Today’s quick tech tip….
If you’re colorblind, this Windows feature might help
Colorblindness affects hundreds of millions of people world-wide to one degree or another, ranging all the way from a minor red-green deficiency to the complete inability to distinguish colors at all.
If you have some degree of colorblindness and you have trouble seeing things on your computer screen, both Windows 10 and Windows 11 have a feature called Color Filters that might help.
I won’t go into step-by-step detail here with instructions for using it because it’ll involve using a fair amount of trial-and-error until you find the settings that work best for you, but this Microsoft Support page has all the info you need to get started.
Just select either the Windows 10 or Windows 11 tab for instructions that match your Windows version.

Rick’s Daily Pick…
Acer 21.5 Inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) IPS Monitor (#ad)
Regular readers of my blog knows I’m a huge advocate for using multiple monitors with a PC.
The thing is, that second (or third) monitor doesn’t have to cost the equivalent of a king’s ransom. For example, this one can be had for about a hundred buck, and possibly less.
