    Hi again. The loss of your color was because one of the 'Ease of Access' settings (apply color filter) had been inadvertently turned on. There are other settings in that area that may also have been turned on at the same time.

    Go to Settings > Ease of Access > Color & high contrast. I suspect you may have one of the high contrast themes currently selected. If so, set it to 'none' to get back to a normal Windows. The Ease of Access settings are mostly intended to help those with poor eyesight.

    If it's not that, then you may have the 'Dark' theme currently selected...
