Color accentColor = Properties.Settings.Default.accentColor;
string color = accentColor.ToString();

Color accentColor = Properties.Settings.Default.accentColor;
string color = accentColor.ToString();

This returns "Color [Red]" How do I make it return "Red"?

by manipulating the string to cut out the parts you don't want, that's just how ToString works for that type

        public override string ToString() =>
            IsNamedColor ? $"{nameof(Color)} [{Name}]" :
            (state & StateValueMask) != 0 ? $"{nameof(Color)} [A={A}, R={R}, G={G}, B={B}]" :
            $"{nameof(Color)} [Empty]";

        public override string ToString() =>
            IsNamedColor ? $"{nameof(Color)} [{Name}]" :
            (state & StateValueMask) != 0 ? $"{nameof(Color)} [A={A}, R={R}, G={G}, B={B}]" :
            $"{nameof(Color)} [Empty]";
