the background squares.
Tip: The blue slider is often difficult to adjust
because it’s much more difficult to see subtle
changes in blue than in red or green. If you

the gray appear more yellow or more blue as
you move it. Move the slider until the gray
desktop appears neutral.
When you’ve adjusted the color to your
satisfaction, click the right arrow to proceed.

complete, the Finished screen appears:
