open any folder, and you see three panels. one on the left for changing the directory. one on the bottom for details. one main window with all the files

i just want to change the default colors of these panels and the text without disabling aero. i was able to do this very easily in windows xp

i have been searching for methods to do this periodically over the years. i dont want to download some elaborate theme from deviantart. i tried playing with some convoluted style editor in the past, and i dont want to do that again. this should not be complicated and is a massive oversight on microsofts part.

please help, if anyone still is here
