The tweak changes the foreground and background colors for the Command Prompt window for the current session. To obtain the new look change the value to two-digit number, in which the first digit represents a background color and the second the foreground color.
For this, go to Start > Run menu, enter “regedit” and navigate to the registry path listed below. Now, create a DWORD value “DefaultColor” in the right panel. Right-click it and modify the data value to “F0” to give black text on a white background to enable the setting, however you can opt to your desired color coding, and “0” to give standard white text on a black background to disable the setting.
The other hexadecimal codes are:
| Hexadecimal Value | Color |
| 0 | Black |
| 1 | Blue |
| 2 | Green |
| 3 | Aqua |
| 4 | Red |
| 5 | Purple |
| 6 | Yellow |
| 7 | White |
| 8 | Gray |
| 9 | Light Blue |
| A | Light Green |
| B | Light Aqua |
| C | Light Red |
| D | Light Purple |
| E | Light Yellow |
| F | Light White |
Restart Command Prompt for the changes to take effect.
