Hi young.
I just tested it for you, and the instructions work for me in Windows 11.

Did you put FF in front and did you choose Hexadecimal?

While I was testing it for you, I decided to change the background color for myself while I was at it.
I went with a grey background. RGB 120, 120, 120 #787878.
