Yea this is really bs, i started age of empire by mistake and now my color are messed up and i can't figure out how to get back to normal :(

Please help lol i can't script anymore and this is really annoying.

Wrong section. But have you tried rebooting?

I can't remember how to do it exactly and I can't check as I've got Windows 8, but I think under Personalise there is something to do with bit colours? I know age of empires lowers the colours. >.<

But try rebooting if you haven't tried that first.

What graphics drivers do you have? I have nVidia drivers and I can change my color depth in the nVidia control panel. Intel and AMD graphics should have a control panel too.

Right click desktop -> screen resolution -> advanced settings -> whatever tab -> change your colour to 32 bit (I believe this is your problem)

beat me to it. Went to check my colours and kept trying to close your picture haha,
I have the option for 16bit, I presume my current 32bit is better?

I don't have the option to change my color depth in the monitor tab, I have to change mine in the nVidia control panel. lol

right click desktop > Personalise > Change theme to Windows Classic.

Got it, thanks :)

To prevent this from happening in the future, right click your AoE2 desktop shortcut, go to the Compatability tab, and check "Disable Desktop Composition". :)
