How to increase contrast of Windows 7 Menu Item highlight

How to increase contrast of Windows 7 Menu Item highlight The Windows 7 menu item highlight effect is quite subtle - on my machine, menu items go from light grey to having a light blue shading. This makes it quite hard to tell at a glance which exact menu item is highlighted at any one time. You can see an example (from Firefox) here:

You're talking about the "hot tracking color", and it's annoying to me as well. For some reason, you cannot change it in Windows 7, and MS chose to make it a near undetectable color.

"This can be changed using a registry hack.

From a command prompt type ""regedit""
In the registry editor window find the following key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors\HotTrackingColor

The color format is: RRR GGG BBB

The range of each field is 0-255.

Black: 0 0 0

Bright Red: 255 0 0

Bright Blue: 0 0 255

Gray: 128 128 128

White: 255 255 255"

I found that rather than "Selected Items", changing the color of 3D objects fixed my highlighting problems, while maintaining the Aero theme elsewhere.

"It may be an all-out, but changing the theme to Windows Classic (right click on the desktop and select Personalize ) results in this in Firefox:

On Windows 7 Starter (for netbooks) it is Start menu -> Control Panel -> Change colour scheme -> choose Windows Classic -> OK. Or just type scheme right after choosing the start menu and select Change colour scheme."
