Default Why are some of the Word doc titles in the color blue?

It's just that focusing on the color of the titles seemed odd, as
opposed to finding out what the color was indicating (and seeing that
that was probably a useful thing that didn't need fixing). Indeed I
learned that files _could_ be compressed precisely because someone
asked here what the blue meant. But see my first posting in this
thread for a rather dire result of turning compression loose on the
computer generally.

'compress files' several days earlier. *Therefore, I was perplexed and in
somewhat of a panic about why this occurred. *Was something wrong with my

things back to black, if that is what someone WISHES to do. *For me, every
day is a learning experience on my computer and I am very grateful to those
who are more knowledgeable that I am and who can help answer these questions.

What's wrong with having the titles in blue? It indicates that the
file is taking up less disk space, which seems like a good thing.

I did not read all the responses to your question but this is how I turned
the blue titles back to black
1. select a file that is blue
2.right click
3.click properties
4.click advanced
5.UNCHECK 'compress files to save disk space'
6.click OK
7. click apply
8.click OK


It worked for me. *I hope it helped you.

When I open Windoes Explorer and find all my saved documents, some of the
titles are in blue text rather than the default black. *I know this has
something to do with how I saved the document, but cannot recall how a blue
titled document is different from the others.


Thanx for your assistance.-
