Is it possible to turn of the new tile background colours in the Windows 8.1 Update?
I don't want to use a third party app but I'd be okay with modifying the registry if it can get rid of these terrible colours.

I don't think there is a registry tweak for this, why not go for the third party tool ? things can get really easy if you consider ,
Stardock has recently released beta version of Decor8 to support windows 8.1, you can use this awesome tool to get rid of the custom colours of the tiles , here is a link which gives a tutorial and download outlet
Or you can use OblyTile for Windows 8.1 , here is a tutorial on this tool , it lets you create your own tiles, with colours of your choice, icons, images etc

I guess my issue is that all the third party stuff I've seen are custom tiles. I just want the coloured feature turned off. I don't want to create new tiles. Also, I'd like the minimum amount of software on my computer necessary. – Vian Esterhuizen – 2013-10-23T15:43:49.430
This is a good question. Any luck? – MDT Guy – 2013-10-22T14:50:11.800
