How t ochange the colour of this bar - help!
Hi all,
so much good info here, been playing with modifications all day now.
I need help identify where is this colour in the pic modified.(!?)
For the world, I can't seem to find it anywhere, been at it for quite awhile now so why not ask the collective?
Thank you all for your help!

Think it is a windows thing\theme. Active\Inactive colour or something.
Reaper does not mess around with it though, as it is a GUI thing.

Close but no cigar (yet)
@Pashkuli
Indeed you are correct, it turns out it is a Windows property.
And guess what? Windows Aero scheme for THAT value is broken.
In AeroLite it works fine (yes, I dug VERY deep into this, unfortunately) but other GUI elements in OS are totally off so it is unusable.
@RogerDolk
Thanks for suggestion! I must admit, "make restore point" with exclamation mark does not bring much confidence yet, if you are using it than I just might give it a shot.
Visually photosensitive, like me and all others, are still to be addressed on a global scale I guess.
//Observation and sadness (instead of rant)
I just wish I knew what internal call Reaper uses to call THAT window, I just might identify it directly in registry (yes, there is a registry entry!) that I am still unable to correctly identify in trial an error process that is sooooo lengthy and painstaking). Maybe there is a resource here where a Reaper programmer could help me? Than, I'd just change that value(s) and move on.
Point here is, all of the sudden, this is FAR more complicated than it should be.
//Observation over (#Disabled #Inclusion #photosensitive)
With all that said, thank you both for your suggestions, they were both good pointers that I'm grateful for. (Still not solved tho')

SOLVED - Change inactive window colour
I just couldn't let it go.
Finally, made a search again and immediately, on first link, I got my answer.
I will post link here, to respect the author.

Not to mention the whole Windows OS is really clumsy.... but after 40 years it works somehow. I remember in WinXP we could do some changes to GUI, then it was gone.
