Set desktop color in Windows 10 to white?

Is it possible to set the color of the desktop in Windows 10 to "white"? There is only a small set of predefined colors without white. Ok, I can just use a blank white JPEG. But is this really the way Microsoft intended to deal with it?

After trying this one, I found another solution in the Microsoft community. Just wanted to share it:

  • Open a run prompt with WIN+R
  • Paste: control /name Microsoft.Personalization /page pageWallpaper
  • Select "Solid Colors"
  • Click "More". This should lead to an RGB input.

Worked perfectly for me and gave me a few additional options.

  • Open Regedit
  • Navigate to HKCU\Control Panel\Colors\Background
  • Modify setting = 255 255 255
  • Reboot (or logout-login)
