HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colorsīefore you modify the keys though, you need to decide which color you want to use for the selection box and then you need to find the RGB value for that color. Here you’re going to have to modify the value of two values. In the registry editor, go to the following location. In the run box, type ‘regedit’ to open the registry editor.
Use the Win+R keyboard shortcut to open the run box. It’s also a good idea to back up the registry keys you’ll be modifying though we will give you its default value that you can use to rest the selection color back to its default color. You will need admin rights to change the drag selection color.
