Tried doing a search and found no answer ...
I have a folder on my desktop; I went to View Options and changed the background color to light blue ("sky") and made sure "This window only" was checked. The window background color changes correctly.
If I close the folder window and re-open it, the color has changed to light purple ("lavender"). I change it back to light blue, the folder background changes, but as soon as the window is closed and opened again it's light purple again.
Funniest of all, if I instead change the color to DARK blue, when I close and re-open the folder the background is now DARK purple.
That was using the Crayola box for colors.
So next I tried using the eyedropper. I eye-dropped the window while it was open and set to the color I wanted. Closed the window, opened it again ... and now it's GREEN!
Went back to Crayola box ... if I pick "salmon" (pink) the window re-opens as "flora" (green)!
For some very bizarre reason, lemon yellow stays lemon yellow.
Setting it to white instead of colored works; setting it to an image instead of a color works. Setting it to a color (except, apparently, lemon yellow) means a random switch to another color.
