Getting standalone 524sh monitor back to either not transparent or to it's original display setup

[60091]

I have a HP 524sh Monitor on my OmniBook 14" laptop.  I followed the directions  for the monitor to install the monitor.  The Display Center doesn't seem to have taken on my laptop.  I was trying to change the monitor from the black setup it has to the traditional white setup that I'm accustomed to.  At this point I have managed to make the monitor show things with translucence which I don't want.  I've tried turning off the translucence in the settings but that isn't working (yes, I restarted the computer).  At this point I just want to get the monitor back to it's original settings but it's refusing to do that too. 

Thank you.

@60091, Welcome to HP Support Community,

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

First, try resetting your display settings in Windows. Right-click on the desktop and select Display settings. Scroll down and click on Advanced display settings. Then, click on Display adapter properties for Display. In the window that opens, go to the Color Management tab and click on Color Management. Ensure the color profile is set to default, like sRGB. If there’s a custom profile, reset it to default.

If the HP Display Center isn't working correctly, you might want to reinstall it. Go to Device Manager > Expand Monitors, right-click on your monitor, and select Uninstall device. Restart your laptop, and Windows should automatically reinstall the monitor drivers. After that, check if the HP Display Center allows you to reset the monitor settings.

If the translucency is still active, try turning it off. Go to Settings > Personalization > Colors and scroll down to toggle transparency effects off.
