- To change the color of the dotted underline that indicates smart tags, use the SmartTagUnderlineColor registry entry.
Exit Registry Editor, and then restart your computer.
The registry uses eight-digit hexadecimal values to define colors. The values for some common colors are indicated in the following table.
