That is the 'simpler' styling in Windows 10.
Mine is the same.

Ken,
Do you mean that the top border on various panels eg "This PC" " Documents" or the property box and many others in FH is white and not coloured?
Mine were white when I first got my win 10 computer. To change the white top border to a colour go "settings" "personalisation" then "colours". Then choose your colour and then tick the box "title bars".

Hello Peter

No, not on the PC on the box's that i show on the attachment, all to do with FH. Its strange that i have Windows 10 on a laptop and the headings are blue but not on my new desktop Windows 10???

Thank you Peter

Can you post the laptop version so we can see the difference.

What about the top borders on other desktop apps? Are they like FH, or like the laptop?

Like Peter, I suspect you customised Windows 10 on laptop (and have forgotten), so need to do the same on desktop.

Hello Peter and tatewise.

I checked my laptop version 10 against my desktop version 10 by going into settings as you said Peter and yes you was right it was the "Title bars" that needed to be ticked and that put the colour back on to FH, so thank you both for the answer and for making me look more closely at what i should have looked at when Peter told me.

You have made an old man very happy, have a great day gentlemen.
