Windows 8 style is purple

I can't change it to the original for some reason

So, as you might have read in the title, my Windows 10 (which uses the Windows 8 interface thanks to Stardock)'s user interface is purple. I was goofing around yesterday and thought purple looked good (I regret my choice now). I want it to look EXACTLY like a Windows 8, but whenever I try changing the color, it won't change.

Thanks.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Need more information on your system. Windows 10 full version numbers. You're using Windowblinds, yes? If so, which version and which WB theme you have on? Did you modify something via Windowblinds "modify style" panel? Do you have Start11 or Start10? Which version? What you actually mean by "interface is purple"? If would be easier if you could post some screenshots.

Thanks

Using WindowBlinds, had the original Windows 8 style, I modified something via modify style.

I'm using the XP style for now, but I can show you what it looks like if I put on Windows 8 style

(this is the stardock preview but in purpel)

If its Windowblinds you should try select "none" refer screenshot below and that should reset the color back to normal. Don't forget to click on the "Apply style to desktop" for it to change.

Thank you,

I noticed your post and would be interested in a Windows 8 style start screen, but I dont see that as an option in Start11 under the start menu options.  Am I misreading this?  Or do in need a different product?

Charris, on Start10, or start 11, try this:

 

Choose the window 7 style

and the windows 7 style substyle, not the win7 grid

See if that works for you.

Actually for Windows 8 Style you will need to use the "Modern style" that one is more closer to Windows 8 if compared to Windows 7 style.
