JSI Tip 6008. How do I change the Color that Windows Explorer uses to display selected objects?

When you point to an object in Windows Explorer, the object is displayed in the Hot Tracking Color.

To alter this color, set the Red, Green, and Blue values into HotTrackingColor, a string (REG_SZ) data value, at

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors.

The format is RRR GGG BBB.

To set the the Hot Tracking Color to Green, set HotTrackingColor to 0 255 0.
