Font Size:
1) RIGHT-click an empty area of the desktop.
2) Click Personalize
3) Click DISPLAY
4) There will be 2 or 3 choices there (e.g. 100%, 125%, 150%)
5) If you don't like the above choices, click Set custom text size (DPI).

Color and Font is set through the Control Panel --> Appearance and Personalization  settings.
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization\Window Color and Appearance
Click on Advanced appearance settings...

This is the problem that I have , I do not know what to choose from the scroll down options  for the name of the folder on the desktop. i.e.: Computer Problems is the name, , what selection do I need to choose and there are 2 color boxes on the right which one to choose. Furthermore , what do I need to do in order to change similarly the font type, size and color for -file bar,favorite bar, command bar and right click context menu. Is there a tutorial that you know of or simple steps on how to do this. Thanks
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

You do not do the changes you want from the " scroll down options  for the name of the folder ".  Follow the directions in my post above.
