Tabs don't change color on their own. You have to do that intentionally
by editing an account and setting a color. This has nothing to do with
filters.
Make sure that Preferences > Register Defaults > Number of transactions
is set to ZERO to show all transactions.
While you mentioned the "Show All" on the Filter by... > Date tab, check
the Status tab also and check all that apply to *show*. (I always show
all transactions, and that might be a good place to start, then uncheck
those you later don't want to hide)
The file list is not inaccessible. The location is documented on the
Wiki. (and in threads here on the list)

I'm aware of the filter function accessible from the context
(right-click) menu when in registers. The filters are selected for
"all", in other words, no filtering. But one would think those filter
selections would determine which transactions show, but in my case, only
those after the current date appear. The register tab appears green,
which seems to indicate a filter is being applies. I see no switches to
turn that filtering off. In Windows, there is a hidden folder called
appdata, and a subfolder called roaming. In that, there is the gnucash
folder with its own subfolders. I see a link to this in the Gnu Cash
"help/about" screen. The files are user-editable. One of the
subfolders called "books" has a list of the files I have created with
Gnu Cash. But the file menu of Gnu Cash has a list of recently-opened
files just above the "close" and "quit" options. That list includes
file names that are not in "books" subfolder, so that list of previously
opened files has to be stored somewhere. When I open Gnu Cash, and it
wants to open a file that has been deleted, a prompt appears asking if I
want to delete the file name from the list, indicating that this list
has to be stored somewhere. I suspect this data, including the data
that is filtering my register, is stored in an inaccessible hidden file
somewhere.
