Solved Changing background color and accent color
I am try to change the background color and accent color. I used to be able to go to "settings", then ""change PC settings" and it would have an option for "personalization". The only way I found to get to that was search for "accent".

Mallen,
If you have Windows 8.1, then you'll need to use OPTION ONE instead. Be sure to do it from your Start screen and not from your desktop. This location is critical.
OPTION TWO is no longer available in Windows 8.1.
