Re: Desktop turned orange after Ink Desktop

About that orange screen...

The orange screen appears when Ink Desktop is trying to refresh its display.
You'll most often see it right when you boot and occasionally when you
rotate the screen or change your screen resolution. It usually goes away
quickly once Ink Desktop has finished loading, but sometimes you need to
help it along. Hitting F5 (if the desktop has focus) or opening and closing
the docked Input Panel will often do the trick. See the readme for more
information (readme can be opened from Explore the Experience Pack > Home >
Read more about the pack > View the Readme File).

The orange color doesn't have anything to do with your current desktop
settings. And, as far as I know, there's no way to change it to a different
color.
