

3. Find the string value BackgroundColor on the right, double-click to modify the numerical data to change the color (as shown above)

Note that each RGB color has a corresponding code. For example, the default blue is #0078D7, the dark red in the picture above is #C00000, green can use #00b050, yellow #ffff00 is relatively pure, and there are also orange #e36c09 and purple #7030a0. For other color codes, you can search for "RGB color" by yourself.

In addition, if you don't want to color the application startup background separately, you can also directly enter transparent in the corresponding application background color BackgroundColor value data and use the system theme color for matching.

After modification, restart the Edge browser to see the effect. If you want to change back to the default color, reassign BackgroundColor to #0078D7.

One more thing, a few friends asked how to change the app store startup background color. In fact, the principle is the same. Just change the above path to the following location:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREClassesLocal SettingsSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppModelSystemAppDataMicrosoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbweSplashScreenMicrosoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App

Win10

As shown in the picture above, the default launch color of the app store is "transparent", which means that the system theme color is used, not the fixed color matching of the Edge browser. Therefore, if you do not want to color the application startup background separately, you can also directly enter transparent in the corresponding application background color BackgroundColor value data for matching. The same applies to other built-in applications.
