Try this 1.

Click on the below link and download the Notepad++

Install it --> Open the Notepad++ --> Click on "Settings" --> Select "Style

Configuration --> Check the check boxes "Enable global foreground color" &

"Enable global foreground color" --> Select your Foreground & Background color

--> Save & Close.

Good Luck.

Thank you, jack4rall 5

Travid is right, you could have changed the color settings of your Command Prompt but in Notepad, there are no such features available.

Thanks.
